Only very recently has man learned that the earth. Our common ship is the earth

Help find the problem comment and the position of the author.

Only recently has man learned that the earth is a sphere. they thought the earth stands on three elephants, and at night the starry world covers the Earth. Now a person flies around the ball in less than two hours. The earth can be seen from the side. .details of earthly life are not visible from afar, but there are many of them. two decades ago, Americans conducted a survey of scientists, what did space flights give mankind? The answers were interesting. I remember this: "we are alone in the universe and it doesn’t look like they are waiting for us anywhere. we must protect our home, our native land." good answer. today, from the height of his knowledge, a person can say: “We got a wonderful planet.” In fact, there is water on the planet without which life would be impossible. .green plants fill the atmosphere with oxygen, accumulate carbon and release animal oxygen and ozone into the upper layers of the atmosphere, covering all living things from the destructive rays of the sun. of course, emerging life had to adapt for millions of years to their significant conditions on the planet. Living organisms gave way to more perfect ones on earth. only bones survived from many animals, but some have survived to this day. live in ocean water on the verge of extermination by man, huge whales are the largest creatures that have ever lived on earth. The smallest of mammals is a tiny baby mouse and a shrew weighing only 2 grams. between whales and mice, a huge number of animals to which the earth has become a home. and man is at the head of all things. he often decides who lives and who is denied life. For millions of years, the nature of animals has been selected by determining the places where they can live and what they can eat. a person has studied these places and is the first to reach for prey, destroys the environment where animals, birds, fish habitually and safely live. This is how the foundations of our common home are destroyed. Many animals have disappeared and become extremely rare. for a long time we have not seen flying cranes, few people hear the current capercaillie cry of quails. and so everywhere on earth. Two hundred years ago, Americans barbarously exterminated millions of bison, and in the middle of the last century, chemistry knocked down the iconic bald eagle bird in America. in Africa, thousands of rhinos were killed over large areas; land was needed for sowing grain. areas of hot deserts and wastelands are growing; fertile lands are being depleted; lakes are drying up; small rivers are disappearing on the plains. that's what the scientist meant when he answered the question about space. We need to protect planet earth. no one is waiting for our landing on other planets. and the earth still feeds us, gives us breath, supplies water with warmth and the joy of life coming from our neighbors: animals, birds, fish, insects that form a complex pattern of life on our planet. this is what the earth looks like when you look at it from the side. outlines of the continents. traces of volcano activity. lights of big cities and small villages. lakes on land. islands in the ocean. land pitted with mines and fox minks. land covered with traces of animals with grain fields and curls of forests.

Guys, we put our soul into the site. Thanks for that
for discovering this beauty. Thanks for the inspiration and goosebumps.

We do not notice how familiar things disappear over time: VCRs, disks, push-button telephones... And this is only a small part of what seemed familiar just recently. Not many things from the past were able to linger - for example, the TV remote control and metal keys to the door, but we will soon forget about them. What other items will suffer a similar fate, and whether your employer can clone you if necessary - you will learn from the article.

website I decided to look into the near future and find out what things we will have to give up and what to accept.

car mirrors

A couple of decades - and we will completely forget what metal keys to an apartment or car look like. Push-button start technology in cars is far from new, but imagine that soon it will be possible to open an apartment using a button on a smartphone, a voice command, or a retinal scan.

wires

Chargers will soon cease to annoy smartphone owners with exposed wires, and no one else will get a bundle of headphones out of their pocket. Everything will be charged using devices that use radio waves and Wi-Fi. Wires are gradually leaving our everyday life, making our world more and more futuristic.

syringes

This is both good news and bad news. The good news is that there will be no syringes in the future, the bad news is that technologies will come in their place, and they are quite strange. Scientists came up with 2 options: the first is a jet injection, which injects fluid through the pores into the skin at a speed exceeding the speed of sound; the second is a capsule with tiny needles inside that dissolves in the patient's digestive system and injects the substance into the body. Does it hurt? Until we try, we won't know.

Delivery Services

In recent years, experiments with drones and attempts to replace couriers with them have been increasingly carried out. In many countries, this type of delivery is becoming more and more popular, and it can be assumed that very soon the type of a flying parcel will become familiar to us.

Signature

Paper carriers are fading into the background, and biometric systems are becoming more common. Smartphones and ATMs already know how to recognize a person by sight, and signatures in their usual form will soon cease to exist - thanks to face recognition technology, it will be enough to look into the camera of your smartphone.

Plastic bags

(1) Only recently did a person learn that the Earth is a ball. (2) They thought that the Earth stands on three elephants, and at night the starry world covers the Earth. (H) Now a person flies around the ball in less than two hours. (4)3 the ground can be seen from the side. (5) Here is a picture taken from space. (6) Yes, the Earth is a ball, continents, seas, clouds, sunrises and sunsets are visible on it. (7) The details of earthly life are not visible from afar, but they are, there are many of them ...

(15) The rotation of the Earth ensures the alternation of days and nights on the planet, the change of seasons. (17) Green plants fill the atmosphere with oxygen, accumulate carbon and release life-giving oxygen and ozone into the upper layers of the atmosphere, covering all living things from the destructive rays of the Sun.

(32) And so everywhere on Earth.

(34) In Africa, thousands of rhinos were killed over large areas - land was needed for sowing grain. (35) The areas of hot deserts and wastelands are growing, fertile lands are being depleted, lakes are drying up, small rivers are disappearing on the plains.

In this text, the writer V.M. Peskov touches upon the problem of preserving the nature around us.

The problem raised by the author cannot leave anyone indifferent, because nature is an integral part of the life of any of us. Bringing his thoughts, the author tries to understand what nature is dear to us and why it should be valued.

The writer believes that our planet, the Earth, must be treated with care, because it is our home: "We must take care of our home - our native Earth."

It is difficult to disagree with the position of V.M. Peskov, because the world around us also needs care. A man shouldn't just rush in into the realm of the living, where reigns peace and harmony: everywhere you need to be careful not to destroy anything.
