Earth Day 2012





 

Yesterday, marked a eventful  and  pivotal time in our world, where everyone in the world,  has to be concern and aware of the growing problems facing our planet. Global warming is an ongoing issue, which means rising waters continuing to rise causing animals to be endangered or extinct. The ozone layer which protects us from the sun, is depleting at a  fast rate. Large consumptions of plastic and foam is washing onto our shores, casing pollution and harm to the creatures of the sea . The nuclear plants that are bringing us energy to our homes, are dumping toxic waste into our ocean, which means our drinking waters are now contaminated with toxic waste. As an effort to step up global awareness, we must educate our youth about the importance of energy conservations, planting crops, finding creative ways to bring about new sources of energy. By doing these things, we  showing others that we care abut our planet. Change starts with each person. Do the little things that are important. turn off the light when you leave the room, take shorter showers, bring a Thermos with you, and refill it, that way, we can cut back on beverages that are sold in plastic and and foam containers. Battery chargers saves  a great purpose to conserve energy, low watt bulbs. When it comes to transportation, hybrid cars are the way to go, but if you don't have a car. don't be ashamed, using public transportation is a great way to reduce toxins fumes in the atmosphere. Don't forget,a pumping heart is a healthy heart, long walks, and bike riding, is a great way to reduce obesity and live a long a healthy life. We must not forget the purpose of why the earth is here in the first place, we must share the knowledge of what God bestoled upon us, and put back what we found. Growing trees, Finding new ways of  renewable energy, can  make the earth a place we can all enjoy, insead of just taking, and not recyling what we found. If not, then we let down the future generations that look forward  to a life of joy and happiness. One  Love yall.
