Oh, I totally agree that a lot of people just are not educated enough on this issue. Some people even think that problems such as global warming are inflated to seem like a big deal, and shrug it off as though it is not important. And as for not actually doing anything to help the environment, I could definitely relate to that as well. A lot of this has to do with passivity, and yes, the self-defeat attitude is certainly present.

Unfortunately people don't care. That's what frustrates me. People view me as too environmental sometimes, but I just think people just aren't environmental ENOUGH. =/

To Andrew:
Sure thing Andrew. I'm down for that. I mean I make fun of you for your little infatuation for parks, but you never brought up that idea before. Feeding ducks and whatnot is not my idea of fun, but planting trees and cleaning up the park is beneficial for both you and me so yea. :) haha

To Anonymous Person #2:
I think the major problem that people have is that they're not educated about what's really going on. And the idea that one person doing something isn't enough is completely wrong. One person can make the difference. And if that one person can get another person to join them, that's two people. I think the problem is that we already admitted defeat before we actually start something, so we tell ourselves why start at all? I've gone through this myself before and it doesn't really work because I just get a nagging feeling of how I don't actually achieve anything with this self-defeat attitude. So what tends to happens is that people turn a blind eye to the reality. =/ sucks. And thanks for the comment. I'm sure it's not that interesting lol, but I do like to know feedback and your opinions of my blog.

Thanks to all the commenters x) <33

I think that humans should try to preserve whatever part of nature that is left, before it all gets destroyed and we get deprived of its magnificent beauty. However, it obviously is not as simple as it seems, particularly because most people seem to have the mindset that it is an impossible task, since the globe is so heavily populated, and that individual efforts do not make a difference. I admit that I could do a lot more to help the environment, but I do recycle and reuse when I can. It really is disheartening to see so much garbage on the streets, in bodies of water, etc., because stuff like that could be prevented. As for the luxuries that we as Americans enjoy, I cannot envision us suddenly being without said luxuries, because most, if not all, of us have gotten so used to certain utilities and items being available to us. In a sense, I think that we do take advantage of what we have and use, and tend to focus on how much we could use based on our financial situation, rather than on the status of the environment. This reality is sad and selfish, especially knowing that we could survive with certain things if we choose to do so.

Very interesting blog entries, by the way.
