The standard of living has been raised by development and at the same time led to top serious
environmental disaster. Hence it is always wise to maintain a relationship between our needs
and supplies so that the ecological balance is not disturbed. Hence the main goal of many
environment groups today is to increase awareness because that is the only way to develop a
more sustainable world.
We can help the environment to be maintained in a number a ways. This will make huge
difference and put something back into the environment why don’t we start with:
• Planting trees wherever possible
• Use energy saving light bulbs
• Recycling centres in area can be located
• Switchoff the lights and all electronic items when not in use.
• Don’t use car or more petrol consuming vehicles to travel for short distance instead use
cycle or walk.
• Travel by air only when needed.
• Get a compost bin or wormery.
• Discuss with others the issues relating to our environment
• Basically everybody need to remember the ‘3 R’s’ – Reduce, Reuse, Recyle.
