Environmentally Responsible


Environmentally Responsible


Laura and Camila, were two best friends since birth that always played and were together  at school. One day, the science teacher asked the classroom to pair up and obviously Laura and Camila took sides on the same team, but the teacher said that they needed to design a presentation about climate change and Laura always cared about the environment; despite everything,  Camila didn’t care at all, so Laura told Camila that she needed to investigate about the damage that waste water makes to it.

The next day, they paired up again and Laura asked Camila what she investigated about; however, Camila told Laura that she didn’t do it at all because that topic was stupid. Laura got mad because she thought the topic was very important, but she relaxed and explained the importance that saving water makes to the planet, though Camila didn’t listen to her; therefore, Laura avoided to fight and decided to change her topic ,so she asked Camila to research about deforestation, but the same thing happened: she didn’t care at all.

Laura was so upset; even though, she decided to change her topic again to the damage caused on the ocean by throwing garbage, but guess what happened?... Camila said again that those things were not real, as a result, she didn’t do anything at all.
What Camila didn’t know was that Laura was a fairy and she had the power to see the world in the future, so she made the decision to take Camila to an adventure to see how the world would look if people didn’t make any change.
When they arrived, Camila got very scared because everything was very ugly, the fishes were dead, there were no forests nor water.

Camila learned that she needed to take care of the environment because maybe the bad things don’t occur immediately, but they might become real in a close future.
