Just wondering if/what anyone was planning on doing for Earthday tomorrow?
I might turn off the lights for a while........unless you'd like to give me a few trees to plant or something? :)
I'm planning on heading out to California and setting a wildfire. Not in a forest, mind you, that's illegal. No, I'll hopefully be taking out all the dumbasses out there that are loaded on hideous plastic surgeries.
I live in oregon so earth day is big I'll be volunteering at the local nursery helping unload all the free saplings they give out for people to plant then having a bbq (if it doesnt rain!);)
I will attempt to be less flatulent. I also will not drive my car. ...okay my car broke today and won't move, but I might've elected not to drive had it not broke down. Okay, probably not.
I will cut my total carbon emissions by half by refraining from eating 6 bean burritos every 4.5 seconds.
I will drive a gas guzzler across my town for 6 hours. I will keep my lights on 24 hours straight. I will destroy the EPA.
I will set off a couple of nukes, start a new oil drilling site, dump toxic waste on top of the Great Barrier Reef, and shoot every hippie I see.
Hmmm.... anything else?
:soapbox:
If you're not gonna plant new trees and plants, You could at least try to help maintain older ones...
Cool. I don't think there are many nurseries left around here...And I don't picture them being able to hand out anything free.
Even for earth day.
well.... now that i know tomorrow's earth day, ill make sure i say "happy earth day" to at least one person!!
I don't drive a car. I walk to and from my dorm to campus most of the time, except when either I am seriously tired, or my legs are cramping...
Other than that, most of the CO2 that I emit is organic...
I also regularly emit methane and various trace gases, but those are for a different, and...uh....more discreet thread...:D
...Get Out.
It strikes me as extremely pathetic that environmentalists see it as a victory to have just one day per year set aside for 'green' activities. Maybe they should be working on the other 364 instead of the one they've already got?
I have never understood the purpose of Earth Day. It's basically useless.
Helping the environment?
You jest.
The same thing we try to do every day Pinky, try to take over the world!
They do. This is a day to help people that don't usually help out, Realize that taking care of the environment is a very important thing.
When there is a day actually marked, It encourages people to do more.
It's the same as mother's, father's, and grandparent's days.
Shouldn't you celebrate your family everyday?
It's to help people reali-----^See Above.
Yep. Its kind of like Thanksgiving. Give thankfulness its own holiday because Americans are too :modedit:ing lazy and selfish to care the other 364 days of the year. Only, it never works.
By the way, I was joking earlier. Just in case you hadn't realized.
Ok, guys. This thread is about Earth Day, not Talk About Each Other's Country Day...
Let's get back on topic here...
:cheer::cheer::cheer::cheer:earth day:cheer::cheer::cheer:
darky recycles and therefore is a good man;)
One last thing: So, you want me to be nice to the rest of the world and not only talk about Americans by saying that Thanksgiving and its equivalents exist because EVERYONE IN THE WORLD is too :modedit:ing lazy and selfish to care the other 364 days of the year?
Ok, I'm done.
Yeah, I'll celebrate Earth Day by setting the local forest on fire and dumping radioactive waste into the water table.
I walked my dog and he gave food to the grass....
Morning of Earth Day now ... lol.
I'll probably uhh ... go vegan today *tries not to gag* ... and try not to drive my car the whole day, but walk for errands instead (or ride my bike, w/e) ...
But I can always join the dark side and set a few forest fires, buy things that have CFCs ... and consume fossil fuels by the bulk. :devil:
That's so not right....
--------
Well, I can't give up my transport, as we can't walk anywhere because it isn't safe.....so I'll try to have my dad agree that we could maybe plant a few plants or flowers in our garden. It's about time we do so..
..There's a program at our school, that encourages recycling, so I will take some used papers and take it to school for that project...it's a very good one, I may add. :) We don't really recycle at all, as we don't have the best place to take it..
*grumbles* ...
So I'm really really really outta-my-wits tempted to take the car to buy food. Then I see your post. Gahhhhgggg ...
*locks up car keys inside safe* there.
Guess I'll bike there. Hey, wanna come? :D
(If you do, I'll help plant seedlings two blocks down [yeah they have an Earth Day event there, near the park] ... and polish the stones and rocks outside my apartment :cheer: ... and help the squirrels cross the road too!)
im planing to eat a steak full of meat (just helping nature get rid of those anoying animals)
IS everyone trying to bring that over here by insulting him... I'm not..
Also i'm doing nothing as I didn't even know Earth Day exists
*sighs*
I think I may switch off my PC, and internet, to save electricty thus contributing to the cause of 'Earth Day'.
It's a big sacrifice..:(
I refused to turn the computer on in I.T because its earthday lol
I know some whom at least may get a vacation from this forum in the very near future. Will that do as my contribution to Earth Day?
