I do make an effort. I recycle all that I can. I dont even drive a car. Perfectly affordable but its just not what the world needs. Nothing worse than cars and industry and noone gives two hoots about the damage they cause. Well, they do but the people that really care dont have the power to make a difference and the rest are too apathetic or else just lazy. I walk to work and enjoy the exercise. On the way to work I outwalk lines of traffic going nowhere and stuck in jams. Of course, people say that cars make their lives more convenient..and they do. Its selfish people and weak governments who do all too little to regulate anything that are at fault.
Im not perfect but I do try. I can safely say that I will NEVER own a car.
Well I do own a car, but I'm such a social hermit that it rarely gets used.
Now I even get my groceries and all my other shopping delivered I rarely have to leave my home at all. I can soemtimes go a fortnight without stepping foot outside my front door.
I really want to change that this year though, it's not normal.
