ok im gonna admit it, until two months ago i would say i was the least environmental friendly person you could find.
But somehow that has all changed.
and i have to credit twitter for changing that... you see, i found this little girl on twitter by accident. At the mere age of seven, this little girl is already a philanthropist... and that got me thinking, she is seven and im seventeen, and somehow she has more sense of responsibility than me. How embarrassing is that??
So from then on i told myself, you are going to take responsibility for your actions. In the seventeen years of my life the amount the amount of damage i have made to the earth is just immense.. so if someone who have been on this earth for less than a decade amd undoubtedly done less damage to it then me, can take responsibilty towards their actions, THEN WHY NOT ME??
I used to complaint everyday about how hot it is....but thats all did, complaint, i did nothing to try to change that or stoping it from getting worse. I mean whose fault is it that everyday we feel that we are in a melted pot? who fault is it that everyday animals loose their habitat due to deforestation? whose fault is it that the sea level keeps rising because the ice is melting? IT IS OUR FAULT! no one else but us....
Im not going to be impractical, i understand that we all cant be tree hugging people, but what im merely suggesting is that every little thing we CAN make a difference...recycle, dont waste paper, dont waste water, switch of the electrical products when not using.... this are some of the little things that can be done EVERYDAY!
isnt it only fair that if were were to cut down tree, we plant them back?? is it so hard to take five minutes to plant a tree??
i know it would be easier to blame our country leaders for not running a more green country, but if out so called "leaders" are not going to take actions, why cant we start taking matters into our own hands??
educate ourself on matters regarding earth.... it is through knowledge can we truly understand and from there try to fix our lifestyle to one that doesn't cause as much a damage as it does now.
im not going to pretend that is an easy job living a green lifestyle....but its not impossible....
i believe anything is possible as long as we work together
and remember ever little goes a loooong way!!
