The earth is dying and we all know that we are responsible for this. So, i decided a long time ago that i will try to prolong the life on the earth. There are few things i do, for instance, i always use public transport rather than going in a car, i discourage plastic bags, i prefer electric cars. and want to do more. can someone plz suggest how can we make difference?

Hey! the same things going on my mind lately. Even i prefer using public transport and you know, anything you do for the environment adds to alot, so i pay attention to every little thing i can do to make a difference and advice the same to my family members. I'm trying to convince my dad in planting a few trees in the boundaries of the free hold estate he owns. I make my own paper bags and save as much as electricity i can, i don't use shower, i use bucket water instead and theres alot more we can do. Look over internet, you'll find blogs suggesting on ways to save our environment. Try to spread the awareness regarding our environmental issues between your family members and friends and insist them to spread the word and lil by lil we can save alot.

Also, avoid using cfl lights as the main source of light. It may be known for saving electricity but is causing a very dangerous kind of pollution, electrical pollution(dust pollution). So you're doing great thing, keep it up!!!!!!

We can make a difference through our own little ways. Example by just throwing our garbage in a right place. Keeping our surroundings clean, conserve water and a lot more. This are just simple things to do yet some people don't do it. It's your choice and the sooner we make a difference, earth will be a more better place to live. :)

First of all I would like to thank you and all who want to make the Earth a better place to live with the nice efforts. There are many people who can only talk about the nice thing but don't do a nice thing like what you do and want to do more. There are many eco-friendly ways which we can practice in our daily life. Some of them are using electricity judiciously,planting trees,using eco-friendly materials,saving fossil fuels and using renewable sources of energy,etc.

Making a difference means you do things not done by others or not done properly. This inspires others also to work on newer fronts and so creates more opportunities for the whole humanity. The person making the difference is well recognized by the society and is rewarded as a pioneer.
