the day that all humans speak one common language world wide, is the day that maybe?? i think we could actually accomplish the impossible.. only then would i give the human race a benefite of a sliver of a doubt.. well i guess we're f****d
I ignore Earth Day. However, I do things to conserve water, electricity, and gasoline in order to save money. My electric water heater is set to 120 degrees, my windows have solar screens, I keep my AC coils clean, I take Navy showers, we use a top load HE clothes washer, when we needed to replace our TVs we went with LED, for small baking we use a toaster oven, and I drive softly wringing out 22.5 mpg with my V6 car's AC running in city driving from my 9 year old sedan. Wish I could cut grass with a reel mower but it doesn't work well in my yard. We always keep our trash in a trash can and pick up any trash that blows into our yard. We don't have curbside recycling but we recycle our newspapers by giving them to a friend who has pet birds. I recycle my magazines by donating them to the hospital ER waiting area. I gave up soda several years ago and now drink water from a filter water pitcher.
What grinds my gears about Earth Day are these celebrities who promote this stuff telling others how to live when it's an obvious "do as I say, not as I do" situation (except for Ed Begley Jr). Driving a Prius to a Hollywood awards show is meaningless if you flew your private jet to get there, your daily driver is a gas guzzling luxury sports car or SUV, your home is a huge mansion with heated swimming pool, or you own multiple mansion homes and have the utilities running all the time at all homes regardless if you're there or not. "Look, I decorated my home in bamboo because it's more environmentally friendly,...just don't look at my Olympic size outdoor heated swimming pool and hot tub built for 20."
I do my part everyday, not just on April 22nd. I recycle from cans to paper. I do my laundry after 6pm so i can save energy. I have a line dry on the balcony of my house so i dont have to use the dryer all the time.
My original post:
Humans are the worse form of life on this planet. They have destroyed much.
Yes, I'd like to see humans go extinct. The planet does not need humans....
I always knew Progressives were at heart self loathing. Wishing for the extinction of your own species is a serious mental disorder.
Yep the curly cues were supposed to last for what was it three years I thinki and oops.
