Goodbye, pollution. Hello, Cleaner Earth

As the world goes on, technology became better for each day of our life. It's a good thing, compared to the world before. But as it evolves, many consequences and differences came. One thing that is bad on the technology today is called the "pollution". It is very harmful to all organisms, especially us humans. Since this is the only Earth that we can live on, let us do our best to save it from its destruction.

There is no voice more comforting than our mother. In the womb we are suspended in safe warmth, hearing every noise that our mother makes. We feel its vibrations, its muffled hum, through our ears and our entire forming bodies. Yet, what of the mother who cannot speak? Can she still comfort her baby? Yes, because it is much more than vocal chords that connect a baby with its birth mother. Mother is trying to do her best to raise up her baby.

It's the same thing with our planet Earth which is our only mother that we can live on. But what if we don't know that we are starting to "kill" mother. Mother started to have sickness. We are not doing anything to help her alleviate the situation. So let us all start by doing a very simple yet, very important task to save mother. Let us think "globally". Example, we are fond of throwing trashes anywhere. If we think "globally", we would prefer not to throw it anywhere. You will think of like this:

Thinking Locally - "It doesn't matter if I throw this candy wrapper since I am the only one who will throw it here."

Thinking Globally - "I see some candy wrappers scattered in here. Better throw it in the garbage can to help save Mother Earth."

“Forget not that the earth delights to feel your bare feet and the wind longs to play with your hair.”
-The Prophet, by Kahlil Gibran
