President Obama in the Everglades

As many of you know, I love the Everglades. I visited many years ago but I still keep them in my heart. Everglades is one of the biggest world wetland.
Nive to see that President Obama pass his World Earth Day in the Everglades, where Florida is affected by the climate change... the sea level is raising too much!

Seven Billion Dreams. One Planet. Consume with Care. WED 2015


My idea for the WED 2015 blog competition start from the original WED theme: 

Seven Billion Dreams. 
One Planet. 
Consume with Care.


My WED 2015 theme this year is therefore "Seven Billion Drops. One Big Oceans. Consume Water with Care." Water is moving without planetary boundaries and is the most promising strategy matter for ensuring a healthy future. Human prosperity need free water access and need safe water. Living sustainably is about doing more and better with less, but humans, animals and plants need water for their life. It is about knowing that rising rates of water uses are not good and the environmental impacts that occur in our planet are often driven by a not necessary needs of economic growth.

The WED theme this year is therefore "Seven Billion Dreams. One Planet. Consume with Care." Living within planetary boundaries is the most promising strategy for ensuring a healthy future. Human prosperity need not cost the earth. Living sustainably is about doing more and better with less. It is about knowing that rising rates of natural resource use and the environmental impacts that occur are not a necessary by-product of economic growth.
