The conversation just seems to strike up from nowhere. As we were having our usual chat over lunch, suddenly we are into the environmental issue. It might due to the hot weather recently or the haze or because of the fruits packed in plastic bag that we were eating!
Everyone, I believed almost everyone, is now aware of the environmental issues that were brought up over all these years. Thanks to the environmentalists who have been trying so hard to raise the awareness among us. We have been hearing on terms like green house effect, global warming, recycling, endangered species, pollution and etc.
However, even if we do have the tiny bit of awareness in us, do we actually take any action on it? That's a good question that my friend had brought up at the chat. Having the awareness is actually not enough. It is the action that will really help in saving our environment. Although you might think that the action from you alone might not have much impact on the environment, but if everyone thinks the same way, then there will be huge adverse impact on the earth.
It indeed will take a long time for the everyone to change, to do their environmental bit daily, to save the earth. But there are people who have started doing it already. You might not get used to it at first, or you might seems to be the odd one out among your peers. However, if what you are doing is right, why bothers about what others think?
Hence, just a question, have you done your bit for the environment today?
Walking the talk.
