Chant In Unison With Dilated Pupils: ‘eco-cult, Eco-cult, Eco-cult….’
By Mohammed Walji
With $20 billion per annum in public funding the modern earth cult can easily spend some nickels to attract cult members. I can well imagine that soon, on prime time TV, [or a gay sitcom], will be Read more...

Welcome
to Our-Environment.org
To the
Our-Environment.Org website.
We believe the best way to help solve the environmental problems we all
face
today is through building public awareness and increasing understanding
of the environmental
issues we all face.
Though
the voice to preserve and maintain
our environment is getting louder with more and more people starting to
pay
attention, we cannot rest on our laurels; we still need to keep working
towards
raising the global consciousness about our environment even further and
eventually
high enough for the tide to turn on the destructive practises we
see around us every
day.
Our Problem
It
has taken generations of human progress for
us to see our environment getting to the stage were nature can no
longer cope
with the escalating production of the toxins that drive human
advancement, pollutants
and green house gases like carbon dioxide, methane, nitrous oxide, and
ozone
are being produced faster than they can be naturally absorbed.
 |
The majority of
greenhouse
gases
come
mostly from natural sources though our contribution (i.e. human
activity and
progress) has started to tip the balance. Production of “Greenhouse
Gases” has increased
to the stage that the planet can no longer sustain itself and the Earth
is in
real terms losing the fight. Millions of years ago the Earth was dominated
by these gases, though over the eons
these compounds have been
sequestered into substances like oil, natural gas and coal.
|
The human race over the past
hundred plus
years has become expert at re-releasing these compounds back into the
atmosphere through industry and feeding our swelling hunger for energy and we
are now seeing dramatic climate change as the alarming consequence of this activity.
Of
course we cannot go back to some
pre-industrial stage of our history to find the answer, technology is
the
double
edged blade that
has catapulted us into this situation and technology
will provide the way to meet and (hopefully) eventually overcome this
challenge.
This does not mean however we
as
individuals do not have to do our bit. We must all look at the
consequences of what we do every day; turn off the lights when we are
not in the room, power down our computers when we are not sitting on
front of them, turn off the TV rather than sit mesmerised in front of
it for hours on end and walk to the store instead of cranking up the
car. It is the some total of all the little things we do every day that
can have the biggest impact on the problem facing us and our
environment.
This remedy will not happen overnight, it may
well take a generation to undo the damage already caused. The important
things is build momentum, we have to help wake peoples awareness to
what we can all do together to help, and even more importantly what we
can do as individuals right now.
