Environment

Why should I care about the environment?

I know some of you are thinking, " Wait a minute, that question is easy to answer , there are plenty of reasons to care ... " - and you're right , there are plenty of easy answers to this question . I mean , why not to save the environment ?

The problem is that this question does not come from people who already loves organic food , recycling and driving hybrid cars. This question comes from those who do not have the extra money to spend buying organic products , or do not see a great benefit in recycling, or unwilling to stop driving a sports car for a Prius.

Believe it or not , there are still good reasons to worry about the environment - even if you do not consider an environmentalist . Here are 12 simple steps to protect the environment reasons, no matter who you are :

1. Show the world your good side
The impact on the environment today is a big difference in the world for future generations . It is about making an impact right now in many places. It is our responsibility to care for our planet and secure our future wellbeing .


Two . Consider your portfolio
Many people think that going green means investing time and money - and in some cases they are right - but most times not .


I do not think that's so important ? Check out the Beijing Olympics - they had to close their factories and force 50 % of drivers had to stay home every day for weeks and not kill athletes with poor air quality . After all these steps , there are still thousands of complaints .

April . Landfills are disgusting
Have you ever been on a road or a city that is near a large dumpster? Have you smelled that smell? I do not know , but I would do a lot to avoid having to experience that again .

Most of the things that are thrown away went straight to a landfill. Considering the amount of garbage that most individuals believe it is a miracle that we are not swimming in it already. If you do not like this vision of landfill everywhere in the future, you should contribute to environmental care .

5 . Think of the beautiful beaches
Everyone loves a good beach . The warm white sand, clear blue waters and virgin palm trees swaying in the light breeze .

Unfortunately , the beautiful beaches are slowly ceasing to be a reality and more of a memory of the past. Trash is infiltrating even the most remote corners of the world, and if we do not stop many of our current beautiful holiday will disappear.

6. Polar bears are cute
It is not just our beaches and resorts that are deteriorating , but also the beaches and the habitat of many species of animals in the world . Do you really want your children , grandchildren and nephews grow up in a world so different from ours ?
"Mommy, what's a polar bear? "

7. Unnatural causes cancer Things
Not only are natural products are better for the environment, but are also better for your health. If you've heard the news lately , I'm sure you have heard of this new study showing how found the causes of cancer . Yes, that is a blank, and these days seem to be filled with any synthetic product or food .


8. Necessity is the mother of invention
If you are the type of person who appreciates (or obsessed with ) the new technology , then the support for green industry is an easy option . The amount of money, resources , and intelligence becomes challenging environmental problems is prompting a wave of technological advances that we have not seen in a while .

9. Cycling is fun
Some of the easiest activities to do for the environment also happens to be a lot of fun . Things like riding a bike , going for walks , and any other use of your body instead of a device that produces carbon monoxide, can do much to reduce emissions of greenhouse gases .
Many of these activities will also improve your health and give you something to talk about ( you're actually riding a bike to work ? ) .

10. Will not want to extinguan
Well, as far as the human race , probably not going away any time soon - but we are spending our faster than we can replenish resources , and that's bad .

If we continue at the same rate we're going to now finally be left without fossil fuels, treeless, pure and clean water , in conclusion everything else that is not sustainable. In order to maintain our current lifestyle, we are all going to have to start worrying more about the environment .

11. Saving the world , improve your lifestyle
One of the major concerns of many people is that being green will require a huge change in lifestyle . Again, this is true in some cases, but it is not nearly the whole story. You can do a lot for the environment while improving your lifestyle .
For example : Would you rather change a light bulb once a year or once every ten years? If you chose ten you should switch to CFL lighting environment . Oh, and save some money.

12. World Peace
Peace in the world seems like a difficult task , but considering the fact that most of the world's wars have been fought for control of natural resources , it is not too exaggerated. If we reach the point where we are living sustainably and technology provide us with all our needs for resources , things will be very different. There will be fewer wars , less poor and hungry , and we will be creating a lifestyle that can continue indefinitely.

Letter to a techno geek friend

For my Second period exam i wrote a letter to my techno geek friend the has just come up with the idea that robots will substitute humans in every ascpect of our lifes.

Hi friend

Hope that you are fine, in your last mail you wrote about robots. In my opinion I think that robots will never substitute a human, because we have life and they don´t. unless we have a lot of robots in Earth. If this would happen I won’t able to be happy, also think it will be horrible to have a robot mom, would you like it? Even if I disagree with your idea I think that by 2050 we will have found balance I our life and I hope that we will still be alive because if we don’t take care we are going to die.

With love: Laila
