I know it can be hard to make change, but it needs to be done. The
world is warming at rapid and terrifying rates. Something needs to be
done, and since it was not done at Copenhagen, it needs to be done
elsewhere. This means starting at home. Unplugging cell phone
chargers, turning off lights, and shorter showers. It means choosing
to be environmentally aware instead of self-involved. Choosing to buy
a honda civic instead of an SUV, choosing to bike or walk, or take
public transportation, instead of driving. Within one's community, he
or she can start making a difference. No matter how small, every part
counts. Just like the three college kids who went to Uganda, they were
miniscule in comparison to what is going on, but now they have been
able to make a major difference, simply because of their actions,
which started with small steps. Mayors and anyone in public office
needs to start taking more action, such as President Obama. People
need to change. People need to realize what is going on. People need
to pressure those in power. Eventually, with enough support, no-one
can resist working towards change and changing failed policies. I
would like to see that happen now.
