An environmental call to reconsider human demands on a finite planet

Second in the Runaway Trilogy, this volume frames ecological responsibility as inseparable from social values and long-term human well-being. Carreras argues that modern life too often treats natural resources as inexhaustible, directing attention to air, earth, fire, and water alongside flora, fauna, ecosystems, and communities. The book presents environmental damage as the consequence of expanding human pressure and urges a renewed sense of responsibility, integrity, care, and obligation toward the planet. Its broad scope links pollution, exploitation, resource limits, and the need for humans to adapt their behavior to Earth’s constraints. The emphasis falls on awareness and a values-based case for safeguarding environmental systems before losses become irreversible.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Readers interested in environmental responsibility and finite resources
  • Those seeking a values-centered perspective on ecosystems and human impact
  • Readers exploring broad discussions of conservation, pollution, and sustainability

Book overview

T H E R U N A W A Y T R I L O G Y 1. OUR RUNAWAY SOCIETY -How to restore balance in life- 2. OUR RUNAWAY GLOBE -How to restore balance on Earth- 3. OUR RUNAWAY RIGHTS -How to restore balance in freedom- ==================== Trilogy's Main Goal: The rescue of core values and the power of positive change! Key Considerations to Open and Balance the Gates to Success and Happiness - Humbleness, respect, ethics and morals require urgent social rescuing. - Reverence and recognition for our planet is key to our survival. - Proper education is the gift to knowledge, which is ours to keep. It is the golden key to independence and freedom. - Tolerance, while safeguarding and shielding our rights, should always tightly hold hands together. - Positive attitude and respect for one-self is .... Everything. - Talent is worthless without common sense and logic. - Liberty and freedom are the foundation to social security and personal safety. ===================== 2nd Book: O U R R U N A W A Y G L O B E - How to restore balance on Earth- Unfortunately, we hardly, if ever, consider our limited and finite resources in connection with our needs for the future. If and when we finally do, it may be too late to recover them. No effort is spared in this book to highlight the issues that require immediate attention, like the four basic elements of our planet: air, earth, fire and water. We must be conscious of our flora and fauna, our ecosystem, our community and society and the consequences of the stress that we impose on our planet. Nothing is infinite! Main Goals: - Thorough acknowledgment and safeguarding for our environment and ecosystem, by truly embracing our flora and fauna. - True commitment and honest caring for our society, country and our planet as a whole. - Avoidance of the deadliest human mistake, which is to take this planet for granted. - To create awareness on the fact that the stealthiest and swiftest way of losing the essence of human comfort and well-being is by denying due credence to our environment and ecosystem, which we may only realize and acknowledge when it is too far gone. - The full recognition and understanding that Planet Earth is not infinite and will ultimately get to a point at which it will not endure the stress imposed on it. The continued and relentless growth of our footprint is to blame. - We need to regain control of some of the most crucial, though forgotten, human traits that makes us unique as a species, with true potential for a dignified and healthy survival. Forgotten or Misinterpreted Concepts - Responsibility, loyalty, integrity, tenacity, ability and caring attitude towards Earth's four basic elements and overall environment and ecosystem. Planet Earth has rights above and beyond any living species. Humans have rights but also strong obligations and responsibilities. We should stop abusing, exploiting and polluting our planet, which will ultimately stop negotiating with our increasing human demands. Earth does not need to adapt to us, but humans must adapt! Conclusion - People throughout history have taken for granted their natural resources: flora, fauna, oceans, rivers, lakes, mountains, clear blue skies, country, society, family, relationships, their .... everything! Unfortunately, in general, we tend to go through life without wondering or questioning our limited and finite resources and our needs for the forthcoming future; but when we ultimately do, it might be too late to recover. This book will open people's eyes to the crude reality and takes no prisoners in a daring presentation of a chain of issues that need immediate attention; otherwise, instead of appreciating what we have, we will end up regretting what we lost.
