On Blog Action Day: today let's talk about environment, this is dedicated to environment awarness campaign. (warning: my english wasn't good all so beware of some broken languages and some grammar garbage...hey at least i can spread a meaningfull and understandable messages right?)
Have you guys realised how bad our environment have gone through. This year mankind is going to taste their own medicine. Gloomy sky, unatural weather phenomenon, sea level rises, people died because unpredictable flood storm, typhoon, hurricane, extreme dry seasons, landslides and forest fires. Actually there's more than that but just wake up and go outside and smell it. Read the news on tv, internet, radios and around you, weather changes dramatically.. 5 years ago news highlights on terror, wars, crimes and political unrest. This year 2007, its different..unatural weather kills people. Why? industial pollution, waste and smogs increase earth tempreature causing ice pole melts and atmospheric weather to expands at uncontrollable rate pushing the air and wind spinning around like mad.
Industrial and commercialisation pushing our environment to the edge of disaster:
Here is a simple equation-
People getting richer >> they afford to buy car (thermal and air pollution) >> need more fast foods (waste/material pollution) >> more food more factory to process products (industrial waste/thermal pollution, chemical threats) >> then more labour to work on the products (over population/urban development and land clearing) >> need more raw material and resources to produce products (chopping woods/logging/clearing for agriculture/animal hunting) = when all consume they produce waste.
People create waste and dump waste after comsumption..these are not ordinary waste we're talking about, these are plastics, metals, zinc, CFC, carbons, chemical, radiation and other dangerous substances.
I'm telling you, my sister who works in a hospital..cancer patient increase steadly, respiration/breathing problem, skin cancer and things you do not want to know about....trust me its..ewwww!!!..
I'm a bicyclist, a mountain biker who enjoy riding up into the mountains, green hills, beautiful forest and enjoy anything that nature have to offer under bright blue sky. Through my eyes after cycling into the forest mountain for 17 years i witness a dramatic degradation of forest and natural resources in our tropical
forest and everthing that are green around my surrounding began to dissappear robbed in the name of human development and commercial progress.Sometimes i really hate people chop off trees, woods and clear the land! Mountain biking have no adventure at all on bald yellow soil! We need trees, rocks, clean waters and chripping birds to fill in the scene... but now the place looks like some alien nuked the forest into big bowl of comets craters! ...sometimes along the way i can see local forest folks yammering and walking around protesting the loggers and developer from entering the forest.
Forest clearing for development....consequences the animals loses habitat...loses source of food and place where the should call home..chain of food pyramid broken. Very often i see animal started to invade urban spaces in every corner of the city and even homes seeking food, shelter and places in hope to survive. The places which was once and humble crowded happy forest already turn into concrete parking lots, buildings and commercial centers. I've saw exotics birds like Hornbills birds, Armadillos, monkeys and other extinct species roaming around the town looking for foods and seeking shelters in mans world. Some even attacked people because they need to survive and space to live. Reports on news about animal attack people become more frequent which was rare to be heard of a few years back. I've even saw a video clip from www.Youtube.com about seagull started to steal snack food from grocery stores daily!
Everytime i woke up in the morning there are at least 40% chances you're going to see bright blue sky in mid year. Others are 60% would be smog, gloomy weather, typhoon or storm floods. That's really spoil my riding days! Sunset always turn
out to be dark yellow, contrast orange and sky always dark grey even during dry seasons. Did i say dry seasons?....you guys should see how dry seasons looks like in tropical forest in Borneo, ..no clouds, blue sky and the tempreature can boil and egg. This year if i go out cycling fo an hour i'll get tanned so easily it'll take years to scurb those burn off my skin.At night news about floods in China, India, America and even at my local home, people swept away from fast water current, yup! you guess it people died and some loses home! Hurricane, typhoon and thunderstorm from east side and west side of the world...yup! people died again and wipe out entire cities!. Land slides in Indonesia, Latin America and other parts of the world..again people died and made homeless...buried for good. Extreme dry spell, heat and extreme winter seasons.....again people died of heat or frozen to death. What all these have in common? Read the news between 2006 and 2007. What? it all happen in a same year at short interval! Mother nature at work!? What triggers such extreme changes in weather phenomenon.
You still remember what Mr. Al Gore wa talking about on TV....polar ice, north/south pole and stuff? Most people took it nonsense and all it was about getting attention for next election with political motive...i was thinking about that too..... A month later after hurricane, typhoon, floods and dry spell hit the world in one slam, people start to wake up and smell the anguish of mother nature, yup he was right all along. Go GoogleMap! check places around the world, earth getting balder!, smogs over China and less ice on north and south pole!
There's a delima between stopping the commercialization and saving earth from polution:
1. IF >> Stop commericalisation/development/natural resources and save the environment = poor nation/economy breakdown + unemployment + public chaos + political chaos
or
2. IF >> Continue rob the forest and run industrial revolution = rich nation + economic stability + happy people + employment + political stability + electic power....
OMG! how? how? how were going to balance both man and nature???!
