MOTHER EARTH

WHAT IS MOTHER EARTH ?*The earth regarded as the source of all ani

mate and inanimate things.*The land or soil.*Because just like a baby needs its mother to

survive, we (and all life on Earth) need Mother Earth to be able to live, too. We also owe "her" that, since "she" gave us life and all that we need to sustain us. We protect the earth because she is the only planet that protects us and keeps us safe

POEM FOR MOTHER EARTHSave the flowers!Land, water and air,elements essential for our survival. Yet we are so gruesomely brutal,we treat them as if we just don't care.The air we breathe,from growing treesplanted by farmers for us to protect.

no cutting of trees and kaingin,to protect the ozone layerno to smoke belching to have fresh air. The water we drink from falls and springsgiven free from God for us to preserve.using a glass while brushing,using a basin while washing,cleaning faucets properlylet's conserve water regularly. Waste materials cannot be denied,toxic, hazard and a home waste.

garbage segregation must be observed,biodegradable and non-biodegradable. Mother earth is a gem,she's our only safe haven.We must not fill her lands with garbagethat house diseases and pests.We must not drown her with toxic watersthat seeps unhindered into the depths of the earth.

We must not mix her air with pollutantsthat would ultimately spell our demise.  Let's join our hands together,Muslim, Christians, Subanens to have a cleaner and brighter day.for the birds to fly and animals to playfor the children to grow healthyand to have a better world and better place to live.

PROTECTING MOTHER EARTH AND WONDERFUL CREATURES

Our planet is indeed gasping for breath right now, our harmful pollutions is indeed choking her slowly and continues to stripped her with her ozone layer. I think it is about time to give our timely response to this alarming state of the only planet we live in, by doing our own share of protecting her with doing simple things that will surely stir big difference.

For if not, we might be harming ourselves in the years ahead as well, for nature has its own destructive way of getting back at us humans, the signs of earth's displeasure with inappropriate and harmful activities of humans are now seen and felt all across the globe like the global warming, climate change, acid rain, drought, flash floods and other forms of natural catastrophes.

Here are some practical and small ways that could help our planet get a sigh of relief. Collective small efforts by those who are genuinely concerned with earth's welfare will inevitably help her by great leap and bounds.1. Don’t allow your children to free those colorful balloons in mid air. Teach your children not to release these balloons. For balloons that escaped the grasps of your children that will get into oceans and seas will be mistaken as yummy jellyfish by sea turtles.

Sea turtles are part of the delicate cycle and if their population is affected other species of marine creatures are also under threat.2. Reduce, Reuse and Recycle. Make it a habit to reduce the things we need or we consume. Purchase only things that we only need and eat only what you can. . Reuse all the things that can still be repaired/fixed or those things that are still okay.

Recycle things to conserve our resources,collect old newspapers,books,magazins, used papers, bottles (plastic and glass), and any other things that you could sell in junkyards. There is money in garbage and at the same time we’re doing our part in recycling process.3. Be kind to trees. As much as possible use forests products and timber very well with optimum efficiency.

You may use the back of coupons, use pencils until it become as small as possible, and don’t play with matches. Try to get involved in tree planting in your local conservation program. This could be fun as trees can give us added oxygen, shades for people and a refuge to different insects and birds.4. Broken scientific apparatus like thermometer, barometers, manometers, sphygmanometers, and float

valves and other things that have mercury on it should be disposed properly. Avoid throwing this in rivers for mercury is toxic and poisonous.

ENVIRONMENTAL-FRIENDLY ACTIVITIES TO SAVE MOTHER

EARTH

1. Don't throw away plastic or polythene pouches any and everywhere. Throw them in appropriate container marked as plastic disposables dustbin.

2. Don't waste too much water unnecessarily as bathing under shower for 10 minutes can waste up to 70 gallon of water, while we can bathe in 2 buckets of 20 liters.

3. Don't destroy the grass covering around your house completely. The insects and microorganisms will suffer. Also soil erosion will occur heavily in absence of grass.

4. Don't cut big trees around your house for letting in more sunlight. You can prune the branches. My neighbor has done that in the wintertime and is suffering the consequences in the summertime.

5. Don't drive too fast. It will lead to more fuel consumption. Also make sure that your vehicle does not pollute the environment.

6. Don't use inorganic fertilizers or pesticides in your garden and try to treat the plants by organic materials. This will maintain the soil fertility.

7. Don't drain any chemical or hazardous waste in municipal drainage system. It will harm the river organisms, as mostly these drainage waters are discharged in the rivers.

8. Make your friends and relatives aware of the environmental issues and spread the consciousness.

9. Stop smoking inside rooms.

10. Stop using deodorant sprays as much as possible. Don't extinguish stoves suddenly. It exerts huge CO2.

11. Don't lit fire in a close room.

LOVE OUR MOTHER EARTH

Environmental obstruction through deforestation, air, water and soil pollution and careless waste disposal are the issues confronting Mother Earth and these were brought to the fore inthe recent devastation wrought by typhoons Ondoy and Pepeng in the Philippines. So much talk and so much publicity, so many rallies and campaigns but so little has been done to help save Mother Earth.

Plastics and styro products produce poisonous fumes when burned. They are non-biodegradable or do not dis integrate or decompose even after a long time . "We must learn to reuse and recycle our garbage and dispose them through proper segregation," Guerrero suggest. "There is even money in recycling and segregating," she adds.

SAVE THE MOTHER FROME GLOBAL WARMING

The biggest challenge that mankind is facing in this century is "global warming" and there is a "global warning" given by scientist to save the earth.It has become a big cry from every corner of the world "How to save the earth from global warming", every nation, every forums, every where and in every thing they discuss about this global warming and how to save our earth from this biggest threat.

Scientists had laid down the root cause for this situation as the increase in the amount of carbon DI oxide let out on the atmosphere by our industries and automobiles. If this is going to continue we may loose our land to oceans and the indifferent climate conditions may also lead to new unknown diseases, which may challenge the medical world.Now it self we have started to feel the impact of this global warming.

Unless we understand the effects of global warming it is really going to be tough to save our mother earth. 1. Automobiles stay ahead of

everything in the emission of carbon, so as for as possible try to avoid using your automobile for short distances.

2. Instead of everybody using their own vehicle if some of you are working in the same area and living in the same area you can share one vehicle.

3. Now everything can be done through net instead of going to the banks, stations, markets and etc you can do the same by sitting at your home in front of your system.

4. You can reduce the usage of your refrigerator, If you think that how much my refrigerator is going stand as a cause, don't see as one refrigerator of your home count the no of refrigerators around the world in each home and shops, Hotels etc,.

5. Start using the recycle base articles, change from plastic to paper.

6. We can change ourselves to use cotton cloths than silk rayon cloths.

7. As much as possible use cotton bags or paper bags than plastic bags.

8. Instead of searching for a solution how to destroy the used batteries, start using rechargeable batteries.

9. The waste water that is been let out in the process of leather tanning process spoils the soil and its fertility either we should reuse the water through water treatment plants or we should avoid using leather articles.

10.Let us avoid use and throw articles in our daily uses because almost 90 percent of these kind of articles are being made of plastics.

SAVE MOTHER EARTH FROME POLLUTION

Saving the Earth from pollution can't be achieved single-handedly but you can make an important contribution. Adopting a green lifestyle is an important first step. You can, for example, use chemical-free household products, recycle, and reduce your carbon footprint by switching to solar power. Giving practical or financial help to organizations that fight pollution, or helping to campaign for safe disposal of waste and toxins that threaten wildlife, are also effectives ways to help save the Earth from pollution.

Instructions 1. Give financial support to an

environmental or conservation organization. Make a donation to an organization committed to fighting pollution. Conservation International is one organization that works to reduce air pollution from global greenhouse emissions by saving forests. It also works protect oceans from the effects of pollution, thus preserving marine life and protecting an ecosystem that regulates the Earth's climate and feeds billions of people.

2. Give your time and energy as a volunteer. Actively fighting pollution is rewarding because you get to see the results of your efforts. Simply organizing or taking part in a beach cleanup or recycling initiative through a local community group can make a difference. Alternatively, you could sign up as a volunteer with a conservation project in other parts of the world, working to preserve rainforests and helping communities to build a more sustainable environment.

3. Launch a petition. Petitions can be a powerful tool in persuading governments and environmental authorities to adopt more environmentally friendly practices, such as protecting marine life by limiting mercury pollution from coal burning power plants. You can start your own petition on a subject you feel passionate about at the National Wildlife Federation Action Fund website.
