Nature freak........?

Question

in school lately we have been talking about global warming and earth day and stuff. I have been thinking about how much we pollute our world and how it affects us. I want to start picking up trash on the side of the road and planting flowers and trees but i am afraid that people will think i am a nature freak. I know that if they think that then they are not a good person so dont say that because i am not a nature freak and do not want to be one. I just want to help put a litte. Should i help or not? Thnx.

Answer 1

who cares about what people think

this is the only home we got ,and this is your only life

make the most of it

and be on the positive side

not the destructive one

and infect others with your energy and morality

global warming i dont think can be stopped but we can stop helping it becoming faster,this requires global co operation between all countries ,and taking into account human nature and the world politics ,it is unlikely that this will happen,

At least not untill we are all in the middle of planetary disastres and it becomes a battle for the survival of humanity every where.

and pioneer people with guts who are not afraid to set a good example ,like you ,are needed more than ever

You should help.  I pick up trash by the side of the road all the time.  Everyone should.
