Between heaven and earth, the growth of all things depends on the source of carbon and energy. Carbon, the foundation of life, the form and quality of all things, is made of carbon. Energy, the driving force of movement, the root of change.
Ancient sage, observing the life and breath of all things, knowing the importance of carbon and energy. Watch the rise and fall of plants, carbon flows in them, spring grows and summer grows, absorbing carbon and flourishing; autumn withers and winter falls, releasing carbon into the soil. Energy is also like, the sun shines brightly, providing energy for all things, and plants and trees obtain it, performing photosynthesis, transforming light energy into chemical energy, hidden in the body.
Between mountains and rivers, stone contains carbonaceous matter, which has changed over time, or into coal, or into oil. These are all ancient biological remains, accumulated over the years. Coal and oil are the treasures of energy. When they are burned, they generate heat. They can drive boats and generate electricity. They are used by the world, which is extremely convenient.
When they are taken, they should think about the way of conservation. Carbon emissions are related to climate change; energy consumption affects the survival of future generations. Therefore, today's people should study new methods, seek the recycling of carbon, and explore the sustainability of energy. Only then can they obtain the benefits of heaven and earth for a long time, and all things coexist harmoniously.
The source of carbon and energy is the wonder of creation in heaven and earth. It is the responsibility of people to observe, use, and protect them.
