Question of the Day
"If you could change one thing about the environment,
what would it be and why?"
by Julie Grenier, TG Magazine youth journalist
"I
would change something about overpopulation. The more people there
are, the greater the stresses on all resources. Overpopulation
also leads to less education, which leads to less understanding on
why to conserve." says Douglas Lay from the USA
"I
would change the way people view their environment. I wish people
would treat the areas that they live in as places to protect.
Maybe naturalize cities. It would make us more in touch with
nature," says Jake Berkowitz from Canada
"I
would stop deforestation. It's important to conserve nature," says
Asuka Imani from Japan
"I
would do something about the population situation. Humans are
stressing the earth with their demands. As you add to the
population, you equally add pressure to the earth," says Barry
Hughson from Canada
"I
would stop the deforestation of the rainforest because it holds
rich areas in terms of biodiversity. A lot of O2 in our air is
contributed by the rainforest, and there are a lot of plants with
great medecinal value. Plus, people also live there," says Keiren
Bluestone from Switzerland
