Save the World, Save Our Environment

www.actualglobe.com is a website where some of the latest blogs deal with environment. We, human beings have taken our environment for granted, not realizing that we are digging our own graves. It is time we thought more of the world we live in.

With the festival of Christmas just around the corner, people are out shopping for family and friends, often wondering what would be the best present to get without emptying the pocket.

Gifts made of natural stuff which is organic and biodegradable will certainly assist us in our fight to save our environment. T shirts made of natural matter are available and these are not very expensive. Coloring stuff and books for young ones can have environment as their themes. Gifting bead necklaces, bracelets and other things also makes sense as these beads are biodegradable. Perhaps the best gift would be to grow a tree in the recipient’s name. It would be unique and unforgettable besides being good and different. Young plants or seeds are available in the local nurseries.

Food items that can be sent as gifts should also use recyclable material for containers. Cute containers of recyclable material are also available. One can make sauces, or cakes or some exotic edible stuff and send them to people who could send them as gifts, in reusable containers. There are so many other similar ideas. One needs to innovate, think and send gifts using biodegradable stuff and non toxic material.

A look around us shows that our environment has changed because of us. There are more storms, cyclones and the like because we have cut down trees indiscriminately and have not given them a second thought. We use paper napkins, paper plates, cups and other such stuff without realizing that for each of these things a lot of trees need to be cut.

If we decide to use washable napkins instead of disposable paper napkins, if we use normal plates and cups instead of paper ones, if we slow down on newspapers or recycle them, we should be making some progress. With Halloween just gone and Christmas fast approaching, there is much party stuff made of paper which is lying unutilized. We can use it for Christmas instead of buying new things. Or use biodegradable matter which will cut down on tree cutting numbers.

There is a lot of disparity in the world. There are very poor nations and very rich ones. This is yet another recent blog in the above mentioned website. The poor nations depend on the rich ones for help. The richer ones are more worried about their own economic condition. Both forget that they have to live symbiotically and not in isolation. Then only will the world prosper.

Global stability can be achieved by the whole world as one and there should be no disparities. One should not ignore the world in the haste for economic stability. Both are important.
