Consciousness Runs Deep

This video was very interesting and artistic, which I think was interesting and adds to the message of the video. When the man was walking on the street he didn't stop to pick up the trash that was on the ground, but after he learned to appreciate the world for what it is and what it does for us, while he was out fishing he picked up the trash he found. I looked up the company that made the video, and it turns out it isn't a company at all but, a nonprofit organization, called Soul River, that helps bring veterans and inner city youth together to appreciate the beauty of nature. Strengthening their relationships with nature, they are informed on the environment and trained in outdoor skills and activities and informed to become advocates for conservation. I do not think that this is a marketing ploy, but instead a video to show what their work is intended to do and make a difference in people's lives.

Environmental Ethic:
My personal environmental ethic includes the standards that I have learned that I hold myself to when it comes to my footstep on the planet. I've always been proud to say that I have been vegetarian for 10 years, as I personally believe that was a huge step for me in my morals involving the environment and I hope to go even further and become vegan for the animals and the impact on the environment. I love nature and I will do my part in protecting it as the world changes and there are more and more ways to support and push these changes forward.

    As one who grew up in the age of dumping oil, pesticides, nasty chemicals in gutter drains and even having a incinerator in our backyard it is so nice that you young adults care so much for our planet. Growing up we didn't know about all the bad things that we were doing to the planet and it took me many years after the warnings started to learn how bad the situation was. Thanks to your generation when you get old enough to run this and other countries the world will become a BETTER place for all that are living things, be it animal, fish in the ocean and people. Keep up the good work and never back down on your believes.

The Story of Bottled Water

Image
The video being discussed is here:  https://vimeo.com/10441794 Where does that single use water bottle that you threw our just yesterday end up? In the recycling sent to a local recycle plant or maybe just thrown into a local landfill where it will sit for the next millennia? Would you have ever thought it ends up in a plant in India where it is neither recycled nor thrown into a landfill? Instead some of our local recyclables are transported across the ocean into foreign countries where it is left for them to handle. This video expands on the issue of single use plastic bottles and the reality of what the water inside of them is and where the trash really goes. Check out this video to educate yourself and others about if it is really worth it financially or environmentally worth it to purchase those single use bottles of filtered tap water.
