The different environments all over the world are precious and special and should be treated with care.

Sarah BeattiePublished 4 years ago in The SwampUnpopular Opinion: Recycling is Bullsh*t
Yes, this is an unpopular opinion. Sorry for knocking you off your high horse. Please, don’t get me wrong. I care about the planet and I am happy we have found a way for everyone to do their little bit. But, don’t misunderstand, that is just it. A little, insy-winsy bit. A tiny way for you to say you’re doing your part for the planet when, in reality, all recycling does is boost your ego. You are not single-handedly rebuilding the o-zone layer, you are not shutting down oil rigs in the South Pacific, you are not rescuing Koala’s from bushfires. You are putting your paper in a separate, slightly smaller bin.
Max Coles-MorleyPublished 4 years ago in The SwampThe dying planet: its a rich man's world
In the fight to keep our Earth turning, its money that makes the world go round. The world's richest 1% encompasses 44% of global wealth and some of the members of this exclusive club, coincidentally (or not-so-coincidentally) happen to be some of the world's most influential. Jeff Bezos, Mark Zuckerberg and the like have the ultimate power for change - which makes it all the more damaging that they contribute the least to the cause. Greta Thunberg and the Extinction Rebellion have done well to inspire ordinary folk like you and me to do their own bit for the environment, however, Greta did not set out to do this, in fact, her goal was to arouse change in the men with the moolah: the celebrities, the CEOs, the biggest influencers.

In today’s world of constant change and technological advancements, we have witnessed a rise in pollution, and exhaustion of natural resources. The world is getting hotter, while we continue to pollute and degrade our planet. Ecosystems are being destroyed, and wastelands are filling up to their brim. To put it into perspective, according to National Geographic scientists, Alaskan glaciers are melting one hundred times faster than was previously thought. The world’s population is rising exponentially, leading to an increase in the number of vehicles on roads, and in turn the consumption of petrol and diesel.

The vast fields of wind turbines under the gorgeous blue sky always remind us of a feeling of serenity and peace. Given that, birds are not deemed to feel that way. In the US alone, scientists estimate that roughly 150,000 birds are affected: from being slashed to changes to customs/habitats [1].
