I'm concerned with everything my eyes sees. I want to save our environment. Whenever i get a chance to walk. I will always try because I know smokes from vehicles causes greenhouse gases. I also used in recycling plastics and avoids burning it.

Jeiyah_12 thanks for your concern for the environment... It is kind of you to walk... and not just because it fights pollution. It also is good for you to be out in the air and good for the Earth to be walked on.

The stuff in the environment that I am mainly concerned with is noise and traffic in streets and certain hazards in water, on land, and in air. We need to work on getting pollution down and under control. There are certain laws that govern industries that the environment is protected. In order to learn more just simply go to www.epa.gov. OK? How about the Hudson River in Upstate New York? From Fort Edward down to Albany, that part of the river contains PCBs that were disposed of by the General Electric long time ago. Now they are starting the project of removing those chemicals out of the river by barges transported to the facility that will treat the sediments and transport them by rail to Texas for proper and safe disposal. In order to learn about this, just simply go to www.hudsondredging.com. Let me know what you think.

Thanks for sharing about what areas of the environment bother you most and also more about the Hudson River in Upstate New York. I had not known about the problems there. I am glad that they are finally cleaning it up. It is sad that the companies are so quick to pollute and so slow to clean it up and that they often only clean up their messes when they are forced by the government, based on the work of community action groups, to do so.
