Lately, we noticed that the weather is changing and there has been a lot of tragedy concerning nature. I owe it to the global warming and our continous abuse of the Earth.Do you care?
What do you do to contribute in saving the Earth even on your own little way? I know not all of us can be Al Gore to produce a documentary video that can wake up the whole world, nor we all can be members of environmental organization but Im sure a lot of us are aware of the problem and does this way to help.
With me, I try to avoid using plastic as much as I can. If the store gave me a plastig bag for my purchases, I refuse it if the product I bought can be stuffed in my bag. Also, I save all the plastic bags that I have for shopping in another time so I dont have to buy or get another one again. Plastic is one the things that pollute the air, the water and the land.
Share yours.

I am ashamed on myself that I don't contribute anything to save our planet. On the contrary, I have been using these plastic bags..
But now, I'll start on with plantation of trees. As we hardly have any rains here in city, people here can plant trees so that it can bring about some change in the cycle.
Also, minimal use of the non-renewable resources will help a lot and I'll definitely do it..

I'm composting and gardening and recycling and using cloth bags, for a start. I also try to eat healthier which usually means buying stuff with less packaging. I also try to shop more locally at farmers markets and farmstands and free-range producers of meat and eggs.
