Many of you have heard the famous 2 words: Global Warming ... What does this mean? Global warming is an action and a moment in time where our atmospheric temperature is rising due to the concentration of heat, by heat unable to leave the atmosphere. Our planet is surrounded by an invisible shield made up of different gases that allow the planet to receive and send heat waves in and out of our planet. This whole system is regulated by our own planet. Due to the constant pollution in our planet, the emissions of CO2 gases and toxic chemicals emitted by pharmaceutical, texture and petroleum industries. All of the man made pollution in our planet can be prevented. back in the 50's this would have never been predicted, yet now thanks to the creation and expansion of Green Chemistry and Sustainable design we can limit or prevent the emission of toxic chemicals into our environment.
How does this affect me ? Well all of these toxic chemicals being excreted our being concentrated in our atmosphere and in our air. Our AIR, one of the most vital elements, oxygen. OXYGEN, is being replaced by these poisons. These toxins are inhaled by all of our population and concentrated into our biological system. Most of these chemicals either have adverse effects on our systems our they HAVEN'T EVEN BEEN TESTED to check for any interactions.
This is alarming ... As a biology student I believe we must always check human interactions considering we are the ones using it and producing it ... And to add to all of this we arent the only ones in this planet nor the only ones affected. Plants and Animals are also affected by this phenomenon. Agricultural crops are being affected. There growth has been affected and due to the contamination of soils, all of these contaminants that our in our atmosphere eventually get brought down to the earth by rain. Our food animal supply eat from these plants and therefore they also get a shot of the contaminants into there system. ... So ... We are being contaminated not just by the air that we breathe but also by the food that we eat.
Amazing... what can we do, in these world full of dangers ... do we wait ? do we .. change ?
Well we need to stand up and make a change. Take back our government and its regulatory affairs. After all we are the ones that make the economy go round by slaving our self at the office,lab,building etc... If we are going to slave ourselves at work to pay for the stuff that we eat it should be healthy and safe !!!
Environmental change is real and its already here. Let's start making a change by using safe products which are free of toxic chemicals. We need to reduce our consumption of unnecessary materials which only end up in the dumpster. Boycott companies that use unsafe methods of production and who don't have a method off sustainable line production. Adopt a more vegetable based diet, considering the animal industry produces the biggest amount of CO2 into the atmosphere. Small everyday changes make a huge difference in how the world turns. So let's all get together and make a change.
Let's take Control of Our Life and of Our Planet !!!
