My Blog Is Carbon Neutral

Has you done anything in helping mother Earth to stay healthy? Everyone should take some action in helping out the mother nature, be it via blog or personally. Recently, I read a blog about my blog is carbon neutral. Do you ever had any idea how to make your blog carbon neutral? In todays world, everything that we do will contribute into damaging this mother nature. As a blogger, we can help a little by spreading the news of the little effort of saving the nature. We can start by spreading the news about Arbor Day Foundation. This foundation would plan a tree for each blog domain that wrotes about them. Isn't this great?

There's a lot of people that time and flags are everywhere the area. So, out of curiousity, we stop and have a look at what is going on. Although I'm Christian, I do believe that there's no harm in knowing other religions activities and practices, right? Before I got there, I have a feeling that it is about walking through burning coal. My instinct proof it right when I saw a long stretch of ready pathway with a red cloth on top of it. Anyway, I waited for almost one hour. First, some members of the temple pass through the pathway, carrying a flag, each have different colors. Then, I heard an announcement calling all foster children and foster grandchildren to enter the temple. Hhhmmmm.... After about 15 minutes, all of them came out again and this time, they carry a man out. This man sat on a cha
