According to studies by scientists and environmentalists throughout the world, if we don't act soon, the polluting of our air, sea & land will not only affect and kill our birds, fish, animals, and plant life but will also destroy our food sources.
Unless we act now, the Earth will probably not be able to support human existence in about 50 years.
Our only hope is to educate young and old throughout the world that only humans can solve this problem.
We have a paradise, here on earth, that can't be found in any other galaxy. So to prevent more birds, fish, animals, and eventually humans from becoming extinct, we need to educate everyone why and how it's important to create a healthier planet for them and us.
My suggestion is to create a mandatory environmental studies curriculum in all schools and universities that help our youth appreciate nature and be aware of environmental problems.
The level of educational curriculums related to "Saving Our Planet" would be from basic knowledge in elementary schools to a master's degree. This would encourage more students to become environmental professionals who will be the future educators and guardians of our planet.
A suggestion would be to have weekly, one-hour, environmental study classes that featured local species. For example birds, animals, fish, plant & trees in Mexico & worldwide.
The idea would be to study 3 species in each of these categories per week with discussions between the teachers and students on what they have learned. The students can then share what they learned with their friends and families.
Ideally, the students and teachers would take a weekly field trip to a local park, forest, jungle, botanical garden, ocean, lake, or river excursion with a local environmental group or club that specializes in that species.
