@BrightFuture814 Unsustainable global population growth is not inevitable.

@BrightFuture814 A3. lets see, technologically, on a cost per Watt basis, solar energy is the most expensive electricity-generation method when compared to hydro, coal, nuclear and even wind power. #BrightFuture

4th industrial revolution will affect us as individuals and members of communities, the same all 3 other revolutions did in the past. so, yes, "gradually" is the best way to go

@BrightFuture814 If our numbers are growing at this rate, the value of every other action we take risks being cancelled out by the demands and needs of new people joining the population.

@BrightFuture814 @Yemin78698395 great to know #BrightFuture

@growgreenstuff @BrightFuture814 Two hundred years ago, there were less than a billion people on Earth. Today, there are 7.8bn and our population is still growing. According to the United Nations, unless we act there is likely to be 30% more of us by 2050 and 11 billion people by 2100.

I wish I could say a definitely yes, however in new York is quite difficult still. Solar power has tripled in the U.S. in the last two years, with another American family or business going solar every four minutes, slower in NY

@BrightFuture814 Because of industry, agriculture and fossil fuel use, carbon dioxide in the air is at its highest level for millions of years. At the same time, disruption of other chemical cycles is turning seas and rivers into dead zones.

[daniela @daniela63726428]

@growgreenstuff @BrightFuture814 Every one of us places demands upon our planet—the very demands that have caused the changes that threaten us and the natural world we depend on.

[daniela @daniela63726428]

@growgreenstuff We can and must ease the pressure on our world. As individuals and communities, we can act such as buying less, reusing and recycling more, moving towards a plant-based diet and ensuring what we do use and consume is as sustainable as possible.

[daniela @daniela63726428]

@growgreenstuff United Nations projections show that if we start acting now, we can end it and start bringing our numbers down to a more sustainable level within the next few decades.

Hi Richard, classmate Daniela here #reverttheanthropocene
This can be an expensive process, but homeowners should keep in mind that there are a number of tax rebates available for people who install solar systems.#BrightFuture

[Richard Mayers @BrightFuture814]

Please reply with A1 and end with #BrightFuture. Also feel free to introduce yourself!

Q1. What is your opinion on changing from normal utility electricity to solar power?

[daniela @daniela63726428]

@BrightFuture814 Only five times before in our planet’s history have so many species and so much biodiversity been lost so quickly. The fifth was when the dinosaurs were wiped out. That is why scientists and conservationists call what is happening now the ‘sixth mass extinction’.
