Compared with previous years, the climate change is really beyond imagination. High temperatures of 40 degrees and 50 degrees have all come out in many places around the world.
No, a piece of news about the “Climate Crisis Era” has once again sparked heated discussions, because the Earth’s climate change has a fatal impact on human beings.
However, on the contrary, there is an exception under the change of the earth, and that is Musk’s statement – I hope that within 20 years, there will be a self-sufficient city on Mars. Can humans achieve “Mars immigration”?
Although many people see that these two issues are not related, in fact, there is a certain relationship between the two. If the earth becomes uninhabitable in the future, then looking for a “second earth” to live in, Mars may be one of the best options.
What’s more, apart from Mars, humans have not found any celestial bodies that are “directly suitable for human habitation”, and even Mars needs to be transformed before it can be inhabited. So, let’s discuss the problem between Mars and the earth, let’s talk about why humans have the idea of moving to Mars.
Why do humans go to Mars?
For Mars, do you say Mars is good? In fact, it is not good, the celestial body is still a “wasted” planet.
According to the explanation of humans going to Mars at first, it is because the number of people on earth is increasing, but the area of the earth will not increase. The best solution is to let some people immigrate to other planets, and Mars is the first choice of human beings. .
The second reason is that once the earth collides with another small planet one day and destroys human beings, just like the extinction of the dinosaurs 70 million years ago, then after the catastrophe, the “incense” of human beings may only be inherited by the immigrants from Mars.
Of course, there is actually another reason, which is what we call the change of the earth’s climate. Under the circumstance that the earth is not suitable for human habitation, we have to choose other celestial bodies to live in.
At least from the perspective of scientific exploration, human beings are already looking for a “Second Earth”. But have you found it? Actually not found. There is no celestial body suitable for human habitation. And Mars has become the development potential of “Second Earth”.
In addition, over the years, although many countries around the world have signed the “Paris Agreement”, hoping to control the angle of global warming within 1.5 degrees or 2 degrees, it is clear that the “Paris Agreement” seems to be “waste paper” Now, there are simply not many countries to actually implement the agreement. Because the warming of the earth is still intensifying.
Therefore, in 2022, the IPCC issued a warning again that human activities have undoubtedly triggered the global climate crisis, and the world is about to miss the window of opportunity to achieve the 1.5-degree or 2-degree warming control goal, and the climate factors that have an impact are in all regions of the world. It is increasing both in time and space.
Therefore, the earth under climate change may also make many people want to have the idea of ”immigrating to Mars”.
40 degrees, 50 degrees high temperature! Will the earth be uninhabitable for humans?
From the perspective of climate change in 2022, high temperatures of 40 degrees and 50 degrees are coming! It is true that the earth is becoming less and less suitable for human habitation. The extreme climate change is too strong, and according to the trend, it will continue to increase.
Although from the perspective of climate, most of these reasons are attributed to “global warming”, but the human beings are no longer faced with the problem of “warming or not warming”, but facing the problems caused by global warming Various “knock-on” problems.
According to publicly available data, in June this year, global land areas experienced the warmest temperatures since systematic meteorological records began in the late 1850s, with record-breaking heat, drought, wildfires, torrential rains and floods sweeping the northern hemisphere.
For example: Spain has experienced extreme heat. Since July, nearly 3,000 people have died from the heat, which is several times the number in the same period last year.
So, the “lethal” effects of climate change on humans have already appeared and are multiplying. If this state continues, is the earth still suitable for human habitation? It’s definitely not suitable, don’t even think about it.
Once the climate reaches an “irreversible” situation, then the earth may stage a “sixth mass extinction”. And this time, it is difficult for humans to avoid it. Therefore, the extreme climate phenomenon under climate change is the “primary solution” for human beings.
However, to eradicate these threats of climate change, it can only be changed by human beings. Of the 500 extreme weather events and trends in the database, 71% are considered more likely or more severe because of climate change, including 93% of heatwaves, 68% of droughts and 56% of floods and heavy rain events .
So, as long as humanity doesn’t change, the lethal effects of that face will continue to emerge. If it changes – reducing greenhouse gas emissions, planting more trees, etc., the climate change may be alleviated. Otherwise, the earth will no longer be suitable for human habitation.
No, Tesla and SpaceX CEO Elon Musk reiterated his unwavering commitment to colonizing Mars and making humans a multiplanetary species. “I hope to have a self-sufficient city on Mars in 20 years,” he wrote in a tweet.
Can Mars really become a “super earth”?
In fact, for Mars, the possibility of becoming a second Earth is indeed there. But changing Mars is also quite difficult.
And it has also publicly stated that many scientists are very worried about the future destiny of mankind, because our earth is subject to too many natural threats, coupled with some human behaviors, the future is likely to destroy the earth to the point where it becomes unlivable.
In fact, this is to explain some of the factors under the climate change, the threat to human beings is increasing. Therefore, human beings hope to find a “second earth”. And if human beings can migrate in large numbers, then from the perspective of exploration, the only possible celestial body is Mars.
Although Mars appears to be an abandoned celestial body, there is no possibility of supporting life. According to the existing scientific understanding of mankind, to change Mars and turn it into a habitable celestial body, this process will only take two or three hundred years. After the transformation, humans can live on Mars without wearing space suits, so , According to Ouyang Ziyuan, humans can immigrate to Mars in the future.
Therefore, the scientific community’s view that Mars has become a “second Earth” still exists. But for Musk’s statement that he hopes that there will be a self-sufficient city on Mars within 20 years, this possibility is still low, and everyone can just take a look.
And, from a personal point of view, human beings can indeed look for a second Earth, and they can also transform Mars. But for the earth, we must protect it first. Don’t wait until Mars has not been transformed, and all life on earth has reached a “desperate”. What about immigration? Therefore, the top priority is to maintain the earth well, so that there may be a future “second earth” — Mars becomes the earth.
