Ten years ago, but just live my life in three main areas: school, home and church and with a few things that I carry almost every day: a computer, books of the Bible, and pens. I do not eat much junkfoods. I did not yet displayed on the computer and mobile phone. There are no Internet cafes, but only rice fields with fruit trees where you would normally spend the weekend and we have churchmates with my country. The weather was not too hot after that time. We can walk under the sun for several hours, even just to get my friend on a farm and eat the mangosteen.
Now, turning a simple life to complex life is high, and advanced technology. I spend the weekend that you have made to the shopping center, and Internet cafes, coffee shops, cinema and eating in a series of fast-food restaurants. I do not go out of the house without a mobile phone. I put the lunch packed in a plastic bag. I love junk foods. I usually eat canned foods, noodles to it for awhile. I do not go to farms anymore. I love shopping.
This is your lifestyle? Always on the go? Move quickly? Time turned into a fast-paced environment where boundaries are broken because of the high-tech. Shopping malls and fast food restaurants are growing rapidly. There is almost no time to stay home and spend some time with the family.
This is a way of life affects our environment?
Have you noticed that the weather is getting warmer? Or in some cases, it is uncertain. We do not know when it rains. We can not stay longer in the sun even with umbrellas, and unfortunate that these field workers who have no other choice but to work under the sun. It is global warming, I say.
Yes, we always say: "Well, global warming, you know?" However, we realized that contributed to each and every one of us, and will always contribute in this so-called global warming, unless the practice green life?
If you are conscious not only with daily activities, especially on the amount of waste generated every day, then you know at the end of the day, how much you contribute to climate change.
Increasing generation of waste and due to a change in lifestyle, from the simple to the one advanced and more complex. If you live in this present life, I was to estimate the generation of 1,5 kg of waste per day. When multiplied by the per capita generation of waste to thousands of people living in cities, then imagine how much we waste accumulate in a single day. Can be found on most of these wastes in the fast-food restaurants, where usually what we eat or the output of food, where students were in schools, bring lunch in the "pack styro" or Cellophanes plastic, in coffee shops, Internet cafes and cinemas, where eaten junkfoods always, or even in your home where you can usually eat canned foods, pasta, or even food prepared from the market are packed in plastic bags, classes, and during the meetings and conventions where food is served with the articles, "far throw" such as straw, cups, utensils, disposable styro packs. All of these wastes end just to waste bins.Waste of funds, and where they go? It can be in the garbage dump, and along the streets and canals, or worse, burned. This contributed not to climate change, floods, water and air pollution?
If we get sick of hot weather is unbearable, and now by floods caused by heavy rains just short, how much more in the future if we do not stop what we are doing since the change of the pattern of our lives? How can our sons and daughters and the next generation? We can settle his future with the waste is managed for us?
