And the best way to do that is for humans to be eliminated completely, according to the following graphic from a report on TimesOnline, which shows the estimated time required for the disappearance of man’s traces and the recovery of the planet.

The UN’s Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) recently released a report on their study of the causes and effects of global warming and the news is not good for the planet -

• IPCC Fourth Assessment Report
• UN delivers definitive warning on dangers of climate change
• Global warming: the final warning
• Humans ‘Very Likely’ Making Earth Warmer 
• Ten years left to avert catastrophe
• Carbon dioxide rate is at highest level for 650,000 years

I hope we are able to slow down or reverse this trend in the coming years through some of the following ways -

• use of cleaner fuels
• recycling
• conserving energy
• reforestation
• more environment friendly procedures/processes
• other recommended steps
• and most importantly lots of awareness

Let’s hope for a cleaner, greener tomorrow.
