Everyone of us wants to make the world a better place, to make it more livable, and to make it a wonderful place where our children and the next generations could live in. We want to make the world a better place so that our children can live peacefully and harmony. Everyone has his own opinion, so do I.
In my opinion, we cannot make this world a better place if we continue to do what we are doing now. The world cannot be a better place if we continue to ruin it by throwing our thrash anywhere resulting in deaths of animals and fishes. We cannot make the world better by cutting down trees to give way to residential area. The world is not those infrastructures that we built, not the buildings, nor the man-made wonders. The world is best when God made it. It just became terrible when people took over.
For me, to make the world a better place, we need to change ourselves first, our way of life and our habits.
Why throw garbage when we can recycle them? Instead of bottles and plastic products going down rivers and eventually to the oceans resulting to deaths of creatures, why not make things out of them? This ways, we can monetize from them.
When we see garbage on our way to work or school, why don't we take the first step in picking them up? If someone don't see you, then fine. If someone sees you, then much better. That way, by merely picking up that garbage, he who sees you can imitate you and you can start a chain reaction. No place is dirty if everyone does their task in making it clean. Picking up litters one at a time is a long way to go.
There are plenty of things that we can do to make the world a better place. But before you ask someone what he can do to make the world a better place, ask yourself first. What have I done to make this world a better place? Or, Are my actions helped make the world a better place or Am I only ruining it?
See it for yourself.
