What does society/governments say about Pollution?
Our society continues to state the obvious about the opinions of pollution which is dont pollute because it kills millions of people and living organisms in the world. The response to societys words has not been seen nearly as much as it should. People seem to think to themselves that someone else will deal with the pollution and put the blame on others. But what people really need to start doing is taking a step back and really putting into perspective how much pollution they are producing. If we all did that many of us will be surprised because of how much we are individually ruining the earth. Societies’ main way of informing the harm of pollution is through social media and word of mouth. Although social media is the main source to get to people these days I think the government should start making more changes to stop pollution. Just like how it is illegal to kill someone it should be illegal to pollute our earth because essentially pollution is a killer. Since the harm done by pollution is proven by science that it is killing millions of people per year then there should become some laws to prevent pollution from happening. Many political leaders are afraid to propose big ideas to stop pollution because it can be costly to the country and if it doesnt work it ruins their reputation. I think that it is a lousy excuse for lazy politicians who dont want to make changes for the good; I believe that a good leader should take risks if it can lead to any positive change. Once one big leader makes a change for good many other leaders will follow in their footsteps and slowly make the world a better and safer place. But now politicians are more worried about themselves and their reputation that they are not willing to help the country in a positive way.
What does the church say about pollution?
The church sees pollution as a sin. But since pollution is so widespread across the world it is impossible for every catholic person to completely cut out pollution from their everyday lives. But a few years ago, Pope Francis proposed to add caring for the environment to the traditional works of mercy. Caring for the environment and not polluting is even seen many times in the Bible. For example, You shall not pollute the land which you live, for blood pollute the land, and no atonement can be made for the land for the blood that is shed in it, except by the blood of the one who shed it. You shall not defile the land in which you live, in the midst of which I dwell, for I the Lord dwell in the midst of the people of Israel (Numbers 35:33-34). This passage is not only talking about how killing is a sin because it pollutes Gods earth with blood, but it also relates to the pollution of harmful substances to Gods earth being a sin as well. The world is built around pollution so you cannot just stop polluting for the rest of your life because it is a sin; that is not what God expects from you, but He wants you to reduce the amount and also teach others that it is a sin and that they should reduce it as well. God built this world and died for our sins with the hope that we would teach His words and share His stories through scripture.
My thoughts on Pollution
I believe that many people in our world are very hypocritical and petty. They are hypocritical because I see so many people that post anti-pollution pictures and articles online but then those same people are polluting themselves. These people think that because they are informing others about the problem they dont need to fix the problem themselves. Also, people are petty because many people say that they are too busy to worry about how much they are polluting and use that as their excuse. Paul Ricoeur Conceptual framework of Human Action can perfectly describe why people won’t help against pollution. We have the agents which are the people who intend to help. The action , is to take a step back and see how much pollution they are contributing to and reduce it. The motive , which is the reasoning of why they dont do the action; which revolves around the agents priorities and thinking that someone else will stop polluting so I dont need to. The agent does these actions because everyone else does this and that helps us see that our actions give us our identity. This framework with respect to pollution proves that many people are followers when it comes to preventing and reducing pollution and not very many people will step up and take leadership for their part of pollution.
