   Green Living (Finland No.1 Greenest Country: Philippines No. 87))

   You Can Always Get Greener
   Even the cleanest countries have serious environmental problems. Top-ranked Finland wins high marks for air and water quality, a low incidence of infant disease, and how well it protects citizens from water pollution and natural disasters. But the country also produces an above-average amount of greenhouse gases, has a large ecological footprint (the mass of land and water needed to sustain the national level of consumption) and contributes  significantly to its region’s environ-
   mental woes.

   The reason: Finland has the highest industrial-energy consumption rate of all five Nordic countries, due largely to its reliance on the fuel-intensive forestry and quarry industries.

   Colder winters and lower rainfall in recent years have also had an impact, forcing cuts in the production of hydroelectricity and boosting – by 15 per cent since 2005 – the national appetite for fossil fuels, a major source of greenhouse gases.

   A Move to Improve To get greener, countries must do more to capitalise on national strengths. Finland, among the world’s largest exporters of wind-power technology, produces less than one per cent of its own electricity via wind power, despite average coastal wind speeds of 24 km/h, 50 per cent stronger than those in the ”Windy City” Chicago.

   Don’t Stop Thinking About Tomorrow 
   On June 22, 1969, the Cuyahoga River in Cleveland, Ohio, caught fire, apparently after sparks from a train ignited a surface oil slick. No-one was injured, and the blaze caused only about $50,000 worth of property damage. Still, the fire had a huge impact as it began focusing attention on environmental issues in the United States. Three years later, the Clean Water Act was enacted, and in time, other aggressive steps were taken to improve the quality of the country’s air and water. It’s worked. Today people fish and canoe on big stretches of the Cuyahoga River.

   Unfortunately, as shown by the United States’ ranking on our list (No. 23), there’s still plenty of cleanup work to be done. Again, greenhouse gases are a major culprit. In 2004, per capita carbon dioxide emissions were nearly five times the worldwide per capita figure. And it’s a trend headed in the wrong direction: Total carbon dioxide emissions grew by 22 per cent between 1990 and 2005.

   A Move to Improve To fight air pollution, the US Congress boosted the average fuel economy standard for passenger cars from 18 mpg to 27.5 mpg between 1978 and 1985. It hasn’t risen since. That’s likely to change, but the US government should do more to improve energy efficiency, such as offering greater incentives for owners of alternative-fuel vehicles.

   Save the Forests and the Trees  
   In developed nations, people tend to cluster in cities and suburbs, concentrating pollution in those areas. When rural swaths are publicly owned and protected against development, they become ”green moats” – buffers against the harmful effects of ”brown cities.” Canada (No. 11) exemplifies this. While wild forests are largely disappearing in most developed nations, they still thrive in Canada. Their presence helps explain why the country rates well overall for clean water and air, despite a densely populated southern tier where cities like Montreal contribute to sulphur dioxide emissions that are nearly double the average in similar countries – and that feed an ongoing acid rain problem.

   A Move to Improve Other countries should follow Canada’s lead and preserve what’s left of their pristine wilderness. Doing so will help offset the harmful effects of urban pollution.

   Manage Progress for the Benefit of All  
   It’s an inescapable fact: People living in affluent countries tend to be better educated, enjoy a higher standard of living, live longer lives and have a brighter future. The downside: Their material wealth results in a much larger carbon footprint.

   Happily, their affluence and education makes people who live in these countries more likely to be aware and active when it comes to doing something about that footprint. Consider Norway (No. 3), which is party to more than 40 international environmental accords. It’s no coincidence that nearly all Norwegian children graduate from secondary school.

   A Move to Improve It’s in the interest of all countries for each one of them to gear public policy toward developing an informed citizenry. The goal should be an engaged, educated public that can act as a powerful antidote to environmental destruction.

   Turn Things Around While There’s Still Time 
   How great is the potential environmental impact of China (No. 84) on the rest of the world? Consider: If its car-ownership rate matched that of the United States, one billion cars would be on China’s roads. That would translate into total gas consumption of 1970 billion litres per year – nearly half the current world use. 

   But setting aside that hypothetical, the sheer size of China’s population and the explosive growth of its modern economy are creating significant environmental pressures. For instance, in Beijing today, the level of one type of particularly harmful air pollution is more than four times the level in New York City.

   There are signs the Chinese government is taking environmental problems seriously. Next year’s Summer Olympics in Beijing could be a major turning point. Following the lead of South Korea (No. 35), which made a major effort to clean up Seoul before the 1988 Summer Games, China has announced a number of ambitious green goals, including cutting the use of coal in half, eliminating 200 manufacturing plants in the Beijing suburbs and lowering sulphur levels in gasoline. The challenge now is hitting those targets.

   A Move to Improve Global environmental management requires global cooperation. That means more developed nations need to move more quickly in sharing with China emerging technologies that can be used to develop clean, alternative energy.

    The Project formulated 6 STEPS TO RESPONSIBLE TRAVEL in order to inform and give knowledge to the travelers the importance of responsible travelling.. Here are the ways to do the steps:The Project formulated 6 STEPS TO RESPONSIBLE TRAVEL in order to inform and give knowledge to the travelers the importance of responsible travelling.. Here are the ways to do the steps:

    1. RESEARCH YOUR DESTINATION

    Traveling is best enjoyed when you have prior knowledge of the things, places, and activities that await you when you reach your destination. Not only will it keep your trip a positive and enlightening experience, it will also keep you safe.

    2. RECOGNIZE RULES

    Observe national and local laws and regulations.  You are a guest. Respect the law, the rules (both written and unwritten), and the customs of the destination. If flash photography is prohibited, then don’t do it. If touching animals and plants are prohibited, then don’t do it. If swimming is prohibited, then don’t do it. There’s a reason laws are passed and rules are made, and it is your obligation to follow them. 

    3. REDUCE WASTE

    Minimize waste by reusing. Reuse. Refrain from using plastic and other disposable materials during your trip. Bring your own tumblers and food containers. Plastic and styrofoam plates, cups, and utensils are non-biodegradable — and ugly, too. Whatever you bring to the beach, you take with you when you leave. Dispose of your garbage properly.

    4.RESPECT WILDLIFE

    Kill nothing but time. Take nothing but photos.  Respect wildlife and their natural habitats. Do not step on, touch, or remove any items from the reef, including corals. Do not pick up a starfish only to leave it dry on the sand. The beach is part of a network of ecosystems and a web of life. Souvenirs? Photos are the best and cheapest mementos. If you really want a souvenir, purchase products that are NOT made using threatened or endangered plants or animals.

    5. REPORT ILLEGAL ACTIVITIES

    Report any illegal activity you encounter during your trip. A dolphin being slaughtered? Report. Corals being harvested? Report. Dynamite fishing? Report. Open your eyes and take action.

    6. REPOST AND RETWEET

    Share your experience! Write about your trip on your blog and share photos with friends and network via your social media accounts (Facebook, Twitter, Tumblr, Instagrm, etc) to encourage them to have the same positive experience. Recommend the travel agency, hotel, or attraction that you believe has good policies on sustainable tourism. Share these 6 steps to help in raising awareness about responsible travel.

    and there’s one thing….

    HAPPY RESPONSIBLE ENVIRONMENT-FRIENDLY  TRAVELLING!!
