Going Green

In the picture to the right, it shows the Earth being coughing. When you cough you are usually sick. I used this picture because to me, this small cartoon of the Earth has a huge meaning. To me, this image shows the Earth sick. Why is the Earth sick? Because it is getting sick of all of our mistakes when it comes to recycling and "going green." Too many in our world do not recycle. As i've learned in my group project with "going green," less than 30% of the globe recycles. The Government is trying to give us answers to all of our past mistakes by giving us hybrid cars, electric cars, and even solar panels for our houses. But out of all those things i just mentioned, your average American cannot afford the costs of these items. And if the average American can't afford these things, how can other countries afford them when we are considered one of the wealthiest nations on the planet? All around the globe governments are trying to solve this crisis. But the answer is truly simple, RECYCLE! If everyone in the world would quit being lazy and pitch in to recycle and help make the environment a better place, we would not be having global warming. Again, to me, this picture means alot. It is just a creative cartoon but it's meaning is phenominal and i think that we must all come together if we ever expect our Earth to become as healthy as it once was
