Pollution Vs Greener pastures

Being in the Construction industry, I see a lot of things that we need to improve for the environment, It might sound ironic being a construction Contractor speaking about the environment. However, yes we need to improve the pollution issue, this is the most fundamental one that we need to work on I believe, so we enjoy our lives better.

At present we have a lot of vehicles, we cannot do nothing about this, we cannot order the population when they can use they vehicles, but we can incentivize Euro 6 for trucks, low emission cars and battery powered. Also we can do Grants for energy efficiency in new buildings to reduce heating and power usage by keeping our homes and properties hotter in winter and colder in Summer. These grants are already established and active, I believe that the authorities they need to make this accessible all year round and not in seasonable fashion.

Our country has its own resources that might other countries strive to have them, we have the sea that is everywhere around the island, we have the wind that is always at some point windy and finally we have the Sun. If we harness these in an efficient way, I believe that we will be more an environmentally friendly country.

Further, we need more green parks to enjoy, relax and spend time with our loved ones, also we need to whined down form our hectic lives and spend more time outdoors and enjoy our beautiful country.
