This has GOT to stop!
Jun. 27th, 2008 04:49 amIt's ARROGANT to think we as human beings are the only species on the planet. We CANNOT destroy more rain forests for the sake of producing ethanol. We CANNOT stop producing rice in order to use those fields to grow corn. We CANNOT continue to pollute the air and water with OUR waste and kill the animals that live there!
The world's dirtiest cities
Looming eco-disasters
Industries that need to shape up
Five ways we are killing our planet
Now, I don't know how much of this is hype or how much of it is actual fact, but the fact is we ALL have to start using recyclable products, or better yet, no plastic plates/paper cups/paper towels. We can use ceramic or metal utensils and wash them out, effectively reducing waste in our environment. I don't care if you say "It's not my problem", it IS. It's everyone's problem to fix this, no matter how old you are, starting with turning out any lights/unplugging appliances, etc. WE are killing ourselves and every other form of life on this planet in our greed! That is incredibly unfair!
