Wild life preservation

So I had to write something for English Class, and the thing we wrote it was supposed to be our grade, so I decided to write about the wild life preservation, because the day I wrote that I actually saw a film about this subject, it was called "The last grizzly bear", it was a documentary and I cried, it was so beautiful this film that really inspired me and made me write this, here's my essay...

Tell me what do you think about this...

Wild life, environment, and animal kingdom; those three things really mean something to me, more than animals, water, rivers, and trees, those things mean to me, so much more than just that, they mean all the living creatures we’re surrounded by, all the amazing and intelligent, creatures that live near us, and we don’t even care about them, I know that there are many institutions these days that are trying to help preserving the life of our planet, but is that really enough?

I don’t really think so, I think that, if we try, then it would be easier to live surrounded by animals than surrounded by tall concrete buildings, instead, of beautiful trees, because a tree isn’t just a tree, it is more than that, it’s the home of living creatures, like bugs, or birds, or squirrels, and even raccoons, and if you cut one three, you’re actually, murdering, entire families, of these animals, I mean would it be nice for you, having someone in your house, destroying all your furniture, food, and who later will kill you and your family? Of course NOT, and that’s what we’re doing to those little animals, we’re destroying their house, but it isn’t only “their” house, it’s also, “our” home, but we haven’t realised that yet, and it’s an important thing to do, cause we shouldn’t keep doing it, but it seems that we’re insensible to feel the suffering these creatures, that aren’t ourselves, and why’s that?

Because, like Madonna said “we’re living in a material world”, a world where the only thing that matters, is the money you own, or how big is your house, and the way your dressing, the brand your buying, the things you eat, the car you drive, the pet you have, or what school your into; but it should be all the opposite thing, some people think and say, that they aren’t racist, but they are, without noticing, maybe, but they are, and they wouldn’t know, how to behave in the woods, cause all that they care for is the reception on their blackberry, and what was the last thing they wrote on Facebook; these people I’m talking about, includes everyone actually.

How dumb is to be surrounded by beautiful things and don’t even take a minute to appreciate them, to look at them, to be amazed, by the pretty things were surrounded by, all those birds, butterflies and dragonflies flying above our heads, all those bugs that walk besides our feet, all those plants, trees and flowers, that with their beautiful colours, would light up, our day, if we’d take a minute to look or a minute to walk with our head up, and not with our head down, like we always do…

I hope, that these things aren’t just a dream, I hope, we can make a change and be friendly to Earth, it would be so much easier to live like this, than to be constantly stressed by all the things that doesn’t really matter. I truly believe that it would be amazing, if we put a little piece of solidarity, in our home, and I’m not talking about keeping our house clean, I mean, if we start now, we can make a difference, it would be the beginning of something bigger than us, a change, that will be remarkable, and will be remembered and thanked by our grandchildren, our nephews, our brothers and sisters that in the near future they too will be living in our mother earth, our home.
