Dear Mother Earth,
As it is the month of your "Birthday", Mother Earth *World Environment month*, I shall proclaim on this very fine day *sadly not on World Environment Day* that I, ***, loves thy Mother Earth!
Sadly this is only in words as my actions does not speak strongly enough as I
1. Waste water
2. Waste Electricity *the computer just runs and runs and thankfully it hasn't suffered from burnout*
3. Do not recycle *though i sell away my old newspaper*
4. uses tonnes of plastic bags
5. Accelerates way too much, but don't move far
6. Like my air conditioning super cold and shiver in the morning and complain "Why is it so cold?"
7. Do not have my own shopping bag *the thought of bread mixing around with socks just doesn't appeal to my mind* *maybe not yet*
8. I do not make my own compost
9. I prefer moving around in the luxuries of a car
10. I like buying non local stuff and thus cause you to suffer more tremendous pain.
So Mother Earth, I know I haven't been behaving very well and you have the right to dislike me even if I still adore your Natural Beauty that just ages so well at your age, not to say that you are old or anything, it just gets more and more beautiful with time, it's just that "your children" just don't appreciate your beauty and certain wounds have been cut and the scars are still there.
You are also getting angrier, day by day you get hotter and one day I fear your "explosion" I hope I won't see it as I fear it might be a terrible sight to behold. Now as it is your "birthday" I shall list down a few things that I intend to do to please you and maintain your "soon to be not so" eternal beauty.
1. When I get older I shall choose to carpool or take public transport or enjoy long walks or short cycles should the opportunity arises
2. I shall one day own a environmentally friendly house that is self sustainable
3. I shall reduce the amount of plastic bags given to me by shop workers.
4. I shall reduce the amount of water and electricity I spend *by how much I dunno, I can't even tell if I spent more or less*
5. Recycle more than my old newspapers *plastic! you are next!*
I shall see you more often dear foreign looking bins!
I know the "to do" list is shorter but it will help your health tremendously so please accept my peace offering.
your very sorry child,
Robbstar
p. s. pictures taken from various sites that I failed to cite... do forgive me....
p.p.s. wouldn't it be nice if one day all cars except public transportation are banned from moving? That is if the public transportation network is super efficient. Oh Well....Labels: Emo, Thoughts
