Environment

With the pass of the years we have evolved or developed in different aspects, and this drove us to the solution some problems related to health, transportation and science; In addition, some of the new inventions are just for make our lives easier. But, with this advances people have created a mentality of "create something new and throw the old thing" and consequently we are polluting what we call "our home" that is the environment, and the only ones who suffer with this problem are humans, because we are the cause and also are the solution; so what people can do to help the environment is: recycle, reducing the consume of water and energy, and making awareness campaigns.

To begin, the recycle is a very good way to help the environment, it is a process to change materials or waste into new products, it is good for the environment because it helps in many ways as: prevent waste of potentially useful materials, reduce the consumption of fresh raw materials, reduce energy usage, reduce air pollution from incineration and water pollution from landfilling by reducing the need for "conventional" waste disposal, and lower greenhouse gas emissions as compared to plastic production. Furthermore, this solution can be applied by people of all ages because is something easy to do, and it needs to become a daily task in all houses.

Another way in which we can help the environment is by reducing the consumption of water and energy, because everyday some people forget to turn off the lights when they left the room, leave electronic devices that they are not using connected or sometimes there are families in which there is a TV on each room and all the members are watching the same program but in different televisions, and about the lost of water: people left the taps wrong closed, leave the tap open while they are brushing their teeth and there are many other little activities that consume energy needlessly. So, if we join all this little activities and multiply it by the number of people in the world, the consumption is enormous, so people have to be more cautious in their houses and they can help: using reusable batteries, turning off the devices that they are not using, closing the tap when it is not necessary and there are many others activities that can be helpful.

And the last and most important solution are the awareness campaigns, because with that we are attacking the cause of the problem that are the mentalities of the people. In other words, we can help the environment with campaigns and programs to make people understand that is important to keep clean the environment because that is the real cause of the problem and also because we are the solution to eliminate what exists of the problem right now. So, with campaigns we can change people´s mentalities and they would spread the idea.
