Environmental Protection Technologies
Environmental Protection Technologies came as an answer to fast developing Process Technologies. In it’s roots these technologies observe and control changes in air, water and land. From a relatively predictable environment influenced only by outside forces from space we got unpredictable environment fuelled by our own doings even against very well established natural laws. What’s more from such an unpredictable environment we have to have access to safe and clean air, water, land and food. An old Greek saying says:’You cannot step twice in the same river’. But we can step in more cleaner. We do not have to choose to step in less safe and clean environment. It seems we wake-up our own forces and evils in our own backyard to work against our own well being. What a ……. liberty!
Just one example: Everyone who studied chemistry or physics heard for 2nd law of thermodynamics described by R Clausius (1854) that ‘heat cannot of itself, without the intervention of any external source, pass from a colder to a hotter body’.
According to this law our planet as entire space moving irreversibly towards highest order or simply speaking cooling down. Recent cooling down (posibly 6-10 thousend years ago) left planet devastated beyond arctic circle. If we did opposite we might be on the verge of a great invention: ‘How to inhibit process of appraching zero or nothing(0) in every sense with our own …. pollution’. Without getting into deep discussion we are aware of climate change and our own pollution. Average temperature on planet earth is 22oC since on nearest Mercury & Venus is >400oC, Mars -23oC and Jupiter -150oC. So, we should act fast to find a new host to satisfy our needs and habits or change nappies of our small baby planet earth in such a way that baby should remain warm (not cold, not hot and certainly not dangerous). Whoever is a mother, father or ever did change real nappies knows what it means to a baby. Baby complain with short eh…eh…eh…eh in dirty nappies just like we do now about our planet but when you open nappies if it is uncomfortable you facing real challenge with all five long wowels shaking entire household. But in our case we might experience even 6th and 7th nazal deep wovels mmmmmm or nnnnnnn.
