Every effort counts," the European Commission said on its Twitter account. The plans to heal the sick planet are as ambitious as ever, but their realization is a completely different story
If you compare the anthropomorphic figurines from Lepenski Vir with those found by archaeologists in Vinča, from a probably related but half-millennium later and significantly more developed Neolithic culture, you will notice how the Vinča female figurines are slimmer and with a more harmonious stature. Scientists would say that this is because with the development of trade, the ideal of beauty changed, and so did the representations in prehistoric cults of fertility, from which a whole network of religious beliefs in the Great, Triple or White Goddess of the Earth would later grow.
Thus, the goddess Gaia will change throughout the millennia, from her large forms in the Stone Age to the thin legs of the Hellenistic goddesses, following the changes of the world itself and the technological progress of people who will worship her less and less over the centuries, despite the fact that she will become thinner and thinner. more attractive.
But what does Gaea look like today, when she has gone from being an all-seeing titan who controls the forces of the planet to most people being just a letter in the archaeological lexicon? If we continue the series and compare her with the state of her astronomical model at the beginning of the 21st century, we will not only find Gea broken and faded from anorexia, but seriously poisoned and infected with all kinds of infections, accompanied by chronic high blood pressure, low lung capacity and water coming on.
The doctor's thermometer shows that her temperature has been seriously elevated for several decades. And still growing. She can soon be expected to cross the line where she will have severe bouts of fever and start a thermoregulatory feedback loop in an attempt to fight off the tumor that is destroying her.
This was 13 years ago on the occasion of Earth Day, which is celebrated on April 22, in the text entitled "Skinny Goddess Health Record" written by Slobodan Bubnjević.
Ambitious plans
Meanwhile, planet Earth's health bulletin is even worse, but that's why plans to heal it are even more ambitious and urgent. According to Radio Free Europe (RSE), the European Union says that Europe will become the first climate-neutral continent by 2050 in accordance with the European Green Plan.
"Our commitment: a climate-neutral continent by 2050. With our European Green Plan, we are investing in our planet to fight the effects of climate change." Every effort is important," the European Commission said on its Twitter account.
Because the Earth is facing a "triple planetary crisis": climate disruption, loss of nature and biodiversity, and pollution and waste, warns the United Nations
"This triple crisis threatens the well-being and survival of millions of people around the world." The foundations of a happy and healthy life are clean water, fresh air and a stable and predictable climate - all of which are disrupted, putting the goals of sustainable development at risk," UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres said in a video message on the occasion of Earth Day.
This day has been officially celebrated since 1992, when a far-reaching program for the promotion of sustainable development was coordinated during the UN Conference on Environment and Development in Rio de Janeiro, which was attended by a large number of representatives of governments and non-governmental organizations.
