Earth Thought in the Morning

I have just read a news article about Harrison Ford speaking to the UN about Earth being at its Tipping Point. I guess the main reason is that majority of us “earthlings” do not care as much as we should about Mother Earth.

We have become either to greedy for money that we neglect to assess the harm we do to the environment. Or perhaps, we think there’s too much of it to even bother.

At some point, we think the trash we throw will not cost us anything anyway, like the butt of cigarette we indifferently throw on the street, the plastic stuff we do not recycle, and this could go on all day.

We allow illegal fishing and deforestation out of greed. It’s sad that the common people are aware of this but still don’t care. Or at least doesn’t have the urgency to act on it. It’s useless to wait for other people to do it, we must in our own way act on keeping this earth safe for us and for the future generation.

We are just a tiny speck compared to the immense size of this planet but if we act together we just might save millions.
