Empty Planet is a science fiction novel by David Hansberry, the first in a new trilogy. It follows Michael, a young man who finds himself drawn into a mysterious planet.
The novel is set in the distant future, when humans have left Earth to explore the stars. The world is divided into wealthy planets and poor ones, with privilege awarded on a sliding scale of need.
On this planet, Michael finds himself ensconced in an incredibly privileged position: as one of the lowest class. However, he feels connected to something much greater than himself and his small life style—something more powerful and vast like an ocean or a blue sky day.
This book takes place on several levels: it is about what happens when people give up fighting for what they want for what they need for happiness for success in life.

The decline of natural resources
the rate of deforestation worldwide is at an all-time high. According a the World Bank, global forest area declined by about 12% between 1999 and 2009, making it the fastest growing region of the world in the past six years.
That decline is due in part to increased consumption. More land means more trees which means more energy to process it into fuel or food.
It is also due in part to climate change and weather-related disasters such as storms, which make it difficult to process more land into fuel or food.
More efficient engine performance is another way resource consumption can increase with climate change policy.
The decline of the environment
The environment is facing some serious challenges. Many of them have a direct link to our reliance on fossil fuels. Other long-term trends including suburbanization and large-scale agriculture are affecting areas surrounding our homes, both locally and globally.
At the same time, we are spending more money than ever buying food and shelter than we ever have before. This increased spending is a result of two things: 1) the growing size of society and 2) the increased status assigned to healthy diets by society.
Healthier eating habits are in style now, and people are expected to have a certain number of nutrients they cannot get from their diet. More people are realizing the value of eating enough calories, which is another result of health status boom.
Nutrient deficiency is a concern as it grows harder to compensate for deficit with only diet alone.
The decline of culture
Our planet has been going through a period of decline for the past few decades. This decline is called the Anthropocene, which translates to “man-time”.
Many believe that this accelerated evolution is the result of our use of technology, and most importantly, the Internet. The prevalence of the Internet has increased greatly over the past few decades, making it more accessible and popular.
The introduction of the World Wide Web in 1990 made it easily accessible to everyone, making them more inclined to use technology as a form of expression and social interaction. This increased popularity has had an increase in digital usage among people, with more people than not having access to a device or software at some point.
However, this increase in digital usage has had negative effects on people who are less tech-savvy.
The decline of intelligence
While today’s young adults have access to high-tech devices and smart-grid technology, this has had a drastic effect on the quality of their everyday life.
These technologies have increased efficiency in using and caring for them, increasing their consumption. This is due to increased consumerism and fashions that advertise health and beauty products.
As we know, more things mean more consumption, which is great! However, with all the new stuff coming out everyday, it can be hard to stay informed.

Reasons for having fewer children
There are several reasons why having fewer children is not the best choice. In this article, we will discuss both physical and legal reasons for having fewer children.
During child-bearing years is when you’re most vulnerable to injury, health issues, and socializing. During this time you are also most likely to make decisions that benefit you and your community. You are also likely to be more involved in the community as a member of the community, having more benefits than when you are child-free.
When there are benefits to being child-free, it is usually for individuals who don’t want children but can’t get pregnant. This includes individuals who aren’t sexually transmitted or tolerant of a male presence, but includes also anyone who wants a family but can’t due to age or health status.
Ways to address population growth
Two main ways to address population growth are by developing rural areas and by reducing infrastructure use.
In general, more infrastructure means more people in order to offset the cost of it. This includes roads, airports, and other transportation systems.
As these grow with the population, there is a cost associated with it. More land must be preserved for future generations to enjoy.
The other way to address population growth is to improve rural areas. Many folks leave mid-decade because of the peace and isolation that comes with being away from crime and life’s stresses.
These areas often do not have access to electricity or water so both sources must be provided for.
Reduce your carbon footprint
Currently, we’re putting off serious efforts to reduce our carbon footprint. We can start today by taking the time to read and understand what you consume and how you can reduce your impact.
Reading is the best way to start this journey as most people don’t have much experience reading but they can learn about how much you spend and how that spending affects others.
So, let’s take a minute to think about what we spend money on and why. How much do we really know about the things we buy? Why do we buy some things and not others?
These are questions that you should consider while choosing new products or changing your current ones. You can make a difference in how you spend money and impact the world in which you live in.
Use renewable energy
Use renewable energy
Bullet point: Relying only on wind and solar power is not a viable option. These sources require constant maintenance and refreshment, which requires proper care.
As a member of the military, I have seen how important maintenance and refreshment is. While standing outside at night watching the stars come down from the heavens, I vow to be conscious of my power source.
By being aware of how much electricity you need and having enough for a little over a week, you are more likely to stay motivated. You will also be saving money that can be invested into your personal finances.
Using renewable energy sources such as water wheels, re-filling solar panels, or using power tools in case the sun is off has proven successful in conserving energy.
