Let’s be frank, there are some perceptions we carry in our society that makes it hard for things to be done. Take for instance, a ‘big man/woman’ in your community committing to riding a bicycle to and from work every day. Guess what people will be saying? Yours is as good as mine.
How about consistently using a water bottle or committing to using a particular container or canteen for your food all the time? These are things that are quite hard for people to do these days, to be honest.

Today I want you to get back to them or start picking up those habits because guess what; you will be contributing immensely to saving our world, at a time when we are all talking about climate change and making this place a safe one for our children, their children and their children’s children.
Dedicating to using water bottles means you are reducing the amount of plastics that could potentially end up in the wrong place every day. It is same for using biodegradable containers for your food. Take a cursory look at the number of plastics you are given when you purchase your favorite Waakye or beans and Gari. Many end up in the wrong place and continue to make our world an unsafe place to be.

How about committing to use a bicycle for your “rounds”? You are contributing immensely to reducing the amount of carbon that enters the earth’s atmosphere every day. This saves the planet a whooping lot! In addition to that, you are exercising and don’t have to bother about traffic. There are many ways to make our lives safe and easy, and taking the right steps along these lines every day contributes to that.
So hey! Doing these things has nothing to do with a certain perceived status or attitude after all. It turns out , rather, you get to become a super hero. You are saving the planet! That’s something to be proud about. So from here, start thinking about the things you can do to help you contribute in your own to saving our environment.
Some good Waakye with all the accompanying condiments in Ahaban (leaves) won’t be bad at all! Enjoy living healthy whiles saving the environment.
Taking an action to save earth starts now. CLIMATE ACTION NOW!!
