Saving Mother Earth one step at a time



The fluctuating weather, unbearable heat, and the erratic temperatures we endure today is a result of global warming.  It’s sad to know that the global climate has been deteriorating at an alarming rate over the years.  

Here are some ways on how to help save our Earth from the page of HubPages:


  • Doing volunteer work is one way of showing our love and care to our environment.
  • Saving an endangered animal is great deed.
  • Tree planting is one of the most popular ways of protecting our planet.
  • Minimizing the use of refrigerators, foam blowers, solvents, aerosol spray propellants containing chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs).
  • Not buying exotic and endangered animals. 
  • Educating our children, friends, and even our local community about the harmful effects of dynamite fishing, illegal logging, and animal poaching.
  • Reducing, Reusing, and recycling.  Make it a habit to reduce the things we need or we consume.


It doesn’t take a huge effort to keep the Earth from falling apart. A few baby steps at a time can do it.
