Today
is a new day, everyday people think of how to become better
unfortunately few think about environmental issues. Often times many
forget that their actions or plans directly affect the environment. And
in most cases we complain of diseases (water and airborne), blaming the
government for not doing enough to help us, less drugs in hospitals,
misuse of global funds, etc. Have we thought that we can improve our own
conditions by changing the environment? Think about it before blaming
anyone.

Will our environment ever heal itself
I
hope its time that we all admit that the changes we’re looking for in
our country (Uganda) are fundamental changes in the way we’re living. It
is not in my power to force anyone to adjust or change from the way
they live. But if I had to give one piece of practical advice it would
be this: Whatever we’re doing to our planet is just a mirror reflection
of what we are doing to ourselves and to people who are surrounding us.
Your life plays out as a reflection of who you are through your environment and choices you make. Love yourself enough to create an environment in your life that is conducive to the nourishment of your personal growth. Allow yourself to let go of the people, thoughts, and situations that poison your well-being.
Our task as environmental activists and volunteers is not negotiate with problems but instead to cultivate a vibrant environment that will enable us to commit ourselves towards making choices and solutions that will help our environment to release the greatest expression of our unique purpose and personal integrity.
We don’t have to reason like a man who created the plastic bag and the tin and aluminum can and the cellophane wrapper and the paper plate, and this was a good step for him because he could then take his automobile and buy all his food in one place and He could save that which was good to eat in the refrigerator and throw away that which had no further use. But soon after the earth was covered with heaps and heaps of plastic bags and aluminum cans and paper plates and disposable bottles and there was nowhere to sit down or walk, this Man shook his head and cried: "Look at this Godawful mess”
That man completely failed to understand the mess he created in the first place and that’s why he started blaming God for all the up coming environmental dilemmas that started invading his territory. Human beings we’ve been good towards blaming the government for all the messes and problems we have created ourselves and yet we continue to create and repeat the same things, day in and day out. For example is their any one among us who doesn’t know that throwing trashes like plastic bags full of plastic bottles over the passengers window when we’re traveling is complete backwardness. On the other hand, who doesn’t know that if we stop paying attention to all the things that nature give us for free like clean air, water, mountains, rivers, oceans, and landscapes we’re going to lose the beauty of our planet earth.
We can talk all we want about the failures of our government but there is no one who live in the government. What’s really hard for us to believe that the whole environmental crisis we’re witnessing at the moment here in Africa and across the world has its roots in our lives.
Let’s not continue to deceive ourselves with the way we behave and interact with our environment because this planet is, was, and will always be stronger than us. We can't destroy it; and if we continue to pressurizing it, it’s even capable of erasing us away from its surface and continue to carry its existing mission.
Look at how our trees are excited, bowing all their branches in glorious enthusiasm with hope for tomorrow. Their songs never cease. No wonder they were God’s first cathedral. Let’s honor the connection we have with our planet, let’s honor the art by which it is done, let’s honor the things its makes and its modesty and good work of continuing to provide us with everything we need.
Some one outside their needs to continue protecting this inheritance so that we shall be able to borrow it for our grand grand children.
God bless you for your good work and stewardship towards protecting and preserving the nature of our planet. I love you
