♥ Not The Time
Seems like the world is ending.
Which is a very scary thought.
Haiti. and now Chile.
Plus the heat wave we're going through now. Water levels in the dam are low.
The other day I had an assignment on Global Warming and while doing researches for it, reading about it makes it even more frightening. What more for those people who don't give a damn about it.
It's really frightening for me to even think that one day the planet is just gonna disappear. I have not graduated. And what more have not travelled around the world which is my ultimate goal of living in this planet! There are so many things I have not seen yet! I don't want to die now...
I know it's really really late but better late than never. From today, 1st March 2010, I will definitely try to to simple things to save the environment!
Some simple things we can ALL do to be a part of it.
1) Clean or replace filters on our air conditioners
Cleaning a dirty filter can save 350 pounds of carbon dioxide a year
2)Do not leave appliances on standby
Instead, use the on/off button on the machine itself.
3)Use less hot water
It takes a lot of energy to heat water
4)Reuse shopping bags
When shopping, it saves energy and waste to use a reusable bag instead of accepting a disposable one at every shop
5)Plant a tree
A single tree will absorb one ton of carbon dioxide over it's lifetime
6)Buy fresh food instead of frozen ones
Frozen food uses 10 times more energy to produce
There are more you can do to help save the planet. For more things we can do, you can click HERE.
I will TRY not to take plastic bags too. Just bring a bigger bag to stuff all the things inside.
Hopefully SLOWLY BUT SURELY works here. =/
