Help the Earth with small acts
Everyone can help make our planet a better place to live, but we have to start from ourselves first. Nowadays, we have machines who do everything for us (cooking, cleaning, washing…) and people are used to that. I'm not saying the machines are bad for us and can't help the environment because most of the products are made to save electricity or water. But I think we can all agree that we all have become slaves of technology.
Instead of spending your day on your laptop, phone or watching TV, go out and enjoy nature with your friends. There are a lot of beautiful places all over the world. Also, when you meet your friends, skip the Cafe and go to a playground or take a walk.
When you're done using the laprop, turn it off. When you dont need light, turn it off. Don't leave your TV on all the time, if you're not watching it, turn it off.
This is just some small things we can do for our planet and for ourselves, but it's a start.
I think that with the new discoveries in technology everyday, people can get lost in the screen to a point where they can't think of doing anything else but use their devices. I agree with you technology and machines have greatly benefited us, but with all this power comes responsibility. We need to decrease the time we spend on digital things and not abuse it.
