Transcript

Earth Day by Jessica Jarrard wives | April 22, 2005 marks the 35" anniversary of Earth Day. It is hard not to appreciate nature when living in a place like Cullowhee. Western North Carolina is a unique and beautiful place that is dear to many of us here at WCU. Earth Day gives us all a chance to sit back and look at what all this area has to offer. Luckily, it is on a Friday this year, which gives you just another reason to celebrate! Upon arriving at WCU, | was in awe of its beauty. When | got out of the car for my tour of the campus, it was a perfect Spring day. The sky was a deep blue, and the flowers on the trees in the HFR parking lot were in full bloom. It was the third college campus | had visited and was by far the prettiest. lam certainly not the only one who feels that way. Many students here will tell you Cullowhee is in the middle of nowhere because there are no strip malls, or any strip clubs for that matter. Instead of offering urban commodities, WNC has many other things to offer. While this area is a little more remote than Charlotte or Raleigh, this area still gets quite a bit of traffic from locals, students, faculty, parents, and of course...tourists. What is it that makes this area so great? What is so wonderful about the Smoky Mountain National Park that makes it the most visited national park in the country? Why is the Blue Ridge Parkway often bumper to bumper in the fall? The answer is simple: beauty. WNC is unlike any other part of NC. While this area may seem cleaner than most areas of the state, WNC has its fair share of pollution. This pollution is caused for a variety of reasons. Since Smoky Mountain National Park is so popular, many people drive through here every year to see the leaves. This causes pollution. When people use the woods or the streams as a trash can instead of waiting until In a blind taste test between Subway and Montagues Deli, Montagues received over 62% of the votes!* Come taste the difference for yourself at Dodsons Cyber Caf or the UC Food court. *taste test conducted on March 17, 2005 in Dodsons lobby. ives us a chance to appreciat newsmagazine er they find a place to properly dispose of their garbage, pollution is created. As you drive along the Tuck, remnants of the flood are still there. Ever notice the plastic bags and bottles along the side of the bank and in the trees? Well, believe it or not, that trash was not thrown out there, but rather miles upstream. When the river flooded, it took all of the pollution from the ground, and the river and moved it. This year's Tuckaseegee River Clean- up is perhaps one of the most important, as there is much cleaning needed after the flood. Many see this area as a beautiful place, because it certainly is. However, with a little help from us, it can be even better. Have you ever driven along the Blue Ridge Parkway and noticed that many of the trees on the ridgelines are dead? That is caused predominantly by acid rain from areas outside of WNC. When the rain travels in the atmosphere, and comes down over the ridgelines, the bark breaks down opening it up to insects and parasites. Thi of pollution is much more difficult to get rid of than picking up trash Some types of pollution are easier to avoid than others. I'm not suggesting that you stop driving your car, and walk to Sylva every time you need to go grocery shopping. | am however suggesting that you be responsible, and think twice before you throw your soda can out the window. Instead, recycle it. WNC is a beautiful area, and a place many are proud to call home. It needs all of our help in order to maintain its beauty. On April 22, sit back and enjoy the mountains of WNC, and remember to do your part to keep them beautiful.
