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.
