Please Go Green

This afternoon I read a magazine article about how important it is for us, the new generation, to ‘go green’. It mentioned several importance of being more environmentally friendly in this new age.

Every day human being uses up a vast amount of energy-producing products. Sometimes we use more than what we actually need and this is not green. We should now use fuel with a smarter and greener manner like some ‘world idols’ , for example, President Barack Obama has just bought a car called ‘hybrid car’, it is a new type of energy-saving car. Mr. Obama is really a trendy icon, right?

Hybrid cars are not for non-drivers like me, but of course there are many ways to be green to conserve the world. There was a world-wide program last month urging people in the world to turn off lights for 60 minutes to promote the ‘go greener’ idea. I think this is a really effective program, and more programs like this should be held in the coming future.

Recycling and reusing plastic bags would definitely do well to planet Earth. Sometimes we just buy very little things from store, there’s no point and not green for us to get a big plastic bag and throw it away immediate after using it once. Please reuse, reduce and recycle.

There are many important things and matters that we would like to mark down every day. We use up loads of papers EVERY DAY! So whenever we use a sheet of paper, please think and try to use both sides of it. When doing wrappings for gifts, also use less wrapping papers. Be green! These save the world, and save your purse!

Many people and corporations have a habit of posting cards to friends and clients during festival times. Paper cards can be very sweet, but they are not green. Now we have a better choice, we can send e-cards to our friends and clients in a vast amount and can still be ‘very green’.

Think that e-cards are not sweet enough? No worry, you can now draw your OWN free e-cards and DIY them for your friends and suit your needs! These DIY cards can be as sweet as paper cards, and you can develop your own design talents and at the same time, be GREEN!

Mother Earth is OUR Earth, if you don’t want to make your sons and daughters suffer from the unnecessary waste you create, please think thrice before you use everything in the world. Be smart, be green.
