This video from WWF – the global conservation
organization – is sure to inspire the eco-lover
in all of us. The riverside area in the video cannot be more beautiful:
mountains, trees, fishes, ducks, two butterflies flying about, and the
clean waters of a creek flowing peacefully. |
|
Suddenly, a red pickup truck full of trash – and
polluting the air with its exhaust fumes – appears on the spot. The
driver backs the truck close to one of the river banks and throws the
garbage into the clean waters. He drains a soda can and he even throws
it into the river. An empty barrel, a waste tire, some bags and his soda
are his best contribution to pollute this waterway. |
|
Of course, in a metaphorical manner, Nature always
takes its revenge. When the driver in question arrives home for a fresh
shower he not only ends up receiving trash for water, but also the soda
can he threw into the river. |
|
Throwing trash into a river is really disgusting and
my irritation levels soar at the thought of people doing it. One must
keep the rivers pure as every bit of trash adds up to the contamination
of the wild areas and the cities. The rivers are where our children swim
and where we get our drinking water. |
|
Although many organizations have started to plan
river cleanups, that's not enough if
we do not understand the importance of not littering. Therefore, before
throwing garbage
into rivers, just Think Again
!! |
