MALLEN new blog on (Mining)
Mining-I care about mining to a certain extent, i know i should care alot more. I guess i need more knowledge on the subject. There are so many impacts that mining has it really surprized me. I feel there should be something done, but i dont know how to really get started. I feel there's alot of could do with the right instructions and guidance to make a huge impact. Im sure im not the only one who thinks that im only 22 with no experience in the field but i have a huge heart to want to do this something to help. The community needs to know how it will affect their everyday life and make it sound like it is happening right now because if its happening right now and will effect the way people live their life they will want to help out on the issue. People are willing to let the issue go unless they see or hear the impact is going to hit hard and fast. I think the community should be in on where the waste should go. I have no idea where to put the waste but we shoulnt be dumping it into our water thats for sure. Where to go from here is the question? I dont have all the anwsers, but would like to make a difference anyway i could.

Save which species first?
Which species to save?
Its hard to say because the way god created the food chains and food webs everything has a purpose and special "niche,"that the critter or organism helps out with in the survival of life. That he created a perfect system that requires balance management. I guess it's just easier to get people to respond to the "cute and cuddly teddy bear like animals," rather than saving bugs. I think its mostly because a lot of organizations go after peoples emotions to hit a nerve which helps result in the men and women to act in a more humane manner. I'm guilty of these accusation's as well. I know i would be more compelled to save a rare and beautiful snow leopard rather than the "mosquito." I'm sure (on the average) most people would fall into the same category. I think it is our responsibility to manage the species and to help keep balance as much as we can because were helping destroy it as well.
Its all about be accountable for one's actions, looking at other perspectives, and to take other people and species into consideration. I believe the society needs to be more educated on these issues and how we live affects the earth. In the U.S we need more awareness and updated on what animals needed help saving,why, and what they do for the ecosystem. People need to know the consequences of their actions or what could happen if we all don't care.
I also think it should be taught in all grades in school, so children know the their actions make a difference. I believe as of right now our society is considered "uneducated," about these issues and more should be done. Here's the real answer with a better understand of the situations and educated on the subject at hand, it will be easier to take the right steps forward into a better and more sustainable future.
