It pays to be green

While driving along the freeway going home, I passed by this huge concrete factory. It looked efficient and productive in terms of earnings as this seemed to be a big company. At the back of it, a tall chimney-pipe like tube was billowing white smoke out of it. Out of curiosity, I asked my friend what that smoke is and she told me that, that was a trash incinerator.

It was a recycling plant. We all know that recycling is good but, while recycling, you are creating more smoke to add to global warming. Which is the lesser evil then?

I, myself have been participating in various campaigns to help stop environment deterioration. The latest was the Earth Hour where in I switched off my electricity for not only an hour, but for the entire day! You know the secret? I went to my friends house and celebrated earth hour there with candle lights. If everyone does the same thing that I am doing, the future will be brighter. Literally! Are you thinking about your children’s future?
