The Elements.... and I'm not talking about Earth, Wind, and Fire... or Am I?

 

 There’s a saying that says home is where the heart is. When thinking of home most people think about their physical homes where they get their mail and lay their heads. However, its much deeper than that. The true home where everyone resides is Earth. It is hardly ever thought of “home”, but it’s technically the global home of every human being. So much is done to make our living here on Earth comfortable: for example, building of nice homes, manufacturing of luxury cars, cultivating of the best foods, and the use of the best minerals and raw materials to make the best clothes.

                Has anyone ever thought about what can be done to preserve the Earth? The very land we use to make a comfortable living. Taking care of home means taking care of the Earth, having a heart, and conserving the Earth’s natural resources include air, water, soil, minerals, plants, and animals. Air and water pollution, global warming, smog, acid rain, deforestation, wildfires are just few of the environmental issues that we are facing right now. In order to combat these issues, members are needed to become apart of the fight to protect Earth, and make it a lasting, clean place to live.

                 According to the National Geographic; the population of human beings has grown enormously in the past two centuries. Billions of people use up resources quickly as they eat food, build houses, produce goods, and burn fuel for transportation and electricity. The continuation of life as we know it depends on the careful use of natural resources.
