We have traveled so far…

Long time ago...

In 1768 Bangkok became the third capital city of Thailand.

The old tradition

is fading away…

Nearly 250 years later

Estimated over 1,191 buildings 305 are skyscrapers

in Bangkok alone.

And more are coming Estimated over 660,000 people use the BTS and MRT daily.

700,000 new cars were

sold in 2009 alone

Every development, every new improvement comes with a cost. - Air Pollution, Water Pollution, Waste Pollutions - Traffic Jam - High CO2 emission. - Major contribution to global warming What will happen to this major city?

There was a prediction that

within a few decades, Bangkok

because of global warming,

will be completely submerged.

Unusual Weathers

Abundant amount of rain Overflowing of Chao Phraya River

Early winter

Is this a sign to the Bangkok Residence, Thai people and so do all the human

races?

WE All are contributing to

Global Warming. Every thing we do releases

CO2 gas.

But

WE

Can still make a difference

GO GREEN

Safe HER before it’s too late…
