At first, no one was talking about it. I thought that if people knew about it, there will be action towards putting the fires down. Now everybody is talking about it, yet almost still no action.
We have an amazing Planet, and we are destroying it. I wonder if others do the same with their planets.
This is the place we live in. This is Home. There is no other Home that we have. Everything else is an illusion. The place you go to every night, the one you call HOME, that one exists solely because you have that small place on this planet. That is the only reason. The real home is Earth.
I wish people could understand that Earth is the reason you are breathing. The reason you can have a family, the reason you are able to hear your children's laugh, and see your parent's smile. The reason you have a job, and you can walk to it. The reason you see birds, and the beautiful sky, and why you can touch the water. Earth is the reason you are YOU.
Saturn, Mars, Uranus ... none of the other planets have trees, and forests. Can you live on any of them? Can you breath on any of them? For how long? For as long as your tank supply holds you.
We have this amazing planet, placed in the perfect position from Sun, and all the other planets, at a perfect distance from asteroids and any other things from space that could harm us, or destroy us, and we are destroying it all by ourselves. For what? Make more food and raise more animals to sacrifice? I am all for having enough food for everyone, but do you know how much of that food ends up in the garbage? How much food did you throw on the garbage this week? Or last week? Or last month? Or in your entire life?
There is enough space to cultivate more than enough food for everyone, if the consumption of it would be done responsibly. And I am referring here at cereals as well as animals.
The Seas are exploited at a crazy pace, without any consideration for the fact that we are taking more than we need, destroying the ecosystem, and getting species on the verge of extinction. Not talking about the ones that are already extincted.
Think about the animals that live in the Amazon forest. They are dying. Through fire. I am not going to depict here how horrific that is, but if you ever heard a news about that, than you understand it. Those animals have no place to go. Where will they run? Where will they hide? There is fire everywhere. If their home is burning down, if every place of their house is on fire, where can they hide?
The president of Brazil is refusing help. He says that nothing comes for free. Maybe. I don't know. But would the cost of that help be greater than the cost we are already paying? And the cost that we will pay when that forest will burn more and more into the grounds and we choke on our own planet? Would that price be smaller or higher?
It's just one forest, some might say, and it is not all burning down. Maybe. But it is not the only forest that is burning, or that is cut down to make space for other things. Not understanding that those things will only last a short while, because once we destroy everything keeping us alive ... well ... there won't be anything to keep us alive.
This is not something that you can fix back in a month or two. If the ecosystem breaks, it will take tens of years, hundreds of years, or even more, to get it back together. Every bad action towards Earth takes less time to apply, than any good action takes to repair.
You can cut down a tree in a few minutes, but you can't make one grow to that size in a few minutes. It takes years. Hundred of years if the tree was that old.
Think about it. Really understand it. Earth is the reason YOU exist. If it weren't for Earth, you wouldn't be here. If you don't save it now when it needs you, you might not have a home tomorrow. Not in a thousand years, not in a hundred years. REMEMBER!!! Destruction takes seconds, building takes years. So, YES, tomorrow can be your last day, even if you wake up to a sunny, beautiful morning.
If you love having a home, if you love being able to breath freely, go to the movies, watch your children play, being able to call your parents, being able to take a vacation, or sip a coffee on a terrace, take care of your HOME. Love it. Cause SHE definitely loves you ❤.
If this helped you in any way, you can donate a little something to help
