Save the Earth !

Earth Day Observance !




"It takes a strong man to save himself, and a great man to save another."
-Red from the movie Shawshank Redemption.

We must all have noticed that temperatures are getting warmer, year by year and so is the pollution, the size of the cars and their gas consumption, the amount of electrical appliances we use in everyday life and the cans, bottles and paper. Aren't we using all the earth's resources ? What are we giving it back ? Give it a thought.

In every part of the world, both land and water, in melting glaciers and disappearing snow, heat waves and droughts, hurricanes and earthquakes and Tsunamis - the world is witnessing tremendous and undeniable evidence that the nature's cycles are changing.

'An Inconvenient Truth' - By Al Gore is a book I bought and found interesting. He writes about Global Warming and steps we can do about it. Wonderful Book ! He says " Inconvenient truths do not go away just because they are not seen. Indeed, when they are not responded to, their significance doesn't diminish; it grows ! " You can get this book from amazon.com for just $5.

Please take a step, this day being, Earth day, with me, by taking simple steps towards saving our home !
