how people in singapore are doing their own part to save the environment :D

Hi hi!
I am going to describe to you guys about (as mentioned in the title) how people in Singapore are doing their part to save the environment that we live in, which is planet Earth.

Firstly, to start of, I feel that the Earth is fragile. Why do i say so? The Earth that you people walk on each and everyday of your life is not something that God accidentally created or cracked open. It has been around for hundreds of millions of decades and will definitely go on for hundreds of thousands of millenium after you die. THAT is, if we take good care of Mother Earth, our homeland. In my opinion, Earth is like a a piece of rock. And you would not be able to crack the rock by just squeezing it with however much strength you exert. But if you hit this piece of stubborn rock with a hammer everyday constantly, things might change. Maybe, a person hitting the rock daily will not do that much of a change. However, if a thousand people hit it daily without fail, a colossal change would definitely take place and the rock would be smashed into smithereens. This is the effect and process of how people harm the Earth.

Everyday, for decades, people have been driving cars conveniently on expressways all around the world. a little amount of harmful gases are released by each car everyday and nobody notices that it will harm the environment in future. This carries on for generations. Soon, scientist discovered that there is a hole in the atmosphere and we have got to do something about it.

People in Singapore are trying their best to save the environment. Some creates and hold workshops, teaching citizens how they can help in this 'long-term' process. Posters had been put up all around Singpaore, be it along Singapore rivier, pinned up at Housing Developement Boards notice boards and even along the streets at Orchird Road. Mant Megastores and Hypermarkets have been advising their customers to use recycle bags instead of plastic bags to carry their grceries. This is because plastic bags are not biodegardable and when burned, they will too release harmful gases. To a certain extent, some of the stores even give away free recycle bags! The singapore government has given many talks and speeches on the topic of 'saving the environment' and informing citizens the importance of it. Singapore has also been planting more plants, trees and greeneries everywhere.

So, i will encourage you guys to start saving the Earth with the above suggestions(if you have not been doing them). You can also comment on this post if you have any other suggestions on how to save Mother Earth.

Remember, your little actions would make a HUGE difference.
