In our day to day lives, we often don't realize how much of an impact we have on our environment and the heavy burden we contribute to earth's desecration and destruction.

Below is a short video that shows one result of society's unthinking disregard for our home, our only home.
I suggest we think next time BEFORE we buy and discard a plastic container. http://www.nextworldtv.com gives us more ideas on how to take care of the earth. Good information each and every time I receive their notice. Here is their latest offering.

It is always amazing to me how thoughtless we as a people can be... All we care about, it seems, is convenience to ourselves, no matter the cost to other people or creatures. I have often wondered what it would be like if the world could magically gather everything each of us just tossed and would dump every one's own crap in their yards (or living rooms). Afterall that is what we are doing to ourselves in a way.
I fear for our planet's future. I fear for humanity and its lack of concern for the problems we are creating. If only each would change one bad habit, all together it may make a huge positive imprint. Words seem useless; it takes action to make a difference.
The pictures cause me to sorrow. Yes, we need a magical idea, for common sense has went the way of the wind. The game is Self Satisfaction and the devil take the hindquarters! Mankind as a whole is a fat ego.
