                Science, a word short but meaningful. Science itself has many categories which have different functions in economic and social lives of people. They say, Science is something to change our lives.
                People in the early years have lived their life simply natural. They had nothing but mere natural resources all around them; and as they lived throughout their years, they used science as knowledge to make their lives easier. They made fire out of wood, and houses of out of bare rocks, and even food out of plants. Science has been present ever since the beginning.
                As we travel through the centuries after Stone Age, technology was slowly created. Technology came from science itself. At first, there were people who were brilliantly interested in Science that they made something useful out of something sophisticatedly natural. These useful things have been improved throughout the years and some are still currently improving. These things made a change to the life of each individual. Most are still being used in the present time.
                Nowadays, there has been many huge problems in our environment. We have lack of natural resources, mineral, food and water shortage and even land, water, air pollutions. And, yes these problems are due to man’s wrong doings, and the solution must also come from our own minds. Or else, we will all suffer and die just because of these environmental problems that result the different shortages.
                As for now, the only solution we can see is the sustaining of minerals. We all know that minerals come from mountains, seas, or even valleys. How could we help? Will this work? Certainly not. Well, not yet. The mountains are known to suffer from kaingin system and deforestation. Seas suffer from Red tide and fish kills. Even valleys and plains in the forest are turned to subdivisions and are used for housing projects. Where will we get mineral sources now? And of these all happen we will suffer too like El Niño and la Niña phenomena, earthquakes, landslides and more.
                This will not work, eventually. But, we can save this. Save mountains, valleys and plains through reforestation. Let us Reuse, Reduce and Recycle. Let us think about it. Man made this, man destroyed it, and man should save and fix it or else man dies because of it.
                Science is the one who got us into this world of new technology; science is the cause of man’s behavior. Therefore, science is the solution. Think about it. If you still can’t realize, then think twice. You might want to think about the future generation. Make a change.
