Earth Day Promotion




You all know my thoughts about it. Earth day should be everyday, not just a reminder once in a year. Unfortunately, I cannot do reductions like that everyday, but I try my best to keep good prices.

Have a wonderful green day!

Pollution Day

Haaaa Pollution Day is finally over and we are back to 364 Earth Day!! *sigh of relief*

Meaning no tree cutting or jail. No more wasting, chemical and air pollution, no more diesel car, no more factory farming. I know it was difficult for them all polluters to fit it all in one day, but heck, that's life right?

I wonder how they managed to produce all the plastic in 24h. But fortunately we don't need these type of dangerous material anymore.

Well, that's good to dream but meanwhile we are very far from it. And it is not at the bottom things will change, it will be from the top. If industries don't stop, this will be the death of the earth. All our good intentions will  pave the hell we are creating around us.

Recycling and conservation are the only solutions. Why advocate to plant trees when ancient forests are vanishing away with industrial logging? These forests cannot be replanted. The trees are only a part of the vast and complex eco-system. Without the soil and all the exchanges these forests will be forever gone. They are the lungs of the planet.

One of this day, I'll post a green guide. A real one. Not a trendy recessionista (hate that word) one. 

Because you have to be dedicated, you have to follow principles, you have to think things throught. You have to think by yourself and research.

I usually don't use quote but I really like that one (if you have the origine and date of it, please let me know):

"Education is the most powerful weapon you can use to change the world."
Nelson Mandela
