Global warming is a big issue nowadays but it seems that not everyone is aware of it and so I came to a conclusion that I will help motivate myself and other people to help and bring Mother Earth back to a healthy life. As a part of this Earth I need to do my part, and I hope that this little act of posting some of my edits will do.
I may not be the best or atleast others is way way better than I'am in terms of digital editing but I did my best to show you guys what really is the problem. I wish I can do more. My brain is practically puking such wonderful ideas but I just dont know how to materialize those thoughts. I promise to take up some lessons and learn at the very least the basics so I can give you something more cool. :D
The following are edited pictures. My overwhelming thanks to http://www.picnik.com/
So here's my edits for you to see. ;)) [some of them are really boring, I tell you but I tried my best to put on something reflective]
(I will have captions that is I think makes you reflect and urge you to do your part and a bit of explaining and telling stories of my own to all poster/doodle)
"Little actions means alot if done properly."
I made that quote up. It is adopted from Bee Movie (2007). I was supposed to get a quote from the movie because I knew a line that'll help but I was afraid that I got the line wrong. I researched and stuff but didn't found any. I was about to watch the movie again in DVD until I realized its already 2 in the morning. So if you happened to remember or know the line please tell. I would be grateful.
Okay back to the photo/poster/doodle or whatever you want to call that. Greenpeace has once said, minimizing the use of electricity will help the Earth so why not start in one simple act of turning of the lights?? :D It will not hurt you if you turn off the lights when you're about to sleep. You're going to close your eyes anyway. Or if your not good in sleeping with lights off, try to turnoff the lights if its not helping. Like for example, turning on the lights during day time baths when the sun is blaring outside and your window is enough to supply you the right amount of light to see. What's the use of lights? People, saving electricity will give you alot of benifits. Besides from saving Mother Earth, you are also saving natural resources, raw materials and your own bucks! Now isn't that great? You have extra cash now to buy the Victoria Secret lip gloss you like or extra cash to put on your saving account to buy the cool car you like! :)) ;P
"RRR baby!"
What are magic words? Is it something like abracadabra in magic shows? Or is it the word you thought when your 6, please and thank you? But in terms of the environment REUSE RECYCLE AND REDUCE are the magic words. Well how can we do this. Its easy. I love shopping. From the biggest department stores to weekly bazaars. I would like to shop from sales to groceries. ;) What I do is when I go shopping in the I'll see to it that my purchased will be put on a paper bag or anything not or atleast less plastic. Paper bags are nice alternatives than plastics. Paper bags can be reuse and sometimes its a memorabilia to a thing you purchased. It may not be as durable as plastic but its more pretty *wink wink.
Raw material for plastic is not a renewable source. So every plastic means alot for the environment. :D
"Walk. Don't zoom!"
When your house or apartment is just around the block and you are to buy some items at a nearby grocery thats rougly just a few miles away try not to use a car. If you're afraid that walking would be hard because of the heavy bags that's full of cans and cans of whatever bring your man and let him help you carrying those heavy bags. This will also a way of spending time together and a chance to have a romantic walk. If you're a single lady you could bring a bicyle with a basket in front or whatsoever to help you carry those heavy bags when you go home. It's also an excuse to that cute guy in your building to help you carry those up in your floor. :D
Cars emmits a smoke thats is hazardous both to the environment and to your health. It causes the ozone layer (a thin layering above the Earth that protects us from direct sulight) to thin and eventually will create a hole that will cause the UV rays to enter the Earth freely. And by the way, UV rays can cause skin cancer.
"sunburn"
This sucks. I want it to be the best but it didn't come out very well. The proportions made it bad. The world Earth is a little too big and the word burning is way small. Im truly sorry.
Why burning? As I said to the previous posters/doodles, there are some molecules present in Earth that really help us like Carbon Dioxide that helps the trees in photosynthesis. But since trees has been cut down alot than before there are an increase of C02 in the environment which cause the thinning of the ozone layer that will eventually lead to hole which we'll cause the entrance of harmful reys of the sun the can be hazardous to our health.
Global warming also cause the melting of the ice in the North and South poles. The melting of the ice causes rise in sea level and some small islands will be soon be erase on the map. Other causes of Global Warming ate extinction of animals that live in cold areas like Polar Bears and Penguins. It also very dangerous to men bacause it cause various skin, respiratory and other illness.
Some scientists said that if we'll not save the Earth now we may go back to pre-history with caveman and the weather would be hot. Now, who the hell woulde like that? Well I dont.
So here is the conclusion
This are just simple reminders that we often forget beacause of overwhelming advances in the world today. Just always remember that the Earth is our home but sadly we just borrowed it from the Creator and at somepoint we need to give it back. Hmm. What will you feel if someone borrowed say.... an Ipod from you, the gadget was in perfect condition and when the person who borrowed it from you returned it it's almost not working? It's screen was broken. You're lucky it turned on. What would you feel? You suddenly want to kill the person right? Let this be something to remember. The Earth is God's Ipod that He made us borrow. And like all of us, He wants it in perfect condition when we return it. :D
