Saving Gaia

Gaia in Greek means "Earth" and is synonymous with "Mother Earth".

There's a program called "Saving Gaia" showing on Channel NewsAsia. It's about the problems faced by dear Mother Earth now and a series of problems we will face if we continue to do damages to the earth...

I have watched episode 1 and 2: "When the cities go under"and "When the animals die".

Whenever I watch the program, I'll feel so sad and disappointed... Worried about the future of the earth and the people.. People in the third world countries are suffering from the damage done to the earth by the first world countries who destroy the earth bit by bit...

Right now, we can experience the consequences such as climate change, weird weathers....Haiz...

I was really in a state of disgust and shock when I watched the episode of "When the animals die"... A live elephant was being squeezed into a small space and people began poking it with poles, pushing and breaking its bones.. One person even climbed up to its head and used something like a sickle to whack its forehead several times!!!!

ARGH!! SO ANGRY!!! Sharks are being cut off their fins alive and throw back into the sea, to be left to die too!!! It says if we do nothing, sharks will be extinct in 15 years!!! Sharks' fin has no nutritional value and no taste..so people only eat it for the texture.. poor sharks...

You know, I will consider taking out sharks' fins from my future wedding dinner and replace it with something of similar value.. Dun be disappointed if you are invited to my wedding and find out that's no sharks' fins hor....I'm not being stingy k.....
