I thought this was a real creative and cool way to help earth.

Breathing Earth

One of the most interesting Environmental Awareness website i’ve seen. OMO ( On Mouse Over ) on selected countries gives you respective Carbon Dioxide ( CO2 ) emission rate. The Birth and Death rate is fine…but the Carbon Dioxide emission rate is a shocker.

Environmental Issues have plagued humanity since the Industrial Age. Alright, its fine, industrialization etc is needed…but, now when you know it is costing you Earth, why aren’t drastic measures being taken. Why so slow ? Why ? Nothing but GREED, SELFISHNESS and EGO.

Tonnes of research is published etc etc etc, but its all No Action Talk Only (NATO). I mean there is some hu-haa here and there…but nothing drastic. Conference after conference, trying to convince governments. What nonsense? I totally blame our leaders, you know those politicians that came into power because of us. Come on, this is your only home, don’t you see…how foolish can you be. CALL FOR DRASTIC MEASURES !

To all the nations in the world, my message to you :

” FOR OUR SAKE, HAVE SOME SENSE AND NOT MERELY COLLECT CENTS “.

Money will never be able to purchase another Earth from the Universe. Sometimes the simplest of truths are the most difficult to accept. What to do ?
