A New Year’s Promise.
I have always prided myself for being in tune with the environment. I can remember being one of the few kids at school who took my sweet wrappers home, rather than just throwing them down in the playground.
Over the last ten years or so I have been doing my very best to change anything else in my life and to become even greener. Some things cannot be changed completely but it is surprising just how much we can all do to make a difference.
I think that over this period of time, there have also been a great deal of other people who are really trying to change their lifestyles. It is nice to see just how many people take their own shopping bags to the supermarket these days and most people are making a real effort to recycle everything in their rubbish in the best possible way.
It is only a few days into the New Year and when I took my empty jars round to the bottle bank earlier I couldn’t believe my eyes. Each of the recycling points was full to the brim and there were bags and bags of empty bottles all over the floor. My first thought was that the council should come and clean up the mess; but then I stopped myself. How wonderful it is that so many people are bothering to recycle their glass! They don’t have to bring it round to the recycling facility; they could just put it in with their domestic waste. All of these people really are trying to make a difference! Besides, the council will come and clear it all away sooner or later.
Perhaps there is hope for us after all. How brilliant it is to see such a huge amount of the public trying to do something positive for our world!
One last thing, I think that all of those who are into the idea of a more planet friendly lifestyle really need to look at this. This Enigin blog has some really inventive ideas for firms who are concerned about thier impact on the environment, I am really loving them this year!
