- About Me:
- Greetings my fellow earth savers, my name is LaShun Lightfoot. I am a student at The University of The District of Columbia. My major is nursing. Not only will I save lives but I will help save the earth as well. As a health care professional, I think recycling medical equipment and materials will lead to better research as well as saving money. I think recycling is an excellent idea. It not only saves trees, but it also helps in other areas of our lives. I love the outdoors, traveling, cooking and many other wonderful things that our beautiful earth has to offer. Let’s all do our part to keep it that way. We can all do it; we are just one recycle away! I think it is very important to recycling. It eliminates the build-up of garbage, saving money, it also teaches our children how to care about not only the big things, but the things that seem so little, but are actually huge. It has a great impact in everything that we go on in world. Ask yourself, are you doing your part?

My photos are a calogde of beautiful African flowers. They are all shapes, sizes, and the colors are extremely enchanting. I have a friend who is a Native African who says the scents of African flowers are so vigo rating. For example, he says the hibiscus flower smells like sweet honey and the African dandy-line smells like cotton candy. To grow these beautiful flowers we will need flower seeds, planting soil, fertilizer and plenty of water. In order for us to continue to produce beautiful flowers such as these and others will have to start doing things differently. If not these flowers will be a thing of the past. Recycling has something to do with almost everything in our everyday life.
The wonderful wild life:
This video clip shows us beautiful creatures that share our earth with us. Some are old some are young, some are huge some are small. However, they all deserve a chance. They all look like they are so happy, free and extremely interjected. Just looking at all of the love that they display my heart hear them saying; I just want to live, I want to run, I want to swim, I want to swing from tree to tree, I want to fly South for vacation until winter is over. Most of all, I just want to share your world with you.
Pollution in the water:
Shocking video of items recovered from waters that humans leave behind. This video clearly shows how some fishermen come to fish and leave their trash behind. In some cases fishermen have free will to fish at no extra cost, other than what they bring with them. The only bad thing is they don't all take what they bring with them. Leaving their hooks, wires, etc. behind is very harmful. It is decapitating, badly injuring and in some cases killing some of our birds and marine animals.
Water shortage:
It has been estimated that by 2013, 36 states anticipate water shortage . The world is extremely huge, with trillions of people. Each individual should drink at least 8 ounces of water a day. If you had a household of 4 people and you all drank 8-8 ounces glasses of water a day, everyday. That is 12,376 ounces a water in one year for one household. Considering the amount of people there are in the world, along with the amount of water we should drink, baths that we take, the use of water to prepare meals etc., we can not afford a water shortage. Next time you turn on the water think first. Our world depends on it...
