I bought a car with a good EPA rating a great gas mileage, I carpool when possible, and I moved so that I could walk to school and work. For a long time I drove once a month or two, now because of student teaching it's about three times a month. Next quarter I start student teaching full-time, I'm moving there.Originally Posted by Raistlin
Do you drive a car? Do you use electricity that you don't really need? Do you ever eat out when you could eat in?
Everybody does something harmful or wasteful every day. Most people do a gut-check cost-benefit analysis to consider whether stopping or restricting something is worth it. In the vast majority of cases, most people decide that it's not worth it to them. Sounds perfectly logical to me. Things can be bad, but either not worth the effort of stopping or better than any alternative.
I do my best to conserve electricity.
I very rarely eat out.
If you think something is wrong and you do nothing to try and help, you suck.
:<3::<3::<3:I think if you know something is wrong and you keep doing it, you suck very hard. I call it the burden of having a brain. I read the link you posted about slaughter in Britain and now either I have to convince myself it isn't all true, or else my conscience is going to be tortured by my own suckitude. So thanks a lot.
It's not hard to do something. It's not like you have to become a vegetarian to lower the demand for meat, just don't eat as much excess of it.
Hey, gotta make money somehow. A dollar a day is a freaking lot to those people. It's probably either work in a factory or be sold for sex.
And I like how when other's are being scolded for discussing cannibalism 'cause it's off topic, you go into child labor. xD
