Climate Change

Okie, since the copenhagen talk is on the way. i shall blog a bit about how we can help to improve the climate changes with our strength.

CUT DOWN ON ELECTRICITY USAGE BY
-off appliances that you do not use.
-off all switches that is on standby.
-use energy saving lightbulbs.
-WATCH LESS TV AND USE LESS COMPUTER

RECYCLE
-plastic water bottles
-used papers
-plastic bags
-soft drinks cans
-newspaper
-old cardboxes

USE LESS OF
-styrofoam products
-plastic bags ( use recycle bags)
-paper (dont anyhow print things )
-plastic boxes

DO
-plant more trees
-litter less
-less dumping in the sea
-take more public transport when travelling


though its seemed mediocre to do these ourselves, if a lot of people do these together, it is gonna do the earth good. it is just like the case of if everyone in china gives me 10cents, i will become a millionair.

the talks at copenhagen is about cutting down carbon emmision. but this is not enough. the government should also do something more to cut down on pollution. they should make sure that government body themselves set an example by using energy saving bulbs themselves first, cut down on air conditioning in all government bodies, and require all food courts inside their complexs to not use styrofoam products.

My army camp for example, even if we are dining inside the canteen, they provide us with styrofoam cups, plates, and disposable utensils. i find that this is totally not environmental friendly.

Another issue is with public transport.
if the government wants us to cut down our personal carbon footprints, please do make public transport cheaper instead of keep increasing the price of it. if that is the case, people would feel more encouraged to take public transport than personal transport.

IF the government dont do wat they preach, how do the people be convinced that there is an urgency to save mother earth?

All people think of is profits, money and success. but if the world continue to fail, even with state of art technology, even with all the money in the world, we could not reverse the harm that is done.

So i plead with the world.
Do however little u could to save the earth. even if it seemed so little to be noticable, you will still help.
