Do we care about our planet ?


Do we care about our planet? If we have a look at how much we are polluting our planet, by using cars, operating industrial factories, and cutting forests, then we can say that our planet is a sort of a dumping place where we can throw all our trash, without thinking about the consequences that will affect our planet and ourselves by the many diseases it causes.
Another alarming result of the increasing levels of pollution is GLOABAL WARMING.
This problem that has occupied the minds of many, and has taken the center of attention, and become the most serious problem our planet is suffering from.
Every day we hear about damages occurring on this planet which will destroy the human’s fingerprint on this land and will leave this planet unbalanced.
So, I hope that you noticed me repeating the same word “PLANET”, yes our planet is our shelter, and nobody can live without a home, so let’s help our planet to be the perfect place for us to live in.

Green Horizons



Talking about Global Warming has taken up quite a lot of our daily concerns, but have we ever decided to put those concerns into real done work instead of words only, to stop pursuing the "talk is cheap" habit  and get into action!!!?

GW's effects are aggravating; for besides having the earth's temperature rising at one part of the earth, somewhere else on earth is getting drowned by floods, smashed by earthquakes and molten by volcanoes! Seas' and oceans' water proportions are highly increasing dragging us into evacuating our homes and leaving life with our lungs overly-saturated with water! For and foremost, it deprived us from the joy of witnessing snow at Christmas and New Year's Eve, took from us the summery days spent in pools replacing them with stay-at-home days out of fear of being hit by the intensity of the sun and therefore killed! Instead, it gave us the chilly days devoid of rain and rife with easily-transferred winter diseases such as the widely spread epidemic "The Swine Flu" we're currently suffering from! The Globally renowned problem is becoming the talk of the city, and nothing is done comparatively to what is being caused and nor anybody else is facing the truth that something got to be changed and that people should stand against it or else everything on earth is demolished! Therefore, we better lend the initiating hand and help others to lend theirs, for it doesn't need to spend billions and trillions in order to solve such a problem, conversely it only needs the sensibility in the usage of polluting materials and devices, also using catalysts as a mean of lessening emissions of gases from car exhausts and factories!

And don't forget that by committing to those actions we can save not only our future but also the future of our children!
