Wake Up

Wake Up

As most of you know, this situation has been brought to attention many times, however most people still don’t do anything about it. Ironically, they still complain about it. Many people are still oblivious to the truth. Things around us are signaling that the way the environment is disheveled is incompatible with how we react to the signs. Hopefully environmentalists and world leaders would compromise to delay global warming in some way being that it can’t be stopped. We should all be moral and vindicate going ‘green’. Many people view it differently though. The stubborn mind would just deplore with that idea and take things for granted and we all know that most people have skeptical beliefs since global warming is still a theory. Pretty soon all our world supplies would be depleted.
Everyday we keep hearing ‘’ let’s all go ‘green’.’’ Or we’ll see advertisements on streets, subways, buses or media about being eco-friendly. It’s all for a cause, but honestly it does get annoying how people feel as if they’re impervious to the truth. Truth is that we don’t really have enough time on our hands. We can’t stop global warming though, but the only other option is to delay it in some way as I’ve mentioned earlier. Every time you make a decision, it affects what’s going to happen. Documentaries such as ‘The 11th Hour’ or The Inconvenient Truth’ both provide messages for us and opens doors to our eyes. If we all were to just listen, then perhaps our narrow minds would be more dilated. In how it differs, is a question all on its own. The possibilities are endless though if we were open-minded about it.
Being that the United States are the number one country in consuming fossil fuel, we should do something about finding an alternative to consuming that kind of fuel. In my opinion, the attitude that most Americans feel is that our supplies of imported goods are abundant. If everyone were to do something to mitigate the situation, we wouldn’t have this nemesis. Perhaps, with future technology and research, we can consider turning the clock back a bit. What we did in the past, reflects what we did today and what we did today reflects our future.
Before the theory of Global Warming was only hypothetical, now it is very serious. The facts given from scientists to prove that the ozone layer is being by all the carbon dioxide we use, also known as the Greenhouse Effect has been nullified by the government to prevent people from panicking. Now, the fear of global warming has augmented since the year 2003. Increasing global temperature will cause the sea level to augment, and is expected to increase the intensity of extreme weather events and to change the amount and pattern of precipitation. Other effects of global warming include changes in agricultural fields, trade routes, glacier retreat, specie extinctions and increase in the ranges of disease vectors, and could be deleterious to living things.
Our time of jubilation is going to come to an end because of the harms global warming is doing to the Earth. Global Warming does perpetual harms everyday, for example, about one milliliter of sea level increases everyday, and it is impervious to prevent it, eventually the Earth will flood. And since we all use automobiles for transportation, it releases to much carbon dioxide into the atmosphere, causing the ozone layer to disperse. We should find a way to suppress the way we use our cars, to decrease the harms done to the ozone layer, and try not to be so diffident about the situation and keep our planet embellished.

College Essay

Throughout my life, there have been many people I have been raised from, I have my parents, my brother, and even my friends, and the enviroment I used to live in has shaped me into what I am today. I grew up in Jamaica, Briarwood, where the last thing people wanted to go was into an educational system, and neither did I. My mother and father always told me that education was the key to success, and after college, life would be so much smoother, my father once said that, and unfortunately for him, he never had a father to tell him what he tells me to do to succeed, which is why I appreciate my father for being there for me. My father grew up in Ecuador, Quito, and after high school, he came to the United States to work, and took a big risk coming here, but he did it because he heard that America was the best opportunity to work. That influenced me a lot because my father sacrificed everything he had so I would have a good future, he once told me knowing I graduated college, he can die in peace, and I will not fail him.

There are many reasons why I never wanted to go to school, but there was only one reason why I always went, it was because I don't want my family and friends to be disappointed in me. My family sacrificed so much ti see me grauduate from college, and I don't want to fail them. Many people I have been raised by have depended on me to go to college because they never had the chance to go because they believed working was the best solution was to succeed in this life.

The main reason I wanted to succedd in my education was so the people that raised me didn't waste their time, all the hard work and discipline they have taught me so I can finish school and be a professional. Everyone I know wants the best for me, my friends, my family, and even my teachers I have today.
