Introduction Welcome to the Circle of Eco-Friendship! We warmly welcome you to our special circle of friendship with the environment, with the Earth. The goal of creating this webpage is to spread awareness of the environmental issues that have been harming earth and are starting to harm us now. We are positive that we can deliver our thoughts and concerns about the ecological issues and how to preserve and improve our environment. We are aiming towards a greener lifestyle, toward a Green Future!Being eco-friendly involves you and us, and the rest of the people; no one is left out! We all bear responsibility to care for our mother Earth. Being eco-friendly is being nice to the environment, picking up after yourself, and following the ecological rules of the R's. Being eco-friendly will benefit us in unimaginable ways! Take for instance our health, with our society living among many fast food restaurants and canned products, which are scientifically proved to be harmful; we seem to not notice other healthier alternatives. We should start practicing healthier habits to not only care for our body but also to the environment. Why not enjoy the nutritious and enriching food that the environment naturally provides for us? Buy or even plant veggies! You will be providing healthy food and oxygen to yourself and give life and hope to the environment. Turning the electric power off whenever any electronic device is not in use can prevent a hole in our pocket. The electric power has been the most important technology ever invented or discovered in human history, it is hard for us to live without it. However, it is also hard on us to live with it. Its production is harmful to us as proposed by the Environmental Protection Agency, they declared that the heating of Earth's climate from fossil fuel use threatens human health and the environment . We depend on the burning of the fossil fuels to create energy, which produces greenhouse gasses such as carbon dioxide; and consequently contributing to global warming. Therefore, we should encourage the greener ways to produce safer and renewable energy such as solar, water, wind, and biofuel energy alternatives. It will surely help on not only our wallet, but our health and the Earth's health as well. The plenty of ways we can carry on a greener life style seem very bright, and will be a reality if we do simple things like recycling and conserving little by little, contributing to big changes. Also, you will also feel the satisfaction of having done something good and important, beneficial and eco-logical.
