Being green to save the world

The world is facing the largest danger soon when the homosapiens vanish bit by bit. Human activity has been increasing the concentration of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere (mostly carbon dioxide from combustion of coal, oil, and gas; plus a few other trace gases). There is no scientific debate on this point. However, we can feel that the climate is warming. The public's awareness about Global Warming is extremely high. How can we cope with this issue? We as the citizens must play our own role. You don't have to share the same bath water to make a difference. If we are given only 365 days to save the world, what would you possible do to change the world?There are some easy ways to save the world.


a) Communicate with public transport, bike and walking. This saves a lot of fossil fuels overtime.
b)Use less energy at home. Tuunneccrn essary electricity off when you are not using it. Using less energy will contribute less to global warming. Use less energy means your power bill is lower. Therefor, you can save more in the long run.
c)Say no to plactic bags. Bags kill 100,000 birds, whales, seals and turtles every year.


d)Be water-wise. Always check that you have turned taps off properly: a dripping tap loses about two drops a second, which is around 90 litres a week.


e)Think before you bin anything. Use your local council's recycling scheme to dispose of paper, glass and plastics: if they don't collect from your home,make it an effort to find your nearest recycling facility. And remember, it's not just the obvious items that can be reused. Recycle and make the right choice to save the world.
f) Start now. What are you waiting for. Even every bit does help.
