I love going to park's late at night and seeing mother nature and the animal's at there best in there own inviroment.I have 2 favorite park's,because of the layout.1st I go to during the day cause it get's way too dark at night,and I walk along the river and all I see is trash in it and I see it in the banks.Then I come out of that part and walk around the 2 lakes and wonder how much trash is in the lakes.My 2nd fav. park I go to at night and there is a spot where you can sit on a marble bench and literally put you hands in the water by the end of the summer there is trash in it and green film on top.it makes the lake look ugly and the geese and ducks don't swim through.Keep our water clean not only for the wild life but for us,we all have to live and survive together.

Going to parks and enjoying nature is important, I too love visiting my favorite parks at night
I hate water pollution! In Perth, there were these amazing market gardens a short walk away from our house- I would go there with my dog almost every day. It was filled with ducks, black swans(such beautiful creatures!), swamp hens, and many,many other species of water birds(as well as a resident turtle!). Unfortunately, people would throw their ciggarettes,bottles and plastic bags into the water. It is bad for the water, horrible for people trying to enjoy the view, bad for the animals, and just careless.

Make sure your camp fire is out and your camp ground you stayed at is clean before leaving.tree's supply oxygen plus more,and to those who hunt.The animals that come down from the montain's what you leave they go through and eateven while you are camping in the mountains.just think about it.

I thought about another thing (and this thread is a good example of how to do it): PR does no harm, and I frequently write letters to the editor of several papers. I do not limit myself to environmental issues, but a healthy percentage of those letters does deal with the environment. If you have ideas about how to lessen the environmetal impact, I suppose it is a good idea to go public with them.

As it happens, the local rag recently started a series about the environment, and keep asking the readers to contribute with their hints and ideas. I have provided a few.

Drive a car with 20 MPGs on a good day. Don't reduce, reuse, OR recycle. Don't eat soy or anything. Don't donate to green causes. Haven't seen "An Inconvenient Truth"...etc.

But hey, I eat so unhealthy that I have to be taken something bad out of the environment.

Well, now... I just got a message from said rag, telling me that I have won a book for my contributions: An Inconvenient Truth...

Yay! Go Claes!

You make an excellent point! Everyone has the ability to help the environment and think of new ways to do so. A lot of people don't help to their potential because they are ignorant of what damage is being caused to our planet and also to how they can help, so it is always a wonderful thing to share your knowledge and experience with others in order to inspire them to improving our world,too.
