This is something to help you save the planet!
This is called Reduce,Reuse,Recycle

WATER
- - It is very ironic that the world is surrounded by water and only 2.5% of it is fresh water and a fraction of it is accessible.
- - We may face serious water problems, if we will not use our water supply well.
- - The summit endorses “More crop per crop” mentality, an approach which is about efficient irrigation technique and planting crop varieties that need less water
That only thing that you can do is to used less water! please if you use less water in the future it will be more fresh water!
ENERGY AND CLIMATE
- - Power demands of developing countries are expected to grow by 2.5% annually. If those demand are not provided reliance on burning fossil fuels (gas, oil and coal) might be an alternative, if this happens carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases will be produced in our atmosphere, a scenario that will promote global warming paving the way for flooding in lowland areas (because of the rise of sea level and melting of icebergs in the north and south poles), powerful storms, droughts that could lead to famine, climate change and acid rain. A haze which is also known as “Asian Brown Cloud” about 3 kilometers thick, is assumed to be the cause of thousands of deaths in South Asian region last 2001.
- - Immediate concern Is the heavy pollution, because of over reliance with fossil fuels.
BIODIVERSITY
- - More than 11,000 species of animals and plants are threatened to extinction, one third of our corals reefs are expected to disappear after 30 years and areas covered with forests across the planet will continue to decrease each year. Many species of animals that will disappear in the coming years are source of food and medicine for humans. Once a part of the ecosystem is sliced for human habitation and/or farming, expect chain reaction to take place, when you upset the balance of nature you are as well harming some areas you don’t want to disturb.
POPULATION AND HEALTH
- - In Asia the growth rate is projected to be slow in the coming years.
- - In parts of the world where poverty is prevalent, like for instance in Africa, diseases like AIDS, malaria and cholera are widely experienced and causes deaths. In the worldwide level at least 68 million are expected to die of AIDS by 2020, a bulk of these which is around 55 million will come from the Sub-Saharan region in Africa.
- - Access to family planning and health care for youths and women will be given importance.
FOOD
- - Whipping out and erecting agricultural policies Is one of the core part of the Sustainable Development.
- - Planting and replanting the same crops, reliance to pest control and slash-burn method of farming (we call this as “kaingin” in Philippines) degrades the nutrient contents of the soil and making them vulnerable to pests.
- - Better crop rotation and irrigation is urged to be implemented across the planet to guarantee good yield as far as farmers are concerned.
- - Different research organizations in the world has developed better varieties of corn, cassava, and potato. These achievements must be emulated by other countries .
