Planetary Managers

[oscarose]

Twas thinking, the environment is our miner's canary - a warning that something is going wrong. That our present way of being and of seeing the world isn't working. We can only inherit our significant role as planetary managers when our spirit is fully awakened. Else, if we miss this opportunity, all that will happen is that another combination of genes - another life-form - will evolve to pick up life's relay baton and assume our role as planetary managers.

We must act now!

I'm already doing my bit with some recycling.

Can you list what you recycle so we can comment ?

Cans.
Bottles.
Tins.
Papers.
Shoes.
Clothes.
Etc.

No more aerosols.
The car is up for sale.
I’m purchasing several chickens this afternoon. This cuts down the amount of imported food.
Ms OR started a compose heap at the weekend and a veggie patch.
Plastic bags are now banned – these are the biggest killer of marine life.
Rubber johnnies are banned – these are bad as can’t be broken down.
Green products only allowed in the house.
I’m not getting another contract until it’s one I can cycle to.
No more flights abroad.
Etc.

I hope you can follow our example.

Whooo there.... no more flights abroad, passing up on work unless you can cycle to it !

I'm happy to put the bottles of wine out for recycling but foregoing a holiday no chance.

RH did his bit for the planet by banning MF thus saving the electricity MF would have spent posting.

Come on RH! You can do more!
