It is really heart breaking to
see how much of a mess and damage we have caused and are continuing to do to
our planet – Mother Earth.
‘Plastic Pollution’ is taking over and is our biggest
crime. But what can we do? We are so
deep into it that it seems impossible to climb out. We are surrounded by plastic: - keyboards,
cell phones, grocery bags, water and cool drink bottles, food containers,
shoes, hair accessories etc. We so deep
into it that we have even created plastic green grass/lawn and trees!!!
It seems like we are trying to convert nature – all that is
pure to plastic – all that is damaging and unhealthy. Are we not fooling ourselves…we are becoming
plastic – Non- biodegradable! We don’t
realise how much “plastic” has become part of our lives and how much we depend
on its use until you stop and take stock… shocking!!!
Sad to say my family and I have also been major contributors
as well, we are sooo deep into it ourselves I wondered how to begin to make
this change, then I realised…one step at a time…So my New Year’s Resolution for
this year was; ‘Say “No” to plastic
bags/packets’, for starters. Must say it has not been so easy getting the family to
remember to take the cloth bags with them when they went out shopping or to
even use them, but slowly I see they are getting the hang of it.
Wouldn’t it be wonderful if we could all just say, “No” to
plastic bags/packets, for now…Step One!
Anyway that was me having my say…please have a look at www.mother-nature-blog.com and share with your friends, if you likeJ.
Lots of love and please let’s say “No” to plastic bags/packets…
