Saving The Planet
If we really want to save our planet we have to be serious about it.
No more aggressive behaviour either individually or by nationsor political groups. At present humanity is behaving like teenagers scrapping together on a railway track with an express train minutes away from crushing them.
We have no time for wars. all our financial and intellectual assets should be put to use ensuring that in as little as ten years time the planet should be habitable for the human race. Already millions are dying every year from starvation, diseases, wars and massacres, natural disasters such as earthquakes, floods and droughts. In spite of these facts the developed nations are wasting money on armaments.
The only thing we individuals can do is ensure that we do our little bit of cutting down on our use of fuels, rely on sustainable sources for our food and as many other products as we can.
Recycling can be fun finding ways to reuse things instead of throwing them away.
Try growing your own soft fruits and vegetables. Even if you haven't got a garden you can grow a surprising number of things in containers (re-used ice cream tubs, biscuit tins with holes punched in the bottom for drainage, etc.).
If you've got children offer them a prize for the one who comes up with the best ideas for recycling or thinking up good ideas for reducing your carbon footprint.
Here's to the future!
