Natural laws dominate the human society
Glavič, Peter
Human evolution is governed by non-equilibrium thermodynamics of bio-systems. Its laws are determining the ever increasing anthropogenic extraction of non-renewable materials and energy carriers, and ...pollution endangering the mankind to self-destroy the human race just the same way as the produced poisonous ethanol kills yeast on fermentation of juice of grapes. The dominating power of natural laws regarding materials, energy, information, and innovations is shown in the paper; it is stronger than the cultural awareness of mankind demonstrated by law, education, ethics, religion, and morality. Evidently, only natural catastrophes can make people act in a different way, towards lowering the pollution. Although catastrophes are increasing at an exponential rate, it may be too late for human action when heat waves, sea level rise, desertification, wood fires, and floods act strong enough to make the mankind respond culturally (non-naturally). Therefore, it is crucial to understand the natural laws of evolution and their influence on the human society. It is also vital for students, having the farthest reaching time horizon of their life cycle, to be acquainted with the consequences foreseen, and the adaptation strategy is available for the future decades.
