Abstract

This work is based on the talk given by Csernai at the Blue Sky International Conference in the Buda Castle on October 30, 2015, Budapest, Hungary. The human development on the Earth is analysed based on basic physical principles and the available resources. The areal and material resources are obviously finite, but the very fundamen¬tal energy resources are sufficient for solid and sustainable continuing development. These energy resources can compensate many of the constraints arising from the finite material resources. The development is going in the direction of increasing complexity on the surface of the Earth, due to the increasing green mass and the developing biological and material complex structures. This sustainable development is enabled by the astrophysical conditions and con¬straints and these conditions provide a good possibility for continuous further development in a sus¬tainable way. This development is characterized by the increasing neg-entropy on the surface of the Earth. -------------------------------------------------------- A cikk Csernai László előadásán alapul, amit a Budai Várban a Blue Sky nemzetközi tanácskozáson tartott, 2015. október 30-án. A Földön az emberi fejlődést az alapvető fizikai elvek és a rendelkezésre álló források alapján tanulmányozzuk. A rendelkezésünkre álló terület és az anyagi források nyilvánvalóan végesek, de az alapvető energiaforrások elegendőek egy szilárd és fenntartható folytonos fejlődéshez. Ezek az energiaforrások kiegyenlíteni tudják a véges anyagi forrásokból eredő megszorításokat. A fejlődés az összetettebb rendszerek irányába történik a Föld felszínén, a növekvő zöldtömeg és a fejlődő biológiai és összetett anyagi rendszerek kialakulásával. Ezt a fenntartható fejlődést az asztrofizikai feltételek és korlátok teszik lehetővé, amelyek jó feltételeket biztosítanak a további folytonos fejlődésnek egy fenntartható módon. Ez a fejlődés a Föld felületén a növekvő neg-entrópia kialakulásával jellemezhető.
