I was fascinated and amazed while watching Greta. She’s fearless and I mostly admired her confident. After watching her video, it is very overwhelming that in a such young age, she can lead a strike to environmental awareness when she should be in school learning and playing with other kids but instead she's playing the role of adults and playing against politics. It's ironic. A sixteen year old kid is doing the responsibility of adults. And even scaring powerful adults because of her good intentions. She’s indeed a role model of her generation.
Greta's video awakened me to know more about the poor condition of our mother nature. I've research more and had knew more. It is not a new story. It is not new and we knew that Nature is dying and climate is badly changing. We are utmost affected. We are mostly to be blamed. It’s alarming that for only 8 years and half CO2 will be gone still we haven’t done anything and keep trashing everything.
Greta is right. Politics and these money-making-robot people are deaf. They keep on building tall buildings, they keep on cutting tall trees, and keep digging fossil fuels just so we can live in a comfort of Science but at the time we live with the consequences of Science. Now, nature is in crisis and so we are. It is bitter sweet truth. They - we preserve ourselves while destroying nature. This is crisis and I stand for Greta! If they don’t listened then we need to do it. In our own little ways, we can help our nature restore its beauty and help heal itself.
Since I’m a student, it is a little impossible for me to joined rallies and strikes for environmental awareness. Instead, in my own little way, I will join service works such clean up drives, tree planting, etc. Because I am living on the country side I can simply plant trees and seedlings in our backyard, simply living the gardening life. Also, by disciplining myself to observe proper way of waste disposal, and avoiding using plastics. I will also use social media as a tool to give environmental awareness and to promote nature. Perhaps in my little way I can make difference and will have an impact.
This is not a drill! #NatureNow
