Going Green


The weather these days are really unpredictable and not because we are not doing anything but just our doings are not enough! Probably we are still understanding the nature of Mother Earth.

Everyday people from all over the world and all walks of life, organizations, the government and private sectors are trying very hard! But, the fact is the damaging is still more than the savings!
Thus, we have to keep on doing it everyday, every minute and every moment of our life!

When we stressed on everyday living on green, the word eco will definitely be the best that we can offer. We have to get used to being eco on our daily usage, the biggest harm there is is in here!

In our effort to do so, our supermarts & hypermarts took first step on this - cut down on plastic shopping bags. One group that does this will not only help but also will save their own pockets by not giving out plastic bags for 3 days! Some does it for a day and others for 2 days a week. Well, this do help.

Hopefully what they are doing everywhere will encourage the new generation to do even more, of which I find that they are not! many youngsters are still throwing things away! They are not used to picking them up actually. They find it shy to do so.

From around my place, I find water bottles being sprawled all over the area, even the floors! Cans from their drinks too! It's the workers ( bangladeshi ) who will be going around collecting them during their daily routine job. Well, at least they know these things will provide for their pocket money at the end of the day. And they are not shy. I, for this instance regularly pick up something from the floor when doing my strolls or passing by.
Our local daily newspaper has been doing this campaign for the last couple of years and looks like their continued efforts are showing results, especially on the youngsters.
Hope their keen campaigns will continue on regular basis throughout the year!
Keep it up! Keep up the good work!
Of course the hope is that more people will step forward to participate.
Our weather is changing at a very fast pace!
it's been reported recently that our sea level is rising considerably too!
The current going on of typhoons in the Asia is a sign of unhealthy weather.
And it is still brewing! Just these few days, after typhoon wrecked havoc in The Philippines,
it has headed for further destructions over in China!
Over in Europe continents too storms are being felt!
And it doesn't seem to be going away! Seems like more are coming their way!
Let's all do something to prevent, everyday!
Have a pleasant weekEND!
