    Human beings are born to grow, and of course they want it to go on forever, even as this planet gets a little bit smaller with each volcano and earthquake, and more toxic with each new ton of garbage, sludge, junk, chemical waste, smoke and fumes. So the astronomers are searching the Cosmos for some other living planet or moon, hoping to settle human beings there before life on Earth slides into ecocide and extinction. The problem is finding a planet or moon where there is as great a SURPLUS of life as there is, or was, here on Earth. There may be many places in the Universe where some form of life has gotten started, but not to the tremendous extent as here on Earth. Scientists still haven't figured out how life exploded all over this planet even after huge earthquakes, volcanos and tornados caused massive die-offs. If they would dare to listen, many of us environmentalists are warning we only have this one planet and we had better take much better care of it if we want to survive into the next century and beyond -- but industrial humanity just keeps on dumping its waste products day after day blindly assuming the Earth can go right on absorbing ever more tons of it forever.
