Mind-map It!: How To Save The Earth


‘”Sooner or later, we will have to recognise that the Earth has rights, too, to live without pollution. What mankind must know is that human beings cannot live without Mother Earth, but the planet can live without humans,” quoted by Evo Morales. We as humans must take responsibility of taking care of our Earth, our home. These are the ways which we can do to save our planet.

Avoid deforestation: One the ways is using coals. It requires hours to consume a few logs but takes years for a tree to fully grow. Therefore use coals instead of firewood in fireplace.

Carpooling/taxi-pooling: Save more, drive less. By this it actually reduce the usage of fossil fuels and CFCs (Chloro-floro Carbon) produced.

Save bees: No bees=no food

3Rs: Reduce, Reuse, Recycle. Examples are reducing usage of papers, reusing plastic bags for shopping and recycling newspaper.

Save Water: Use a cup when brushing teeth and collecting rainwater to water the plants.

Plant Trees: More oxygen to counteract the amount of carbon dioxide produced.

Save energy: Some of the examples are using staircase instead of elevator and using compact fluorescent bulbs.

Go technologized: Solar powered houses which convert sunlight into energy and also automated light bulbs so that it is switched off when not in use.
