Hey all! Vist this website to view the full video =)
Recently I have watched a beautiful and powerful presentation that really touched me, and I wanted to share it with you. I'm sure you'll enjoy the amazing images and the inspiring messages, featuring Bethany Hamilton, John Baker, Paul Hamm, Wilma Rudolph, and lots more.
I think those who are featured have finished strong as they continue to live their lives to the fullest. One of the people I really admire the most is Bethany Hamilton. On October 31, 2003, a tiger shark attacked her while she was surfing with her friends, resulting the lost of her arm. Despite the trauma of the incident, she wa still determined to surf. And she did, and won competitions like Hamilton won the ESPY Award for Best Comeback Athlete of the Year.

Hello there! That is a video of Michael Jackson's - The Earth Song. I was never a fan of Michael Jackson but this song touched me deeply.
I feel that people nowadays need to stop taking things for granted and start getting up on their feet to do good for the planet. There have been more than enough campaigns to educate people on global warming but I feel that people do not take it seriously. Do you feel scared after watching the video? You should as I certainly did.
What is Global Warming?
Global warming An increase in the average temperature of the Earth's atmosphere, especially a sustained increase great enough to cause changes in the global climate. The Earth has experienced numerous episodes of global warming through its history, and currently appears to be undergoing such warming. The present warming is generally attributed to an increase in the greenhouse effect , brought about by increased levels of greenhouse gases, largely due to the effects of human industry and agriculture. Expected long-term effects of current global warming are rising sea levels, flooding, melting of polar ice caps and glaciers, fluctuations in temperature and precipitation, more frequent and stronger El Niños and La Niñas, drought, heat waves, and forest fires.
Causes for Global Warming.
Global Warming is increasing the earth’s average temperature. The Green house gases are the main culprits of the global warming. The green house gases like carbon dioxide and nitrous oxide are playing hazards in the present times. These green house gases trap heat in earth’s atmosphere and thus result in increasing the temperature of earth. The excessive emission of these gases is the major cause of global warming.
How can you can help to reduce Global Warming.
Reduce, Reuse, Recycle. Do your part to reduce waste by choosing reusable products instead of disposables. Buying products with minimal packaging will help to reduce waste.
Drive Less and Drive Smart. Less driving means fewer emissions. Besides saving gasoline, walking and biking are great forms of exercise. Explore your community’s mass transit system, and check out options for carpooling to work or school.
Buy Energy-Efficient Products. When it's time to buy a new car, choose one that offers good gas mileage. Home appliances now come in a range of energy-efficient models, and compact florescent bulbs are designed to provide more natural-looking light while using far less energy than standard light bulbs.
So these are some of the things you can do to reduce Gobal Warming. =)
