Listening the the song Automatic by Tokio Hotel and what the DJs said made me think. Almost everything is changing from manual to automatic these days, like driving a car, opening a door, flushing the toilet bowl, washing your hands and many more to list. Stating the obvious, it seems like technology is progressing.

Recently there are a lot of issues about the climate changes that is occuring throughout the world and the possible effects it has on the environment and the human race. World leaders have gather at Copenhagen to attend the UN Climate Talk, hoping to come to an new aggreement to deal with the problem especially when the Kyoto Protocol is expiring in 2012. It is heartening to see leaders of the world, coming together in a joint effort to deal with the problem. While that is hapenning, people in other parts of the world still act like they do not care about the environment, like they have nothing to do with it. Although I recognises maximum effort from the minority groups of people, doing all they can to help save the environment, we know that it is not enough until the whole world starts to work together. With this in mind, it seem like the human race is regressing.

At crucial times like these, we cannot afford years and decades for people to start do something about our deteriorating environment. " Better late than never " does not work in these case. We need everyone to have the initiative to start to help save the world, even if all that you can do is go without a plastic bag. Now is the time for us to be automatic and not just sit behind, wait and see what the government is going to do. We all have to knowledge we need to do our part to save the world, so now, what matters most is are we making good use of the knowledge?

Earth Song by Michael Jackson

Hey, what about yesterday
What about the seas
The heavens are falling down
I can't even breathe
What about apathy
I need you
What about nature's worth
It's our planet's womb
What about animals
We've turned kingdoms to dust
What about elephants
Have we lost their trust
What about crying whales
We're ravaging the seas
What about forest trails
Burnt despite our pleas
What about the holy land
Torn apart by creed

Do we give a damn

DO WE? If yes, do somthing!
