Yesterday as i was riding my bicycle, a public utility vehicle passenger carelessly throw junk food wrappers along the road. This passenger did not think of the bad effect of his actions. We all have heard enough of this bad effects, of not disposing our waste properly; that sometime that wrappers might be clogging our drainage canals, contaminating rivers, seas, that may lead to the extinction of some marine animals. We all have enough chaos encountered this days; severe bad weather condition, more coastal flooding, more deadly virus affecting our health and global warming which is truly happening today. It is now the time to act, help and save mother Earth and mankind will be safe and secure! It is not too late to be part of the few who are truly aware of this problem, all we need is just a strong will and determination and a HELP that comes from above.

I'm really glad that you posted this. I don't litter, and I encourage my friends & family not to either... and yet I often forget about the Whys behind it... like the fact that litter can drain our drainage canals & ultimately cause the extinction of some animals. I learned this in environmental science years ago, but it's great that you reminded me about it. Thank you! :)

You are very welcome! That is why we should be more persevere in becoming an environmentalist. We should help promote to Reduce, Reuse, and Recycle all things around us.

Over the years the effects of poor waste management have been very evident with global warming vastly becoming a global phenomenon. We need to change our attitude towards waste management if we are to make any real impact. At this rate, future generations might have to move to another planet. Let’s take ownership of our planet; let’s change our bad habits when it comes to waste management.
