Is our planet breaking down or is it just a hoax? Are we being drained of renewable resources or are we being lied to by people in charge? Would deciding to follow living green by the majority of world's population save the earth? If we take care ourselves naturally, can this help at a time when healthcare is costly? It is time for the children of the world to be educated in environmentally friendly ways of protecting the environment.

Past generations cultivated their own food and enjoyed maintaining their gardens. The pleasure of the garden, seeing it flower and growing fruits and vegetables is something many children do not experience. Green plants convert carbon dioxide into oxygen but how many youngsters know this? Our bodies and health depend on healthy eating, unpolluted air and clean drinking water. Returning to green living could reverse most of the injury that has been imposed on the planet. There might be consequences as a result of the way we live today. Individuals are living longer, but are they living better? There are illnesses that we no longer have to worry about but there are other perils to our health we need to be aware of. A healthy world and better way of life could be the consequence of a greener way of living. All that is required is to educate a generation of children to the benefits of green living.

Wind power and solar power can replace our strong dependence on coal and oil, and go a long way towards cleaning up the polluted atmosphere. The changes should be carried out now before it is too late. Do we really desire to destroy the earth? To watch the world become completely polluted seems to make no sense. At what point is the air too impure, and the water excessively adulterated, and the food sources too impure that things cannot be swung around. Material commodities look to mean more to people than some of the traditional values we used to have. Making money should not be the motive when considering the health of an individual. We need to be cognizant of the health of our earth, alter our pace of life and help to make the world better for everyone. The importance of profits should be given less focus when viewing options such as wind and solar energy. It is time for our kids to learn how to start living a healthy lifestyle, using natural resources without wasting them, and that there is not another world to move to. This is the only planet we have, and to be responsible citizens we should leave it a better place for our youth. Acquiring green living habits should become a priority for each one of us.
