With that in mind, it is no wonder that more and more people are focusing their energy in developing newer alternative energy source that could help address some of the issues that fossil fuels are bring, such as the rising temperature. Alternative energy source are cleaner and is a better and cheaper solution for those facing a shortage of oil as they are renewable as well.

Although it is still at it’s infancy stage, it should not stop us from making the changes in to the newer form of power as there are more than only one form of energy which could collectively make up for the lack of potential to generate enough power to entirely replace our traditional fuels.

The various energy forms are solar, wave, wind, hydro and even geothermal that are unlike traditional fossil fuels, coal and nuclear power plant, it does not emits harmful byproducts to the environment and contribute even further to global warming.

Do bear in mind that ultimately, coal power plant are still releasing a huge amount of carbon dioxide in our air and is one of the top contributing factor to the warming of the earth. Just imagine that there are about 50,000 plants all around the world right now!

I would like to quickly point out the effects of nuclear power plant, if you remember Chernobyl you’ll have an idea of how deadly it can be. Although unlike the coal power plants which emits harmful byproduct to the atmosphere, inappropriate or wrongly techniques used to dispose those spent power rods can easily cause a meltdown of the plant! Chernobyl today are also known as ghost town, quite rightly so given that there are still fatal radioactive materials lingering in the air, and up to hundreds of miles away.

On the other hand, using green energy sources may requires much less maintenance than other form of energy source, not to mention that most of it’s energy are generated from the earth itself, maybe this is a sign from mother earth telling us to use it’s energy instead?

Time is indeed, running out in terms of saving our planet. With every passing year, our global temperature is soaring, therefore the time is now for us to make a difference in the way we generate, use, and recycle energies. Choose to save our environment and help preserve it for our next generation before it’s too late.

Of course I had known that I should do this for some time, but…  My problem was that the grocery stores all sell bags (at very low prices) with their advertising on them.  Well, I regularly shop at three different stores.  I don’t want to go into one store with bags from another store.  And I certainly don’t want to carry three sets of bags!  But in this blog, the author gave the addresses of websites that sell reusable bags without advertising from my local grocery stores. That plus the offer of the free bag was enough to push me off the fence. So after a little research, I bought 10 bags from Bags on the Run for about $25. Plus I got the one free bag for promising to go green.

When the bags arrived, my kids were thrilled.  It’s not easy to do something right in the eyes of your teenagers, so I considered this a major victory.

But the first time I went to the store, I forgot and left the bags in the car.  This isn’t going to be easy. Old habits die hard. But tonight I stopped at the store for ‘just a few things’ and I remembered the bags. They’re bigger than plastic grocery bags and they hold their shape better. There’s a flat panel at the bottom that helps. The cashier and the box person didn’t look twice, so I must not be the only person skipping the plastic. So I’m on my way to going green – very slowly.

And I’ll never tell my kids that when I worked at the grocery store 100 years ago I used to double bag heavy groceries – in paper.
