I can too!

Hurricane Katrina and global warming are topics that have been brought to my attention, but never to my heart. Personally, I have never specifically cared about those things that don’t directly involve me. I have never been negative toward helping people, but I didn’t make it a priority to care about issues so far from home. This class has forced me to make an opinion, take a stand, and do my part.Katrina is over, and what’s done is done; but to me, it gives an incentive to be more supportive and willing to help when the next disaster finds its way here. Even though our conversation was based on the help provided by the government, it found a way to compel me to do what I can to help.
Global warming is not over, and I can help. As mentioned before, a few simple alterations to my lifestyle can make an impact. Before our discussion, I would turn off the lights simply to save my power bill. Now, I still turn them off but for reasons that aren’t so selfish. I do my best to change what I can, because the wellbeing of the planet means more to me than my money. (But, I get to save that, too!)
