Even though I am excited to head back to America and sleep
in my own bed instead of the floor, and see all of the friends I know so well;
I am sad to leave this new little family that I’ve found. This past week has
been so exciting and jam packed with activities. I learned so much from the
people at CEDO about the importance of conserving our planets aquatic life and
habitat.
Humans don’t realize how big of an impact small changes to
the ocean can have on the future of our planet most likely because there is too
much to grasp, and not enough people actually take the time to learn about it.
With the rate our population is growing we really need to focus on
sustainability before Wall-e becomes our destiny rather than a cute little
cartoon.
Things the average person knows very little about are in
harms way due to our naïve outlook on the world. Staying here has really opened
my eyes to the arrogance and selfishness of the human race and what I would
like to take with me from this experience, is to try and make people more
aware. Everything has to happen one step at a time, and anyone can make a
difference. I don’t want to be just another uninformed trash dispenser just
trying to get ahead. I’d like to be the informer.
Peace. Love. & Sustainability!
