THE ROYAL HERMITAGE ENVIRONMENT POLICY & SENSE OF COMMON-NATURE NATURAL ENVIRONMENT CONTRACT
The big discrepancy about the environment from what I have
gathered so far has been generally that of ignorance, embarrassment or even
humour; the real humour and or embarrassment on the other hand can be measured
by the following select facts.
The Gestation Period of an Elephant is 24 Months, the
gestation period of a Whale is 3 Years. All animals domesticated or otherwise
which exist to provide meat and food for us are on average allowed to enjoy a
gestation period of at least 3 years, before we consider alternative sources of
uses for them in terms of meat:-this is the acceptable agricultural practice,
for securing the highest level of productivity: If these facts are to be
quantified by the manner in which we treat our surroundings and the wild life
in it, then it is fair to say that the only viable and sustainable way to hunt
an Elephant or a Whale since we must, is if we hunt a one every Whale that has
lived after reaching adulthood for a period of at least 9 years or three
gestation periods and for Elephants a period of at least 6 years or two
gestation periods.
From what I gather of the lifespan of these animals, most of
them do not live this long before their wild environment had claimed their
lives and most of them do not live this long before they had died of Natural
causes either.
It is not criminal that there are cultures which hunt
animals like Baby Seals, Tigers, Lions or Elephants and Whales but it is
barbaric not to take into account what must be done to make sure there are
Whales to hunt and that those that are being hunted have lived a full life;
this would be a start to the protection and conservation of our wild
environment, from which we take so much including aesthetics and we would not
have begun to scratch the surface on the issue with the Earth's Ozone Layer
yet.
My personal view is that the International Community has
done very little on this matter and rather allowed the Politics of the scramble
for wild life to take over the right of our Environment to exist.
Of course some do say the value of the environment and its
issues have been overestimated and the mark overshot but of course the
realities when it plays out in my head is rather different; recycling should
definitely have been one of the major behaviour issues in the 21st century, a
matter of health and safety for those that have to clean up our mess never mind
manners, surely living in an environmentally sustainable world is a benefit of
placing emphasis on the importance of the environment and the issues facing it
today, surely a message to the Politicians about the benefits of energy
sustainability is a huge benefit of environmental issues publicity, never mind
keeping Industries up to date on creating energy efficient products or boasting
to your friends that you live in such an energy efficient Housing that even
your poo is recycled to make electricity or indeed having more time on your
hands to make friends and socialise as a result of clean sustainable living
areas where waste is properly managed, Oh silly me, I did forget the jobs it
creates noughts. It brings us squarely to the matter of such things as stupid
Laws that the Courts have to enforce which is concerned with grave punishments
beings met out to those who hack into government Computers - which of course we
all know is a serious offence but must be applied by the Courts says the
executive to the extent where lengthy jail terms are met out to those who have
medical conditions that cause Government activities at secret security to
affect them in a certain way, never mind the factual issues of what they were
actually thinking at the time in which they committed the offence.
