Andrew S. Knollman: Environmental Awareness!

While living in the year 2020, there are a variety of issues and concerns that an individual should be mindful about. Environmental Awareness, however, definitely should be one of those primary matters to be thoughtful of. By implementing a few simple actions within one’s daily routine, our planet may have the opportunity and potential to preserve our environment for future generations to come.

Although living in areas such as upstate and western New York, people can often forget about the fact that our planet’s ice caps are melting. By practicing simple actions, (such as turning off your unneeded lights at night), will not only help conserve energy, but will also help you save your money as well!

With the fall season upon us and the winter season approaching, now is the perfect time for people to become more conscious about their energy demands. By becoming more mindful about our home’s energy usage, this will help reduce the demand of energy needed from fossil fuels.

By forming an environmentally aware mindset, and developing environmentally beneficial habits, every individual’s collective efforts will dramatically help preserve our planet’s atmosphere. Along with our world’s ice caps melting, this is also causing our earth’s water levels to increase alarmingly.
