Planet Earth has limited ability of self-renewal. Disruption of natural cycles manifests itself in exceeding the planetary limits of nature’s regeneration which is reflected in contaminated water, the disappearance of glaciers, resulting in rising sea levels and floods, climate change, biodiversity loss, ocean acidification and ozone depletion. These consequences increasingly affect the difficult existence on our planet. This calls for…
