On top of that, we do lots of choice in doing such blissful
negligence. At home, burying waste to a composed pit will probably take decades
to degrade. It may fade out of our sights but it doesn't pop out of the
planet! It just been buried deep in landfills and backyards which erodes the
essentials of the earth’s façade.
If you prefer burning and incinerate these polystyrene
polymers at the back of your yard, this releases the so called styrene. Styrene
gas is probably absorbed through the skin and lungs that will cause respiratory
ailments. Since ashes and its smoke directly jam with the air, it’s a free for
all, to breathe in these hazardous chemicals. The ozone layer has already
retreating caused by this negligence.
Aside of that the nonstop cigarette smoking of our fellowmen
that even youngsters are already patronizing this coolers on stick. Out of mind, they
blatantly ignore the aftermaths of their almost every day pestering.
Smoking directly corrupts the atmosphere, land, water bodies, the ecological system as well as your very kind. The cigarette butts that are nastily dump end up in canals and streams which fishes mistake it as their food resulting to their death. The remaining cigar butts left in ground will take long journey as they roar nomadically.
Fortunately, Hope seems to be on our side. For Albayano’s,
the provincial regime sets Eco-Ordinance such as banning of smoking as well as
the plastic prohibition. There is a penalty and fine given corresponding to
their breach. Reusable Eco bags and paper hand bags is now being used as
replacement for plastic packaging in department stores.
Resolutions, the changes we all justify. We already come to
the realization that change starts within ourselves. The domino effect that
says of a single breakthroughs influence others to follow is a motivator to
keep us in doing something for a great change.
Lastly, we co- exist with the every living being, everyone is
affected of what we do. Value and appreciate our home planet, it is all that we
have!
