CLIMATE CHANGE RELATED TO MANGROVE PLANTING

Global Warming is the effect of what people had done in their everyday living. But some of us really don’t know that it existed now especially those who abused the nature that could save our lives. It can easily be seen by our naked eye and so we should and immediately plan to solve these cases.

Mangroves are one aid to help climate change in exchange with fresh and clean air which we need as humans. We don’t know that these mangroves are the habitats of fishes in our seas which is also being consumed by people. In addition to that, they can also be an absorbent of unwanted gases in our surroundings like carbon dioxide (CO2). As students here in University of Bohol Day High School, planting mangroves is the best way to solve the problems regarding the use of air conditioners in every classrooms. Because it gives off CO2 then we only need a place to plant more of them. Then once we know how to and where to, we could be a model for some departments in this school and others may share it with other students especially who are using the kind of classrooms. And we might not know we could be the start of something new.

It is not easy to discover new things that will change the behavior of our climate instead it is easy to help the world stand for a better change. Let us help contribute the good things that mangroves will bring to us. Now is the time to plant mangrove trees to stay away from climate change…
