a green eye?


suddenly.. i saw this clip.

its happening and its getting bigger. no doubt that most of us already know about this and it has been informed for the longest time. school children knows about it and adults talk about it. but what is there to be done? what is there to be done about global warming?

as of today:
malaysia : last year, flood striked the nothern of malaysia but the situation was moderate. this year, the flood has strike in johor and has left thousands homeless and 18 death. forecast says that the weather are begining to change for the better. lets just pray that the weather does but if it doesnt, i dont know how many ppl can continue to stay there.

oklahoma : freezing winter storms across the central U.S. plains killed at least 23 people in Oklahoma and snarled transportation across the country's midsection on Wednesday, officials said. read more.

taiwan : underwater earthquake hit and the internet connection was disrupted for almost the whole asia pacific. altho [ thank God ] there wasnt a tsunami like what happened 2 years [ or is 3 ] ago, there was chances it could have happened.

philippines : flood and landslide has hit there and has left many homeless and well, 23 death.

and many more here..

i dont know about the rest of you.. but i'm speechless. sad. scared. many times we would probably say..

left brain : eh.. you saw know about global warming ar.. more serious la
right brain : wahh.. so concern. so greenie. go do something la
left brain : our earth mar, of cuz must concern. if not we die early leh.
right brain : okie lor.. you go do something la
left brain :do what leh? donno la..
right brain : donno then how to do? then how? aiyoh.. come la. we go drink teh tarik first la.. coffee better la.


thats a typical conversation that we would probably have or at least the thought. i have had that thought before. but somehow now i'm a lil more scared.

well, i'm confused now. we are responsible for whats happening, wouldnt you say? but at the same time, the world is developing. new technology and infrastructure taking over. world's population is increasing.

but what can we really do..? for real.. enough about talking and discussing about it and no action.. but now to really do it. to have an action for what we say.

is there really something we can do now..?

[ sorry if it sounded very 'greenie' or factual. but its something i felt when watching it and pondering abt it ]

'we lived in this world and we are going back to where eternity is with God. He created this world for us to stay temporarily. He loaned it to us. are we destroying what is His?'

i had those thoughts before too. more like fear though what if it happens to closer at home and ppl i love. but i don't think the left brain and right brain does that. it is mostly your right brain only i think hahhah. when an idea pop up that is probably the left brain. btw thanks for reminding me i had not been reading the papers.

yea, i guess we only feel the fear more when it hits nearer to home, nearer to our loved ones. but still.. what can we do?!

my dad says its the work of the scienties to figure it out. then at the meant time, what do we do while they figure how to save teh world and mankind?

haha.. oh well, i havent read the papers too.. just been talking alot with those who have. haha!
