Glasses can be used as a remedy for short-sightedness. But what remedies are being offered when we act short-sightedly towards our environment? We tend to be short-sighted where the environment is concerned as we don’t see further than the end of our nose, and we do not reflect on the impact that our actions will have in the long run on mother earth. Environmental problems in today’s society are a hot issue because of the neglect of previous societies who acted short-sightedly towards their environment. Pollution of air, water and soil, global warming and deforestation are among the threats our environment is facing. According to Albert Einstein, “The environment is everything that isn’t me”, so to make a step towards a better environment, we have to look beyond the horizon and think environmental-friendly before we act.
