Our planet is dying. We know it but still, choose to ignore it. It's like a canvas, with the most beautiful painting, you have ever seen. And now people are throwing bits of grey paint on it. And they will keep throwing grey paint, until the painting is gone. We hurt and abuse our plants and animals. We choose to kill little ants and beetles. Why? It's because we think that our planet will never die. Never think about their families and their duties and responsibilities. We just think; "oh wow, what a pain." Those flies risking their lives to get some food. And what they and their fellow partners see is: smush. Why is our species, our kind, killing, destroying, vandalizing our only home. Do we not see the dangers, of our planet one day; slipping away, right in front of our very eyes. And only then will we think; Why? Why? Why... And that day, can be tomorrow. Or the day after, or even one or two hours from now. It can be sooner or later. Whether you are young or you are old. One day... you will regret. It might not be in your lifetime. Maybe your posterity's. But think. That, that one day. Will come. And you will sigh. Your children will sigh. Your grandchildren will sigh. Your great-grandchildren will sigh. Your great-great-grandchildren will sigh. And they will ask. Why? You have a choice. Not one, not two, but many choices. Will you save the earth? Or will you wait till that day. Where you will ask again and again; Why? I am not the boss of you. Nor your mother or father. But I am someone. And I am telling you. Crying, yelling, asking. Will you save our earth? Or will you wait until it is gone. And you will never this chance again. Starting with one small tiny step, will change your life.
