We are to blame.

Climate change is a very urgent and important topic. Climate change is a result including many factors. We as the people on this planet have been told that this climate change mostly is our fault. Partly because we have been using and still are using fossil fuels etc. Consequently we can see and notice e.g; the global warming, sea level change and glacier retreat. Although we know that we need to make great changes in our way of living. To prevent this climate change of getting any worse, we don`t. Why don`t we make more and greater changes in our life to prevent climate change?

First I think that people in general don`t know how to make this great changes for the environment. They don`t have the way figured out on have to do this changes. I think people in general for instance know that they should separate household waste and that they should use their cars as little as possible. In other words, we have the most logical answers to this specific change. Yet we need to learn more, we need to get answers on have to make bigger changes.

Second, I believe that we are very good at reducing our own significance. I think that most people say to them selves; how much difference can I make? In short, I dont think that most people understand their own significance in this specific topic. In fact many people don`t bother to make changes for the environment, since they don`t think it will make any difference. Even if they know have to. I know this because I have heard a lot of people saying this exact sentences.

Third I think that we in general are to lazy. All in all, I belive hat our own lazyness is the biggest reason on why we don`t make more changes to prevent climate change. We like our way to living and we want this sort of comfort which we have got used to. We want our cars, TVs, computers, holidays and everthing else which we consider as normal. Though we maybe should see it as luxuary.

Last of all I want to say that maybe there is no several reasons on why we don`t do more changes. Maybe there is only one, important reason. That reson would be our own lazyness. Since media has talked and written so much on this topic for so many years. We should be both blind and deaf if we didn`t know how to make changes for the envirinment. Furthermore reducing our own significance is just another way of being lazy. Our lazyness is therefor destroying our planet. We have no one else to blame than our selves and our unsuitable lazyness.

What TV is for me!

Do you have a TV? It is a question you never hear. Everyone, at least everyone in this country have a TV. Everyone watch TV and it has become a sort of furniture as common as having a sofa.

Yet I lived in an apartment in Karlstad for a year without any TV. Therefor could I never watch TV, series or movies. Instead I read books, painted, wrote and etc. This was a life I never had lived before and probably never will live again.

Still I am not to fond of watching TV. This for several reasons. Firstly I believe that TV can destroy our meaningfull relationships. Because if our boyfriends/husbands or wifes and our children as well as ourselfes would watch TV every evening, there would never be time to associate in a deeper meaning. There are to many familys living their life never knowing each other, never talking. I belive that with less TV time there would be more moments to sharish and to store in your memory.

Secondly I am a big fan of parlour games. Since TV time and parlour game time often collide this means that TV time usually wins. Consequently my parlour game evenings rarely arrives.

Finally I believe that TV make you lead a more sedentary life. In the time we all are living in. In this society we all are living in I dont think that this is something to strive for.

Children

There are so many children in the past and today that don´t have a secure and safe home. They don´t get the nurturing which they need and they never get to feel loved.

I believe that the most important thing for a child is a home, a real home where they can feel secure and loved. Without this they don´t get a childhood, they can´t be the children we all want them to be, playing and having fun with friends.

In some homes everything is misery, drinking, drugs, beating, screaming and sex. In their world it doesn´t exist any embraising hugs or fairytales with happy endings. I think that it is our responsibility as adults and more important as teachers. To keep our eyes open and don´t look the other way when we see the signals.

When thinking of these children, that lives this kind of lives. Other things like too much computer time or bad television programmes don´t seems to be a big problem anymore.
