                                               Taking Care Of Our Environment 

First of all, to take care of the environment, you need to develop a concern in your heart. Concern makes all the difference. See around yourself, the trees, the flowers, the azure of the sky, birds chirruping, beautiful scenes of sunrise and sunset. Don't you feel attracted by these phenomena? If yes, your concern to save the environment will automatically rise, as neglection of the environment will adversely affect these things. 

We fulfill our daily duties; we live our respective roles in life. Still, in the process, we tend to forget some important people and things. It's not difficult to identify what is pointed over here. After reading the previous line, many of you would say "of course I' am concerned and I do take care of the environment." This makes us bear the consequences of not being eco-friendly. This is important because only we "the human beings" have the duty to take care of our environment, no aliens would arrive from Mars or Venus to take care of this planet

The tree is the key to a pollution-free environment for a long time because they are responsible for providing oxygen, improving the quality of air, climate amelioration, conserving water, soil preservation, and supporting wildlife. Due to all these reasons, tree plantation has become necessary in the present scenario as pollution is at a peak. Tree plantation is the only way to control pollution to some extent. Plant a tree. Trees provide food and oxygen. They help save energy, clean the air, and help combat climate change.

The more the number of trees are planted, the cleaner the air will get. Having enough oxygen and reduced CO2 would make the air clean and free from pollutants. 

Wastes are materials that can be recycled on a regular basis. But because of our ignorance, a lot of waste gets dumped in landfills and pollution hits the planet finally. Only if we start creating awareness and take self responsibility we can clean our environment. For this, we have to learn to segregate our wastes on a daily basis. It is quite important to separate plastic wastes from bio degradable wastes. Plastic wastes should be totally separated from natural wastes. Plastic wastes do not decay like biodegradable wastes. Instead they take many years to breakdown even after which it is dangerous. On the other side, we cannot destroy plastic wastes by burning. Plastic wastes emit poisonous smokes when they are burnt. So, it is high time we avoid using synthetic materials. If not, we should try to segregate wastes and help in lessening the pollution level in our environment.

Most often wastes are taken for recycling. But for the same, the wastes need to bio degradable. Biodegradable wastes are the wastes that include fruit peels, animal waste, egg shells and other such materials that breakdown easily when put in contact with the soil. But, what people do is littering Here and there and mixing all wastes in the bin. The problem starts when we put plastic bottles, plastic bags and other non bio degradable wastes along with the natural wastes.

Waste segregation is important not only to reduce the impact it has on the environment, but also health issues that can arise from waste and toxins that have been improperly disposed of. Waste segregation is also an economically beneficial prospect because it makes recycling much easier.

Clean up Drive ‘. The first thing that comes up to my mind is a group of people helping each other cleaning on a specific area. On March 01, 2013 we conducted a clean up drive at the brgy. calumpang general santos city. It was pretty amazing and a wonderful experienced. I’m very happy, proud, and thankful. It’s because not only I was present at that time, I was with my classmate and make bonding with each other. But because its the effort that in my little own way I helped to protect and beautify our Mother Earth. It’s a tireful day but its fulfilling.
