more story of stuff
Another thing that stood out to me was the information about how fast we are using up our earths natural resources. We are already overexploiting these resources and if we keep going at the rate we are now, we will need at least another 3 earths to support us, which is a scary thought because obviously we only have the one! So what will happen if we continue this consumption rate? Even if everyone in the world starts recycling we can never get back to a where we started, too much damage to our earth has already been done!

I agree with you Kate on your point about only having one earth and yet we are using it up so fast, at the rate of three earths. Its a scary idea. Will there be a earth for our future generations? At this rate No! And we as consumers can do something about that now, everybody recycling would be a good starting point. Maybe everyone taking that one small step to be sustainable will be one giant step for the world/earth as a whole. The really scary thing is that it is too late!
