Save our plant

Only you part2

You said you would not do it again. But you did not tell me the truth.
You said I was the one you love. But I had to think how many people you have said to.

You said I could believe you from then, but you haven't told me even basic thing.

I was frustrated when I saw your words without logic.
I was frustrated to think I will hate you nor to forgive you.
I was frustrated when I thought we could be together.

I don't have strong heart to ignore your tear.
I want to close my ears to listen your stories.

I was destroyed because I love you.
I was destroyed because I could not forget you.

I was still thinking about you.

Only you

You are my world,

You are my lover, 

You are my friend,

You are my betrayer.

  

You are the one who give me energy.

You are the one who help me from trouble. 

You are the one who let me fight from depression. 

You are the one who give me a warm heart.

You are the one who I think smart. 

You are the one who break my heart.

You are the one who always smile at me. 

You are the one who leave me alone. 

You are the one who sent me no home. 

You are the one who I used to admire.

You are the one who end my smile. 

You are the one who give me nowhere to go. 

You are the one who I still love. 

Only You

Public volunteer is needed to save environment: commentary

Incentive may play some role in dealing with plastic bag overuse in Hong Kong. Last week, our class had done a survey of supermarkets to find out how many people are still using plastic carrier bags a year and a half after the introduction of the 50-cent-per-bag levy. Most people we asked during the survey said they don’t use them because they have to pay. This is good in a way: it has led, according to the government, to a 90 per cent drop in use of these bags. But I wonder how far people are willing to volunteer to save the environment when saving money is not part of it.

One negative thing we noticed was that many people still take the small transparent plastic bags, which are free. This small bag cannot be recycled nor reused them.

Does this mean we have to regulate everything? Supermarkets only charge for normal plastic bags and give away the small transparent ones without any limit. For sure those plastic bags will have an impact on the environment because they cannot be recycled nor reused them. Whether Hong Kong needs a levy on those small bags depend on the public.
