Should money be spent excavating the lithosphere to search for ore minerals or would the money be better spent in promoting solar power consumption? Should a mountainous forest underwent slash and burn to extract farming cultivation, or would the forest best left alone for other organisms to flourish? Should fishermen practice Muro-Ami in catching more fish to feed their family for survival, or is it good not to disturb the aquatic animals anymore? These are just some eye-openers but no matter how you feel about these issues, you need to be aware of how man-made activities change the world around you.

We fill our needs by using our natural resources. These natural resources are taken from the world around us. Every action is taken, whether it is a fisherman pounding the corals to catch more fish or a farmer soaking himself under the scorching heat of the sun to deforest the mountain for farming, will adversely affect the living of mankind.

Inevitably, Mother Earth become overpopulated with inexhaustible changes as she reaches the 21st Century in sustaining the needs and wants of the humanity. Changes that lead her to great chagrin and wrath. The two major environmental realities that pose global awareness due to its act of murdering our planet are global warming and climate change.

The ozone layer is completely damaged, the ice caps and glaciers are gradually melting, the mountains are totally denuded and the rivers are extremely polluted. All these happened and will continue to happen due to the emergence level of carbon footprints.

The rapidly increasing atmospheric temperature mainly resulting from the industrialization processes that extremely threatens the physical landscape of the Earth and its severe human living disruption. It is very alarming that our planet might sink because of the rise in sea levels and might experience paranoia due to its abnormal changes in climatic patterns manifested in the tantamount incident of extreme weather events.

The problem was serious enough that years ago, world leaders and environmentalists came up to an international agreement namely United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change and the Kyoto Protocol.

However, nothing has changed and seems that everything is falling apart. Humans keep on doing abusive activities in nature despite knowing the effects of their actions. We can’t deny the fact that as a man take a small or giant leap towards globalization; he becomes an excellent contributor of the dangerous anthropogenic interferences within our climate system.

Excavating the abyss to search for something in stabilizing sustainable development will yield nothing if the only planet that supports life will be destroyed.

As the agents of innovation and stewards of nature, we can do something to help planet Earth revive its splendor beauty. The change starts within ourselves before we can persuade others to do the same.
