Do your bit to help save the environment.

Every day mom prepares some brown bread and go for shopping for some veggies-healthy food to keep us feeling well. But consider this: each plastic bag that she used will survive for a million years and keep releasing harmful gases that cause global warming.


So blame mummy .....no that's not the matter we are talking about......

Here are a certain number facts about that culprits:
  • Disposable diapers take between 500 and 600 years to degrade
  • A can of your favourite soft drink takes 200 to 500 years
  • And we cannot even begin to calculate how long a glass bottle or styrofoam glass takes


  • So do we give up everything then? Is it possible? No.
    But perhaps it is better to live by the rule that if you do dump something on the earth, let it be something that degrades at least in your lifetime.
    Yeah it is possible!
    For instance, a cotton rag takes 5 months to degrade, a banana peel takes about three to four weeks and a paper bag takes about 5 months.

    So do your bit to help save the environment.
