Stop Walking Backwards!
The way our world is going now, Earth will probably self destruct in the next twenty years. Global Warming will flood crops causing starvation. Oil will run out and we will still be dependent on it. War will break out over an issue like invading other countries to try and fix things. Not a pretty future, right? Well, our blog is devoted to attempting to prevent that. Here’s how we do it:
- No fluff: We package up important information and relay it to you in a simple but detailed way. No extra fluff, only the good stuff.
- Never one-sided: When we start a debate, we involve you AND we attack the issue from all sides. Nothing is ever one sided here.
- Ideas: that is the way to fix everything! Come up with great ideas to help our world. This is an idea sharing network, encouraging people with good ideas and helping people come up with their own.
- Quirky writers: who doesn’t like witty writers dishing out facts and opinions in a detailed, creative way? Our staff of writers keep content fresh and different.
So there you have it- our brilliant plan. If this is your first time visiting, please check out the ‘About’ page. Want to get instant updates from us? Subscribe to our feed at thenearbyfuture.com/feed So read on, form your own opinions, and help the world help itself. Everything on here has the potential to really make a difference. Make the ticking of the clock slow down- help save the world. (As corny as it sounds, it’s true!)

wow!
Wow what, Sky?
yea what are we wowing at?
Hey! I agree with the points you made. We need to start to step up! I was browsing through a bunch of green websites and blogs and I came across yours and found it very interesting. There are a bunch of others I like too, like the daily green, ecorazzi and earthlab.com. I especially like EarthLab.com’s carbon calculator (http://www.earthlab.com/signupprofile/). I find it really easy to use (it doesn’t make me feel guilty after I take it). Are there any others you would recommend? Can you drop me a link to your favorites (let me know if they are the same as mine).
oh wow! i went to that earth lab and my ECP score was 751..is that bad? I know nothing about the environment ..i never really cared either and will probably never become like Rika but it sounded fun
Adrian- I really like http://www.thegreenguide.com, and The Green Guide magazine. As for blogs, I don’t really have a favorite. I’m glad you found our blog interesting, and thanks for commenting!
