Greetings, my dear readers...!

The deterioration of planet Earth has always been a topic of continuous discussion worldwide and therefore the search for possible and viable solutions has been on many occasions the initial topics of discussion at the various summits that discuss topics of this nature, with which it has been possible to demonstrate a certain percentage of progress towards the care of the planet, but unfortunately it is still not enough.

This progress is minor in comparison with the damage that our beloved planet suffers every day with the different economic and social activities that we carry out against it, so it is necessary to continue bringing this issue to the discussion table in the different opportunities that arise.

In this sense, love for our planet should be a matter of global interest, but the reality is different, since with the passing of time it has become evident the continuous damage that the improper use of the earth's resources has brought as a consequence to the ecosystem, causing an alteration in it.

However, What can each of us do to take care of the planet?

The solution has always been in each one of us, it is just that it is hard for us to get out of this comfort zone in which we find ourselves. From my point of view, educating and training our children in the care and protection of the planet is very rewarding, taking into account that they represent the next generation and who will directly suffer the results of each of the actions that are being done in the present.

In this sense, we must begin by explaining to our children about all the benefits we obtain from our mother earth and, based on this premise, we must indicate that in order to continue enjoying all these resources, it is necessary to implement an intensive and permanent care of them, so that they do not run out and the next generations will be able to enjoy these resources.

Something that is very important throughout our lives is the sustainability of ecosystems, which consists of making a rational and conscientious use of each of the resources that the planet earth provides us, so that in the future we can enjoy them.

This is commonly mistaken for limiting the benefits of the planet, without taking into account that they can be taken advantage of by everyone as long as we do it in a balanced way.

One of the main actions that can be implemented in this constant struggle is to economize the use of water in our homes, not to vote garbage on the ground, avoid burning solid waste and on the contrary to make use of the 3R (reduce, recycle and reuse), since with them we are indirectly reducing the large-scale production of garbage, which is one of the main causes of ecological imbalance today and that derives many factors in chain.

Make conscientious use of the electric service, plant trees and therefore avoid the indiscriminate cutting of vegetation. We must keep in mind that trees, besides beautifying nature, also provide us with a great benefit such as the oxygen that we breathe every day and that is so indispensable for the life of all living beings.

Encouraging ecological planting and cultivation of different crops, is a very interesting strategy in the care of our soils and the environment in general, as these in addition to benefit you economically will allow you to absorb the heat product of high ambient temperatures and helps you to put into practice the 3Rs of recycling.

It is important to point out that for many people these alternatives may be just one of many, since they have been proposed on different occasions, but in fact, how many of us have actually implemented them?

As I said at the beginning, one of the main solutions to environmental pollution is in the hands of every mother, father or person in general, the call is to be empathetic with this great problem that affects us mainly at the level of health and socially, so we must stop putting the solutions on paper and pencil or that only remain in the air and start the implementation of obvious actions, which also serve as an example in the community where you live and that eventually can spread to other places.

From my perspective, this would be a great strategy to follow to show in a simple and effective way how grateful we are to nature for the great benefits it brings us every day and above all for sheltering us in it without receiving anything in return.

Let's remember that as people we are part of a society that is governed by great stereotypes and in this same way we can spread the good actions that are proposed and carried out for the care of our mother earth, the solution starts with yourself.




Sort:  

We are supposed to be greatly concerned about our love for our planet but human activities seem to revolve around its destruction consistently, there has to be a call to save the planet for the sake of those who would come long after we are gone.

Hi @bimbo45, the main problem is that as human beings we are always in our sense of survival, so in this work we are continuously destroying our beloved planet and in the case of doing something for its conservation, it is not equitable to the global damage.
