a climate in crisis

it's always summer in singapore and you'd think we wld be used to the heat by now... but seriously, it is getting too hot now... even the water in the pool @ nite is warm!

it is sad (that's an understatement) that in our chase for a better world ie. free trade=better economy has led us to embark on massive constructions which used up natural resources, emitting harmful gasses into the earth- the coal, the oil...

and we get so absorbed in this money-making, and as we gain in wealth, we spend more... buy more but also throw more. and as the weather gets hot, we quickly pamper ourselves with air conditioning... hmmm...

but is global awareness through 24hr concerts by the latest stars the way to go? we can discount the noise pollution generated from the artists and fans... but ok.. let's think... the climate needs urgent rescuing and in dire need for plaster... to cover the big hole(s) in the ozone layer... but having ppl gather at concerts aint gonna help (much)... imagine the no of smokers & the smoke, the bottles of beer, the plastic cups, the rubbish... helping? nah...

but what is the best way to promote green living? hmmm...

but anyway, now that the ex- VP of US was lauded for his "The Inconvenient Truth", i hope people wld watch it. and yes, i wished our country had just persisted and continued with that green frog... "Green For Life... Forever"

ok... grab a reusable bag, bring your own water bottle, wear cotton and REDUCE, REUSE, RECYCLE.

we really need the ice caps on Mount Kilimanjaro back, the Arctic to not absorb heat... and just for the Earth to be okay. we may not have eternal life, but at least let us not be the ones destroying our Home.

Don't just wear green, be GREEN.

May He bless us all.
