I love nature so much. I am fond of watching tress and plants dancing when the wind blows them. It's like they are playing with the wind together and gives us fresh air. I love watching the blue sky. I am living in somewhere mountainous. I am on top and so lucky to to see the city while I am sitting in our terrace. I see the ocean with the boats floating. In the morning, the cool fresh air welcomes me and greet me a very good morning that makes me start my day right. But I was so upset. here in our place, when I heard machines cutting the trees, digging the land because someone wanted to build a village makes me mad and sad. Poor trees that gives everybody air was cut in exchange to that village. When it rains heavily, no more trees that supports here. Flood is what we encounter. I am afraid that no more trees in our place. The air in the midst of the day I saw floating in the sky are the smoke from the burned plastics and rubbers that caused the blue sky dark. I hate to see them. It's too painful to see environment was hurt. I wanted to save environment. I am currently saving money now to buy a lot for planting trees, To build garden. To see something green even though its just one place. In that way I think I could help. I lessen the use of plastics. I didn't burn them, I didn't throw them in the garbage coz I know they will just be burned. I am loving this nature, this environment, this world where I am coz this is my shelter. This is where living things are residing. Without this world, we are homeless. I wanted to save world by simply doing good things for the environment since everything starts within ourselves and to other people.
How about you? What did you do to help environment?

For the environment, I ignore the man caused global climate change hoax, I work against laws forcing us to use "ethanol" which causes worse gas mileage and requires more pollution to produce and ship than simple gasoline alone.
I walk where I can, and grow my own veggies in the summer.

Yes, I actually like to put some garden near house once I paid the lot and start planting something green which looks nature friendly. I don't like to buy cars it's not on my plan ever since! Coz I know that will add up smoke belching that spreads in the atmosphere and add the traffic here in our country. How I wish everything will be okay. For sure, if mother earth knows how to cry, she did. :(

I do whatever I can to reduce my impact on the environment. I spend a major part of my time working with electronics, and I always endeavour to use components that are more efficient, or parts that perform multiple tasks at the same time. I always try and reuse components, which saves money and resources.
There are simple things that I have around the house that help me monitor my environmental footprint. I've installed a filter on our shower that reduces the water usage by about 30% without any noticeable reduction in the end pressure. Another feature I have is using the heating on a timing system that is only active when everyone is at home; with a feature that allows someone to heat a specific room rather than the whole house. This has removed a large chunk of our energy bill already.
I also try and repair as many of the appliances and gadgets as possible, even doing so for my neighbours and friends. This not only increases the product life, but reduces consumption of fuel, logistics, time and money, all contributing to reducing our impact on the environment

Well, i encourage you so much doing so ftrazona, where i live, in a city, there is not much trees. At least i can't see one, lol.
But i gess anyone can make a difference even by doing little things like you did.
I gess everyone is responsible for protecting the world where we live, even small actions can do help, even throwing garbage in the right places is good thing to do, i believe in that too.
" Start doing it your by yourself before blaming others " that's my slogan.

First of all, I did everything I learned when I was studying. I planted trees last year which was my New Year's Resolution. I'm also using old bottles, plastic cups, and cans as my plant pot. I am also making sure that my front yard and backyard are clean. I didn't use air-con last summer too. I help these little things could help the environment.

If people really try to build and instill a culture preserver. In the spirit of cultural conservationists, people always take into consideration the good and bad aspects in the use of natural products. In terms of the good that humans act selectively and take what is needed without being wasteful. Thus, humans have felt themselves as part of nature that must be preserved.
One of the things that needs to be done is instil the culture of conservationists to children education since being on the bench. For example, giving a larger portion much less about the environmental problems that terbangunlah spirit awareness to appreciate and respect the neighborhood. Not limited to that alone, but should also get the kids to get involved in the efforts of environmental preservation. Thus, the combination of theory and practice.
Planting a conservationist culture done early is a very effective effort to address the issue of environmental damage that occurred. Surely here requires the participation and responsibility of parents in the family and in the whole process of education at the school. Thus, through habituation performed continuously coming generations are increasingly aware of the importance of preserving the environment. Furthermore, the awareness can also be done as a habit that helped shape the sense of human responsibility in the use environment.
