The Trip to the Library/Save the Planet [Spring Break]-You Already Know!!

Though i have visited many libraries, i must admit that this was quite an interesting trip. I must start off by commenting on the Tour of that fascinating library , with the lions statues. I'm sure that many classmates will agree that it was a site to see. However, the guy that was explaining the history of exhibit, was certainly killing me. I don't know if everyone else was tired of listening, but i know that i certainly couldn't take anymore. But i did admire that the structure of the building. As the guy mentioned, the wall were certainly different from most wall, built now of days. I guess they don't make them like that anymore. Anyhow, i learned a tremendous amount of things about these two libraries. The First library was certainly interesting, in the sense that the building had so many sources of research. Throughout the first and fifth floor, there were sources from Different nationalities of the world, documentations on famous people, such as Abraham Lincoln, Thomas Jefferson's, I mean actual DVD footage of these kinds of people. I wanted to to check out some items, unfortunately i didn't have a library card. I was really impressed with what i saw. What also made the library so cool was the fact that there was a separate floor for the media. In which you could actually receive access to the web, as well as look up some of the best magazines. The list goes On.

I pretty sure that there was also of sources on how to keep the planet from self destructing. I din;t really have that much time to find any thing, but i am however, trying many new life changes to make the planet a better place. I know that i won't make much of a difference, but i don't mind making a positive difference. As mentioned previously, i do in fact try to do little things around the house different. I we also switched from plastic containers, to glass. We recycle a lot more often, and we also try to conserve a little bit more energy. I turn things off more frequently, such as the bathroom light, computer, television, thing that don't need to be plugged in, such as the charger for my phone, generally things of this nature. Like i said, it's not much, a a little bit does make a difference, even if it's just a small contribution. Plese feel free to comment, or make suggestions, peace.

Go Green- What can me and My Family do!

There are many different things that we as a society can do to make this world a better place. I try to do little, in regards to making this a better place. It's not much, but it is certainly a start. The first time i saw An Incontinent Truth, I really couldn't believe my ears. I didn't realize how much humans, denaturalize the environment. It wasn't really important to me before. My model was, what can my little self do to help the environment, not much, But after watching this interesting film, my interest in making this a better planet changed. I then wanted change my way of life. The thing that scared me was when Al Gore showed what can happen to New York City at the rate that we are going. I saw that the city could actually go under water. For me this was a major wake up can. Indeed I do try to do little things to help the environment. When I remember, I do recycle. I also try to conserve energy. I try not to keep the T.V running all night, turn of the bathroom light, generally simple things. I came across an interesting website that suggested several things that we could do to make this world a better place. Surprisingly there were actually some suggestions that I would consider. Not all, But some. It mentioned how using organic cotton, could help, which would be a problem for me, as long as the material is still name brand. Also to use a human lawnmower, as opposed to using one ran by energy. This wouldn't be a bad idea, only we don't have any land to mow. So this would be irrelevant, in my case, Or to dry cloths using a clothes lines, rather than to use the dryer, My moms use to this when I was younger. Maybe she might consider that idea. Also to ride bikes, in replacement of a vehicle, in which I don't think would work out for my parents, simply because they are old and lazy, But me being young without a car. I will surly consider that idea. These were all interesting proposals. I want to make this world a better place, so perhaps me and my family could, dry our cloths the old fashion way, recycle, by organic cotton cloths, turn out lights when it's necessary. These are some of the thing we can do to get this positive movement rolling.
