So, Earth Day. I know that a lot of people don't see the purpose of Earth Day, especially now that we're in high school and none of the teachers (besides, apparently, Mr. Grdinic) make a big deal about it. I'm not sure where I stand; I know that we should care about the earth, especially on Earth Day, but many of us don't.
The most I thought about Earth Day on Earth Day was when I saw the Google home page, which looked remarkable. That's basically all that mattered to me, terrible as it sounds. I suppose that Earth Day is a bit of a waste; I think that people should be "green" everyday, not just one day of the year. It's not like people are made aware of the earth and its problems on Earth Day. Unless everyone watches The Inconvenient Truth simultaneously, nobody is really learning anything about the earth. However, I did catch that Nickelodean was doing a BLACKOUT, during which you were supposed to turn off your lights and stuff, on Earth Day, which I thought was nice. I didn't participate, obviously, but it was the thought that counted, right?
No. You see, we all have the wrong mentality. Because we're all spoiled and don't care about the world. Or maybe that's just us in the Bubble. I don't know, I just know that I don't care, and that I should care, and hope I'm not the only one who feels that way...
