Our Planet Earth

The world is changing. Day by day. Minute by minute. Second by second. Our planet Earth is going through a huge phase of global warming. It is a grave problem in today's world. We are technologically advanced and very populous, but with great power comes greater responsibility.

Since the invention of the automobile, the world has been facing immense challenges due to green house gas emissions and oil resources. Fossil fuel reserves are depleting and wildlife is disappearing: fast. The many things our world is now going through are mostly to be blamed on us.

We are the ones, in the name of technology, who use automobiles. We are the ones who own the factories that pollute the world so much. We are the ones that are responsible for the destruction of the ozone layer. There is so much that we are responsible for, yet so less we are doing.

Today's science is still a baby compared to the problems it needs to solve. We are the ones who started it, and we need to be the ones to end it as well. Every citizen of the world needs to do their part. It may be just as small as walking to work, or as big as finding more renewable resources.

We need to stop wasting our precious resources, and learn to sustain them for longer. We need to learn how to save our planet, save mankind. This is not something we need to take lightly. It is the solution to a better future. We need to do something, and we can. We just need to put in a little more effort. Where there's a will, there's a way.

It's still not too late to do something. We still have time, and we need to use it wisely. Focus on sustaining ourselves and our planet for eons to come.
