Hey! Ice Melting and Oceans Rising! Is it True?

Hey! Ice Melting and Oceans Rising! Is it True? This is GreenDustries’ fourth blog following our blog titled “Humans Change the World!” and is part of the series of the same name that started with that post. With the posting form serious Scientific Sources such as NASA and others to substantiate our articles we are bringing you a new aspect of "How Humans are Changing the World". Today we will approach the "melting ice's poles": the cause and effects. "The Marine Echo System is changing in the High Artic. The species that have chosen to live in harsh conditions rely on the cold and ice to survive. Lately there is not a day that goes by without seeing the Polar Ice melting and the ice getting thinner. This seems so far away for those of us who live in a tempered climate... Read more [...]

All these Earthquakes, who or what is responsible?

All these Earthquakes, who or what is responsible? In our blog from November 24, 2011, GreenDustries discussed the fact that “Humans Change the World”. What took 4 billion years to evolve is vanishing in the blink of an eye. In our blog posted on December 8, 2011 we discussed how the “industrial revolution” has made our lives very easy and at the same time is destroying our planet. Starting with mining for commodities such as minerals, metals and rocks, let’s not forget all the underground nuclear explosions and the pumping of oil, our planet is looking more and more like swiss cheese and it is letting us know through: earthquakes, volcanoes and the increase of CO2...

What’s under our feet? The Earth’s structure is a bit like an egg. Did you know?

The Earth's structure is a bit like an egg. Did you know? To be clear in our explanation of what cause "Climate Change" and what it's have to do with us, we need to start with the real beginning: Planet Earth. Everything happen there and to grasp what is our challenge we need to know exactly what we are talking about. Physical life start and finish here. "In the very beginning of earth's history, this planet was a giant, red hot, roiling, boiling sea of molten rock - a magma ocean. Read more [...]

“Climate Change” What does it mean to me? What is it caused by?

The Industrial Revolution brought us Climate Change. After the Industrial Revolution we became a society of “instant gratification”. The industrial revolution made our life very easy and at the same time is destroying our planet. From the mining for commodities like: minerals, metals and rocks, let's not forget all the underground nuclear explosions and the pumping of oil, our planet is looking more and more like “Swiss Cheese” and now it is letting us know through: earthquakes, volcanoes and the increase of Co2. The time to change is here and now! The Industrial Revolution was a process of change from an agrarian, handicraft economy to one dominated by industry and machine manufacturing. It began in England in the 18th century... Read more [...]

Humans Change The World! How Many Species We Are Losing?

What took 4 billion years to evolve is vanishing in the blink of an eye. "For millions of years all humans, early and modern alike, had to find their own food. They spent a large part of each day gathering plants and hunting or scavenging animals. Then, within just the past 12,000 years, our species, Homo sapiens, made the transition to producing food and changing our surroundings. We have been so successful that we have inadvertently created a turning point in the history of life on Earth", says the Smithsonian Institution's Human Origins Program. Here are some examples of Biodiversity state of being that GreenDustries chose to talk to you about. There are 4 different forms of life and we want to explain their places in the Ecosystem, in our lives: the Mammals, the Plants, the Birds and Reptiles. The United Nations General Assembly aims to engage people all around the world in protecting life on Earth. Biodiversity is not just about plants, animals and insects, it is about life - it underpins our survival on this planet, the importance of biodiversity for our health, wealth... Read more [...]

What is biodiversity? Let’s find out.

What is biodiversity? Let's find out. You’re going to ask: What do PleatPaks and Magic Bags have to do with Biodiversity? You are right! It seems far fetched but IT'S NOT! GreenDustries’ products save trees by using recycled paper and cardboards converted in our Paper mill. We save about 24,163,600 adult trees each year and 95% of the Eco-System/Biodiversity on a territory equivalent to 21% of the surface of Belgium. Now if every one in the Fast Food Industry were using our PleatPaks and Magic Bags, the world savings would be an important factor for the Environment! "The Convention on Biological Diversity" says the following: The rich tapestry of life on our planet is the outcome of over 3.5 billion years of evolutionary history. It has been shaped by forces such as changes in the planet's crust, ice ages, fire and ... Read more [...]

So what is Climate Change?

So what is Climate Change? Do you think the world's climate scientist are lying about the data? What is more powerful than the sun, volcanoes, and all other things in nature and we are officially to "blame" for the world's climate change. Question - which change is it?
You may recall that in the 1970s that science was suggesting we prepare for another ice age.
So should I pack a swim suit or a parka? Point is, climate change is not that simple. The fact is that the Earth is getting warmer. There's a lot of information floating around about climate change. Most people know it has something to do with the "Industrial Revolution". Pollution, changing weather and car exhaust, climate change occurs when long-term weather patterns are altered for example, through human activity. Global warming is one measure of climate change, and is a rise in the average global temperature. We can decide to do nothing about this issue now, but we'll just pay for it later. Food prices will continue to rise and water will continue to become increasingly scarce leading to even more... Read more [...]
