Dear Community Citizens,
Over these few years there has been an increase of global disasters such as hurricanes, tsunamis, earthquakes and floods all because of global warming. We went from having snow that went up to our knees to almost skipping winter this year. So what does that tell you? It means the world is coming to an end if this keeps up. You might think ‘Oh well it’s just one piece of garbage I’m littering and the earth is huge it could never fall apart’ but every little bit counts until it adds up to be something we’ll all regret. This society has become lazy and careless, we procrastinate and say I’ll take care of it tomorrow but tomorrow never comes, it’s about what’s happening now and the decisions we make today. We’re born on this earth to live life as best as we can but not only for ourselves for the others we care about. I know what you’re all thinking; you’re thinking ‘by the time the earth is destroyed I’ll already be gone so why take care of something that can’t benefit me?’ Well think about your children, the next generation, they deserve better than that and shouldn’t pay for your mistakes.
Everywhere I see smoke creating pollution. Garbage on the ground, memorial places that looks like a dump yard, why can’t we wait until we reach a garbage bin? Why must we thrown away a simple wrapper that we can just hold on to? Is it because it gets in the way or just too lazy to walk a few meters? Could it be that we love the thrill of doing a criminal act? Well you’re not being cool by being lazy, it’s pathetic. Cigarettes are the #1 earth destroying product out there. First of all it will kill you, second it pollutes and second hand smoke, but the most common thing is littering after it’s done. Transportation has become the #1 air polluting product, everybody needs one and it seems like walking is out of style these days. What’s so wrong with walking? Its exercise that means you get healthier and you’re little bit of a hero.
The truth is everything has a consequence and sometimes you think you get away with it but the innocents get hurt and karma will hit you ‘what goes around comes around” all because of that casual drive or that one piece of wrapper you can’t seem to hold on to One day it could be you caught in a tornado or drowning in the flood that you helped start. Why do we learn from our mistakes once it happens? Why can’t we learn and avoid the mistake that could cause someone’s life? You shouldn’t be mad at the world or God if something goes the wrong way or the weather’s not nice, you should just be disappointed at yourself.
We all know the solutions to help the world but why don’t we listen? You hear it all the time. Do this, do that! So how come we try to do the opposite? We rebel for the wrong reasons. Listen to your moral conscience. I’m just sharing my moral viewpoint to get the word out so you should do that same. I’m not saying that we should be perfect but at least reduce some of those mistakes. We just human but we have the power to change the future for all of mankind. Don’t let animals get extinct or nature to become nothing but a dry desert. Don’t be afraid to share your opinions or stand up for you beliefs.
Don’t stand by, Stand up!
