Do you think
that the future generation will still be able to experience and see the beauty
we’re currently living in? Will they be able to see the different species that
are now endangered? Feel the fresh air that we’re having right now? Can we
still continue this current life style without changing the quality of life
style in the future?
It’s
possible but I think it’s a little bit too late. Some people are starting to
change because they can already experience the bad effect of it, but some
people they still continue doing things that harms the environment. I hate it
but most of the people prefer to be rich, to have a good economic status than
to save our planet. It’s like a mine; they prefer to choose the gold than to
save the earth.
Here
in my hometown in Biñan
Laguna, I already experience having a flood. When I was a kid, whenever there’s
a typhoon it will flood but it will quickly drain, but now it will take a week
or more before it drains (as you can see in the picture). I think it’s because
of the new villages and the loss of other farms in the area. Now people around there are starting to
change, especially in the market place. They’re promoting the use of bayong and paper bags. They are very
strict in using plastics. When they see you using plastic they will punish you
by cleaning the area. There we’re also preserved ancestral homes and other
historical landmarks. So I would say
that in my hometown we’re trying and coping to live sustainably.
We should
always remember that everything is limited and we should always give importance
to everything we have. We should learn to be contented of what we have and not
ask for more. Getting only the right amount and necessary things that will
satisfy our needs and not always the wants.
We should be
responsible for everything here on earth and maintain it for the future users. I
hope that the gold will turn to green.
