As time goes on, people have come to realize the importance of protecting the environment. But they can’t deal with everything by themselves. Take small steps, and you can make a difference.
● Think Green. Think about the environment as you live your life. If you turn off lights and TVs when leaving the room, you’ll save energy. If you take shorter showers, you will save water.
● Shop Green. Shopping is fun, but buying things you don’t need is wasteful and even bad for the earth. Before you buy something, ask yourself how much you will use it, whenever possible, buy things locally made instead of those shipped from far away.
● Dress Green. What really matters is not the color. It’s how the clothes were made. So look for products made from environmentally friendly materials.
● Study Green. What’s better than learning about the environment? Save it while you learn. It can be sa simple as using both sides of a piece of paper before you recycle it.

The transition from old fuels to new will be slow, as will the development of new technologies that present feasible alternatives to fossil fuels or help eliminate food and water problems. All current technologies are inadequate, and new ones will probably not be commercially possible by 2025
