Impact:2012

Is this the end ?

Hello again. Good morning, afternoon, evening, night or whatever the time you think it is. Straight to the point, I want to say what I think.

The movie "2012" had been successful in its quest for money,but what about its main mission--to tell people the end is near and we have to fight it?

Before this, some books and people had been trying to tell us that the Mayan calendar ends on 2012-12-21, but they didn't go far.After a giant movie, the globe knows about it. But now, a few months later after the release, this is what I got:

What do you think about 2012?
Oh!You mean that movie!

Oh my goodness! Most people only remember the movie! In their minds, they remember the intense earthquakes, the great waves and etc.,but they have put away the message the director had been trying to tell!

Ask anyone on Earth, they can tell you that the Mayans, a mysterious tribe, have "predicted" the end of the world. But what do they think about it? Some think the director is just using this topic to fill up his bank account, some think that it might happen, some don't care at all, and some believe in the story and try their best to live their desired lives.

Actually, many do not know that Nostradamus, the great prophet, predicted that the world ends in 3797. Some books mentioned it, but certainly not the internet.Unlike the Mayans that ended their calendar on 2012-12-21, he made it clear as a PREDICTION. Are the Mayans or Nostradamus wrong? Is 3797 the end for the survivors of 2012?Is it the end for the whole universe? That, that and that, is not important. The important thing is:ARE WE GOING TO LET THEM WITH THEIR CALENDAR OR TONGUE DECIDE OUR FATE ? Of course not! When we board a plane, our lives depend on the pilot. When we ride a taxi, our lives depend on the driver. When it comes to OUR fate, we decide it ourselves, not them with their calendar or tongue. If we start now our efforts to save the Earth, we may be able to extend the time we have.(Like the American President in "2012" said,"Make time.")Whatever happens, we must try our best to save the environment, no matter what.

While you are reading this article, the environment is breaking down. Earthquakes, tsunamis, hurricanes, El Ninos,La Ninas...all of these, are happening over the globe with increasing frequency and violence.

It suddenly occured to me that the end of days may not come suddenly as expected by many. The environment had been warning us all the time and it is now punishing us for our ignorance, taking more and more lives. Perhaps the end of days is a slow massacre.

Who knows how the world will end, slow or fast? Maybe the end of days won't come from Earth itself, like the movie suggests, but from us ourselves. Maybe a nuclear war will end all. Maybe a black hole will swallow Earth. Maybe some bomb genius will be foolish for a second and test a devastating bomb on Earth. Maybe Terminators or aliens will reign over us. Who knows?

We, humans, may not be the leading species in the universe, but we certainly are manipulating the environment. It is our fault that natural disasters keep happening, and it IS our job to put the environment back again.

Folks, please contribute to the Earth and save the environment. Remember, dear Earthlings, that we control our own fate.
