The Earth As a Whole

The earth as a whole is:

a place for every animal

> think about these things:

        •in order for some animals to survive heat, they needed to burrow their very selves underground just for them to have a cool place underground.  This is very common to dessert animals who want to try to avoid the very disgusting dessert heat.

        • Recent studies show that giant tortoises that live in the Indian Ocean Part of Aldabra die because they tend to find shade from trees to avoid the very same heat. But the sad part is, they always drive themselves away from the trees because the food supply isn’t enough for all of them so what they do is, to travel to a jungle-like-beside-the-sea place where the food can suffice their daily needs. Another sad story is, throughout their journey, many tortoises die along way. Many turtle babies were not able to see the light anymore because the sand where they are being incubated produces extreme heat that they are dying already. As what the study say, “Young animals are at greater risk of heat stress than adults.”

a place for every plant

> on the case of plants:

        • Phreatophytes are plants that have adapted to arid environments by growing extremely long roots, allowing them to acquire moisture at or near the water table. [Source]

        • Tress die faster because of heat rather than growing. Sometimes, it takes 3-20 years for a tree to become an adult one where people and animals can take food, things, and etc. But what will happen if the extreme heat can produce forest fires and thing like dehydration in plants?

a place for all of us:

>on our part [who are considered to be the caretaker of the world]:

        • I will not anymore focus on the problems we can face but rather, let these words from me hit you intimately.

            ♥ Do you want to survive heat by burrowing yourself underground like what the dessert animals can do?

            ♥ Do you have plans in visiting Aldabra? Then you will most likely see the dead tortoise who died along their trek in finding a place where food can suffice their needs.

            ♥ I bet you cannot grow roots in your body in order for you to avoid heat right? remember, we are humans. homo sapiens as other would say. and we are not Phreatophytes.

            ♥ Can you manage to see your forest burning because of the extreme heat? Where do you think the newly wed couples can look for logs in order for them build their house and start a happy life? Where can we get our papers? How can we live?

NOW PEOPLE, what can we do? It’s up for us to think. You can ignore this thing or learn something from this. Let’s save our mother Earth. Let’s fight global warming.

Reuse what you can reuse.

Reserve what you can reserve.

Recycle what can be recycled.

Love what you can love.

 Care for what you can care.

Because, our Mother Earth cares for us. Our Mother Earth what’s best for us. Let give the best for her! ^^,
