A New Beginning of The End - 含苞欲放

This year, the weather in our globe is very un-predictable. One instance it is spring.

On another day is winter back again. With the weather changing dramatically, it is very easy for people to get sick & feel low on the emotional cycle.

I have been observing the plants' flower's boomming & their cycle of becoming fruit's. I found out that plant's are very much affected by the hot & cold ; especially it change between a single day of more than 20-40 degree F.

The Bees' are dying as well for the reason of too much disturbances from the cell phones frequencies according to some bio-scientists. I would like to comment that the dramatically change of the day & night temperature would have cause the death of the bees.

Thus, it would be more difficult for plants' to harvest fruits.

With these in mind. We have to think seriously about the effect of Global warming & to take action & rectified the situation now; before it is too late.

So Go Green...
