ANIMAL VS. HUMAN RESOURCES

Americans euthanize millions of stray dogs that rarely harm us but illegal migrants who rob, rape and kill us are welcomed and supported.

That is the epitome of American stupidity! No wolf, horse, or barnyard bull would tolerate such a takeover! What has happened to American pride and leader protection? Robert F. Kennedy Jr., President Trump’s pick for Health Secretary, is a good example of understanding animals and protecting the environment.

In fact, along with a love of falconry and dogs, he once adopted a bear cub! So, we can be sure that Robert Kennedy and other insightful leaders understand nature and why animals are critical indicators of world health. In fact, many in-the-know politicians blame industrial agriculture for making so many of us fat and sick.

One respected politician stated that “agriculture generates one-fourth of the greenhouse gases that heat up the planet.” Maybe so but given that plants make oxygen that made no sense to me. At the current pace of clearing land for new construction, half of our forests will be gone by 2050.

Without intervention, humans and animals are doomed to suffer from too much concrete and not enough trees and too many scientists who cover up the dismal facts of too much waste and not enough room for landfills.

Environmentalists are beginning to worry about their family’s future. The United Nations reports the current population does approximately 3 trillion$$$ in damage to the global environment per year.

Landfills are running over and seeping substances into our water supplies that do a lot more than pollute.

Think a minute… plants give off oxygen but there are fewer plants that live long enough to keep things in balance. Agricultural production is reduced by our demand for more roads, buildings and factories, all of which pollute the air. You got it already! All that “growth” (i.e. concrete) depletes the number of oxygen-producing trees and plants.

We rejoice over medical advances which extend human life but that is a catch-22 if we can’t breathe… and if that doesn’t worry you, equally dire predictions are that by 2050 we will also find it difficult to adequately feed nearly 10 billion people. But that is a distraction! The simple fact is that all mammals breathe oxygen and exhale carbon dioxide (CO2) so there must be more plants than animals or we die.

It is a simple equation. You get it. If we continue to reduce plants while increasing air-breathing mammals (humans) the critical balance is destroyed. It is said that factory farms are the best hope for producing the food we will need. That is a distraction, a fabrication invented by the growers.

We must have greenery and balance on this planet. Sure, we can import food from “less developed” countries but www.TheDogPress.com hopes we have a quick solution because when people and animals outnumber plants, we better hope Elon Musk can space-ship us out’a here!
