Thursday, May 23

During class on May 23rd we watched some films about the environment. The videos are about how we as human beings are hurting the environment. At first I did not believe any of it! But then as I kept listening it made more and more sense to me. The video talked about how we are ruining the environment because we use too much water, waste too many things and the trees are taking up too much space. The videos also said that we are over populating. Basically that we are taking over the planet and not letting enough nature grasp the Earth. I didn't think this could be true at first but then I thought "how much water/electricity/energy do I conserve each day?" The answer is not very much. It is something that we do not think about and without thinking about it is why we are in the situation that we are in now. I do not believe that our planet is going to turn to ruins in the next decade but I do believe that it is going to happen eventually; unless we do something about it. It is going to take a lot more than a voice or a blog to make a change but I believe that it can be done with the right people and the right attitude. As long as people make a change, we will not become the Country that everyone expects us to become.
