What's the problem?
The world population is increasing in an alarming rate. There will be less resources for each person in the future. The world has a fixed amount of natural resources. In fact, some are already used up. The situation will become worse.
Do we intend to allow our children and grandchildren from the future to enjoy clean air, clean water and fuel sources and soil?

“According to the U.S. Census Bureau, the world population is expanding at a mind-boggling rate. The world reached 1 billion people in 1800; 2 billion by 1922; and over 6 billion by 2000. It is estimated that the population will swell to over 9 billion by 2050. That means that if the world’s natural resources were evenly distributed, people in 2050 will only have 25% of the resources per capita that people in 1950 had.”

The threat!
Some of the greatest threats to future resources come from things we throw away everyday.
Throwing away items that could be recycled reduces energy, water and natural resources that could be saved by recycling.

Did you know...

• For every ton of paper that is recycled, the following is saved: 7,000 gallons of water; 380 gallons of oil; and enough electricity to power an average house for six months.

• You can run a TV for six hours on the amount of electricity that is saved by recycling one aluminum can.

• By recycling just one glass bottle, you save enough electricity to power a 100-watt bulb for four hours.

Cyberwellness

Dear Rainbows,

I hope you are enjoying your holidays. I have seen some of your comics. They are very interesting! However, most of you have not completed your comics. Do complete it by the end of the holidays. =D

I have an excellent example about the 'Dangers of Cyber Contacts' from Abrar! (*Although there are a few spelling mistakes.. o_O but good effort! =D)

Enjoy~
