Natural laws dominate the human society

Content Provider Springer Nature Link
Author Glavič, Peter
Copyright Year 2010
Abstract 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.

About National Digital Library of India (NDLI)
NDLI logo

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
