"Environment Protection: Change To Help"

 


        Environment is our life, it's situation is also our situation. We have been being ignorant towards our environment, we've been being violent, over using and abusing it for how many thousands of years. Now, we are experiencing Climate Change and we have been just notified recently that we might experience its irreversible effect in the incoming years. We often forget how much humans depend on nature. Even city-dwellers living in modern skyscrapers need air to breathe, water to drink, and food to eat, all of which are provided by nature. True, you can buy bottled water and ready-to-eat meals in supermarkets, but they were not produced there.



        To prevent from worsening the situation of our environment, we need to protect and care for it. We need to follow the 3 "R's", Reduce, Reuse and Recycle to conserve natural resources and landfill space. Volunteer to cleanup drives in your community or school. Educate yourself about the environment, know the things that you should do and not to do in the environment. Plant trees because they provide food and oxygen, they are helpful in saving energy, clean the air, and help combat climate change. Conserve water, the less water you use, the less runoff and wastewater that eventually end up in the ocean. Bike more, drive less. Be responsible and cautious to your doings.

    We can start helping the environment to let it survive by helping first our selves to be responsible and make a change in our ways on using it's properties. With the current situation of our environment, it is very evident that people in this planet do not yet understand the importance of environment in our life. We need to understand and have enough knowledge about the environment so that we will going to be cautious with our actions towards it. Again, helping the environment starts with you. Change to help.
