When ecological food destroys the environment

When ecological food destroys the environment


Sometimes rainforests like Amazonas are destroyed because the new plantations are needed for creating food for vegetarians. The food vegetables need space and this is another side of medal in the vegetarian food. Of course, vegetables are more ecological than meat, but the problem is that those vegetables are destroying the jungle. Vegetables like soy are important for replacing the animal- or meat proteins, but the problem is that those vegetables are taking space from the normal or natural vegetables of the jungle. 


And this is one of the biggest problems with food production in the world. Same time when we are protecting the species from hunting, we are destroying their natural environment. So we don't hunt those species, we are causing their extinction by destroying their food. And this is the problem with the world. When the population of the human race is growing, we need more and more food. 


Even if we would not eat meat anymore, things like corn are replacing natural vegetables, because that kind of food must be produced more than ever before. And the thing is that food must produce somewhere. One of the biggest problems with food production is that most of the rainforests are in the areas, where is the best place to grow vegetables. And that kind of thing is the worst and biggest threat to rainforests. 


When we are thinking about things like climate change and problems with the entire planet, we must realize that overpopulation is one of the things, that we must start to handle. When we want to protect the environment, the thing that we must understand is the thing that people are living in the areas, what we want to protect. 


At the same time, when some people are saying, that we must not kill too many mosquitos in some areas, we are forgetting that there live people whose family members are dying malaria. The reason why those mosquitos are needed is that the perch of Nile would survive. And the restaurants are producing food by that fish. But those people who are living in the upriver of the Nile would not ever eat that perch. 


The poison named DDT offers the solution for the mosquito problem, but it causes probably some kind of changes in chromosomes or behavior of the animals. The thing is that DDT(1) is very cheap and easy to use. And the data of the chromosomal changes collected a short period. We know that Agent Orange(2) causes genetic mutations, but does the DDT cause similar mutations is the question mark.

Antimatter motor

Antimatter motor Antimatter would be an effective fuel for interstellar spacecraft Antimatter would be the most effective power source in the world. It will be the most suitable motor for interstellar spacecraft, but the problem is that thing is very reactive. And actually one of the biggest problems with this kind of motor is that the gram of antimatter would turn the entire planet to the molecular nebula. So this kind of motor can produce only outside of our solar system. Producing antimatter would need large particle accelerators, and that kind of systems might look like giant donuts, what is floating on the space. There are two ways to create the antimatter motor, one is to store the anti-ions in the magnetic bottle, where the pushing magnetic field will keep those ions away from the wall of the bottle, and then the antimatter would conduct to the water or some other particle. The huge explosion or annihilation reaction would send the rocket to a very high speed. The antimatt...

Thoughts about strong leadership

Thoughts about strong leadership Everybody knows, how the dictators would rise in the power of the nation, and the thing what makes people supporting those persons is that they offer strong leadership as the way to make nation proud. And also they have always the same parroting, the foreigners and other nations have a too strong influence in the country. But what makes those persons like some Robert Mugabe or Kim Jong Un to think that they are only possible leaders, and why people would need them? Why there is nobody else allowed to try to come to the head of the state, or even try to challenge those leaders? If they are so popular as they want people to think or believe, why they don't tolerate any kind of opposition if they are done so good and big actions for their people, that they are celebrated in every home in their country. The thing that would return the morale and spine for the nation is the strong leader, who would put the state back in order and row. The thing is ...

Next-generation nanotechnology can be independent-operating molecule-sized robots.

 Next-generation nanotechnology can be independent-operating molecule-sized robots. "A DNAzyme (red) uses its binding arms to dock at a specific location on an RNA strand (yellow) and then cleaves it at its core. High-resolution, real-time NMR, Electron Paramagnetic Resonance, and Fluorescence Spectroscopy." "As well as Molecular Dynamics Simulations are used to identify the structure. And catalytic mechanisms of the DNAzyme. Credit: HHU/Manuel Etzkorn" (https://scitechdaily.com/dnazymes-how-active-dna-biocatalysts-that-destroy-unwanted-rna-molecules-work/) The active DNA catalysts are the gate to DNA-controlled, independently-operating, molecular-size nanomachines.  The DNAzymes or active DNA biocatalysts are next-generation tools for destroying unwanted RNA. The DNA molecule is one of the tools. That can use for controlling molecular-size machines. DNA is like a chemical computer program. And if the researchers can make synthetic DNA that can make exactly what the...
