“There is no Sleepy Hollow on the Internet, no peaceful spot where contemplativeness can work its restorative magic. There is only the endless, mesmerizing buzz of the urban street.” Nicholas Carr, from The Shallows: What the Internet is Doing to Our Brains (New York: Norton, 2010)

Blog 11
Earth is a very beautiful planet. It is saddening to see that humans are constantly destroying the environment. Humans to day are very wasteful and do not realize the impact they are actually having on the environment. Plastic water bottles are a huge market, and are constantly being sold because of their convenience. Not all people realize that these plastic water bottles are damaging the environment when they just throw them away. When chemicals are released into the air and with a filling up of the landfills, this leads to damaging the environment. People do not truly understand these concerns and the impact it will have on the future generations. At the rate the world is going now, the environment will run out of natural resources and the people will live in a very unsafe environment. It is beautiful to see people who care about the planet and take action for what is right. When people recycle, drive less, and conserve energy, it is a beautiful thing because of their respect for the environment. When people care about the future environment of others it is beautiful to see them take care of the planet that so many people take for granted.
