Save the world...

I just thought of writing something that could contribute a bit to the society. Global warming has become a very serious issue and problem discussed nowadays. The ice has started to melt in the Artic region. How can we reduce global warming effect to save the environment? I don't think we can stop this global warming problem completely. What we can do is only to reduce the effect as much as we can, to delay the worst to come.

We, as the citizen and residents of the world, have to start doing something. That will the best and most effective way. Some of the easy ways that we can apply when carrying out our day-to-day activities:

1. Bring a cloth bag for shopping trips. Of course, this can help reduce the use of plastic bags. And say no to plastic bags when you only purchase one or few items.

2. Recycle your newspaper, magazines, glass, tin as well as recycle plastics.

3. Try to take public transport if possible. If not, then try to car pool with friends. This can help a bit to reduce air pollution.

There are a lot of other ways that we can do our part in contributing to save the environment from being damaged by human activities. Try to influence and encourage close friends and family members to do the same with you. We don't want to live in a world which is badly polluted and become hotter due to global warming...

Beside, organizations nowadays have started to engaged in their business activities socially and ethically. Moreover, research has shown that reputation of the firms is one of the factors that can directly link to the success of the firms.

Another important party that can do something is the Government. The Government can impose some policies and rules to encourage and govern the people as well as organizations to be socially and ethically responsible for the environment.
