Q: After reading the article on the global water crisis, do you think you will reduce the amount of water ? Why or why not?

Every year, more and more people are born into the world. Population has been rising with each year that passes, but our resources, especially water, do not increase with it. We use water in many different ways every day, from the time we get up to the time we sleep at night, water is vital resource in our lives. We brush our teeth with water, we drink water; we use it to wash our clothes, our bodies and our foods. We also use water to keep plants healthy and to grow crops and to feed animals. Although the earth is mostly covered by water, we can only use one third of water because one third of water is fresh water and the other cannot be used as it is too salty. Nowadays, people have been getting the water crisis because there is not enough water for increasing human population. Also, people waste the water without regarding the future generation and water pollution make the people not enough to use the water. So if we do not reduce the amount of water we use, our next generations will be endangered and the shortage of water will be a big problem for all human being and there might be wars in the future between countries because of water. Today, we can see some countries are in the shortage of water and people are dying for that. To be a steward of the planet, we need to be able to save water and also teach others how to save water. After reading the article on the global water crisis, I also think I will reduce the amount of water that I use. The best place to start is with our own actions. Small changes made at home or around us can make a big difference when it comes to conserving our natural resources and protecting our planet for future generations.The following link is about a video  to be water conscious;

Deforestation concerns in Myanmar(Burma)

There is not enough electricity in Myanmar. So many other parts in Burma relies on wood as the main source of energy. They cut down woods to make firewood for cooking. They have been cutting down the woods for many years, so many forest areas in Burma are going to deforest soon. For example, ago township was once flourished with trees but now most forests have turned into farmlands. Myanmar’s forests are needed to be maintained right away. The tyrannical government also sells teaks to other countries and now some kind of wood like mangrove is becoming rare. As trees are important and taking part in maintaining the environment and natural disasters, we do need to care about our environmental problem which is threatening to all Myanmar people. For solving this problem, the government seems to do something about that. But in my opinion, we Burmese people must be care about the future and reduce using firewood a lot while the government is making laws not to cut down trees easily. Some NGOs have been doing projects to plant small trees in some places in Myanmar and also making GO GREEN project for the future.

My weekend trip to Niagara on the lake Ontario.

Last Saturday, I went to Niagara Fall for the weekend trip. We gathered near the Galasino Building around 8:30 in the morning. We started one and half-hour driving to Niagara and we arrived at the Niagara park at noontime. Then we went into the stores. We visited a handicraft store which had handicrafts from around the world such as Africa, Asia, Canada and etc. The prices were so high that I could not afford to buy them. There were also lots of handicrafts, gifts and outfits stores along the street. I saw there so many Chinese people and I thought I was in China. We wandered on the street and took pictures with the fall until eleven and thirty o’clock, then I was very hungry. But the fall was so fascinated to me that I could control my hunger (actually I had only little money~~~!)Then some of my Chinese friends and I did the Maid of the Mist boat trip. We were very surprised by the little time it took to get on the MAID OF THE MIST boat. The line was very long so I thought that it would take us hours to board the boat. However, we were pleased to see the fall and it was really not irritating to walk the line and wait. It was an amazing experience!
The boat took us right underneath the fall. Getting so close to the fall was fantastic! But I felt like I was in the rain and it was like taking a shower all over again because of the water from the fall. I got wet as I was trying to take the pictures close to the fall. But I was really happy because I had been to one of the wonders of the world's nature..I had also been to both sides of America and Canada.After that, we all had to gather at the park at 1:00p.m so we went back. On the way, we went shopping at a plaza and we arrived at the Nazareth in the evening. Of course, I was really pleased to get such a great experience tripping to Niagara Fall for the first time of my life in USA. Thank you God for everything You have done to me!!!
