Today, without realizing it, we are launching our own asteroid: it doesn\u2019t come from space \u2014 we manufacture it day by day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"ember3085\">Every year we release 40 billion tons of CO\u2082. Compressed into solid form, that\u2019s a sphere 3.6 km in diameter. In 20 years, it will be an asteroid nearly 10 km across \u2014 the same size as Chicxulub, the one that erased the dinosaurs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"ember3086\">The difference is that this asteroid isn\u2019t falling from the sky. We are hurling it into our atmosphere ourselves, in fast motion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"ember3087\">If we don\u2019t stop emissions and, beyond that, recapture what we\u2019ve already released, we will be the next dinosaurs: a brilliant species, extinguished by its own blindness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"ember3088\">There is only one way out: to take the helm. This asteroid is not inevitable \u2014 we can dismantle it piece by piece. But the time is now, because we have already set it in motion.\u00bb*<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThis is not a dream, it\u2019s a nightmare\u2026 but I have the alarm clock: the Master Plan.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"ember3090\"><strong>\u201cEl asteroide de Chicxulub extermin\u00f3 a los dinosaurios; los humanos fabricaron el suyo propio.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"ember3091\">\u201cEl Asteroide que Nos Lanzamos\u201d<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"ember3092\">*\u00bb65 millones de a\u00f1os atr\u00e1s, un asteroide de apenas 10 km de di\u00e1metro golpe\u00f3 la Tierra y acab\u00f3 con los dinosaurios. Hoy, sin darnos cuenta, nosotros estamos lanzando nuestro propio asteroide: no viene del espacio, lo fabricamos d\u00eda a d\u00eda.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"ember3093\">Cada a\u00f1o liberamos 40.000 millones de toneladas de CO\u2082. Comprimidas en s\u00f3lido, forman una esfera de 3,6 km de di\u00e1metro. En 20 a\u00f1os, ser\u00e1 un asteroide de casi 10 km: el mismo tama\u00f1o que el de Chicxulub, el que borr\u00f3 a los dinosaurios.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"ember3094\">La diferencia es que este asteroide no cae del cielo. Lo estamos arrojando nosotros mismos a nuestra atm\u00f3sfera, en c\u00e1mara r\u00e1pida.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"ember3095\">Si no detenemos las emisiones y, adem\u00e1s, no recapturamos lo que ya liberamos, seremos los pr\u00f3ximos dinosaurios: una especie brillante, pero extinguida por su propia ceguera.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"ember3096\">La \u00fanica salida es tomar el tim\u00f3n. El asteroide no es inevitable: podemos desarmarlo pieza a pieza. Pero el tiempo es ahora, porque ya lo hemos puesto en marcha.\u00bb*<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cNo es un sue\u00f1o, es una pesadilla\u2026 pero tengo el despertador: el Master Plan.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A Better World, Now Possible!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>EcoBuddha Maitreya<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u201cThe Asteroid We\u2019re Throwing at Ourselves\u201d *\u00bb65 million years ago, an asteroid just 10 km wide struck Earth<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":57,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1128","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-in-note"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/globalsolidarity.live\/maitreyamusic\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/17.png","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/globalsolidarity.live\/maitreyamusic\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1128","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/globalsolidarity.live\/maitreyamusic\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/globalsolidarity.live\/maitreyamusic\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/globalsolidarity.live\/maitreyamusic\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/globalsolidarity.live\/maitreyamusic\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1128"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/globalsolidarity.live\/maitreyamusic\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1128\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1129,"href":"https:\/\/globalsolidarity.live\/maitreyamusic\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1128\/revisions\/1129"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/globalsolidarity.live\/maitreyamusic\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/57"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/globalsolidarity.live\/maitreyamusic\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1128"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/globalsolidarity.live\/maitreyamusic\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1128"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/globalsolidarity.live\/maitreyamusic\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1128"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
