Will YOU do your bit to save the environment?

Question

Basically, I just want everyone to work together to save our beautiful planet.

So, would you like to help?

Great!!!

All you have to do is do two or more "green things" today, like turning off all of the unused lights in your house, gathering up some recyclable trash and recycling it, or walk, cycle or use public transport to get to work tomorrow. Then answer in what two or more green things you did today (remember: the more, the merrier!)

Thanks for stopping by to do your bit!

The only things I am interested in doing are the things that save me money.  I will turn off lights when they are not used, but that is about it.  Sorry, I'm in it for me.

Answer 2

I don't understand why people feel the need to make facetious, unintelligent and rude remarks on topics such as this one. Congratulations on being ignorant and selfish! Way to go!

Anyways,

I ride my bike to school

Recycle as much as possible

Refuse excess packaging

Keep the heat turned down

Don't buy bottled water

Eat lower on the food chain

etc....

In my school, we have a club for helping the environment. We got more than half the school to pledge to stop littering.  I also take shorter showers and turn off the light after i leave the room.

Help the cause! Save the Earth!

Answer 7

Not driving my car today....but it has a flat.  

I turn off lights when not in rooms.  I will get off the computer for a while....

Answer 8

Everyday I do as many of the little but all important things towards saving our environment.  I too feel strongly about it and recycle everything I possibly can with the resources on offer to do so, it has just become a way of life.  However I feel the government could make a massive impact by putting more money in things such as compost waste bins (for fruit & veg waste), along side paper & bottle banks.  And whatever happend to the rag & bone man.  My local cobler has a recycable bin outside his shop for shoes that are no use to charity etc because of wear & tear.  He then repairs them & sells them on - I would imagine for a profit but that is far better than filling our planet with 'junk'.  If the government had of taken a million pound out of the vast amount they have spent on the Olympics, these incentives alone could have already been up and running.

Answer 9

I just started a club to do that. pls answwer my question on the name of the club.

Answer 10

After I rake up the leaves from the yard, I'm using lighter fluid to burn them since lighter fluid is more environmentally safe than gasoline.

Then I plan to take my Jeep off roading into the national forest to watch the splendor of nature.

I do these things 'cause 'I care'.

Answer 11

We always recycle our bottles, I always turn off unused lights. Years of being nagged by mum has made sure of that! My hubby forgets, so he clearly wasn't nagged enough as a child!

Actually, my current "save the environment" project is reading a book on food ethics. BC (Before Child) we shopped a lot more ethically than we do now. We had more time and energy to do so, and we used to live in a larger town so there were more options. For example catching the train into town and shopping in the market. Most of our fruit, veggies, meat and even groceries were organic or at least "chemical free." Now we are using this new info I'm discovering and trying to find the balance between ethics, economy (only a teacher's wage!) and convenience (we're sleep deprived parents.)

Did you know the sterility rate of men working on banana plantations in central America is 20%? A fifth of these guys can't have kids because of the prolonged contact with chemicals; and in their societies kids are their superannuation. In Equador, kids as young as 10 are working 11 hour days hauling around pesticides. Makes you think about buying organic...

Answer 12

When Al Gore gives up his Private Jet, I'll give up driving my compact 4 door car to clients who are 80 miles from my house and ride a bike.

Folks forget green.  The real issue is middle east.  We need to get off oil for economic ($97/barrel today) and political (terrorists)   If doing that means going green great, but going green because of long term weather pattern changes that have been going on for 5 billion years, your fooling yourselves.

Green will only happen (beyond liberal extremists) when it is the same price or lower and as convenient as non-green

Answer 13

I haven't done anything green today, but i do do my bit to help the enviroment. Like, everyday!
