So it's Earth Day... what have you done?

[Zydrate]

I'm sitting on my ass playing Guild Wars.

 

[gustcq]

Going green on everything i can

 

[CymTyr]

I have been rolling my own cigarettes today using "American Spirit" tobacco, so my contribution is smoking natural tobacco...

Sad but true.

 

[Combined]

Set several square kilometres filled with human corpses on fire.

It was a good day.

 

[dwightsteel]

Watched an episode of captain planet.

I don't believe you.

I don't make symbolic pointless gestures then go back to a resource-wasting lifestyle while thinking I've saved the planet because I used an organic recyclable for one day out of my life. I find real ways to reduce my carbon footprint such as not owning a car, only using climate control when I'm either freezing or boiling, not using things like bottled water and overpackaged and overprocessed stuff (I'm down to only needing to take out the trash about every five days) and other stuff that legitimately reduces the amount of the Earth's resources I have to personally use.

So if I hate eco-wackos so much, why the conscientious environmentalism in my personal life? Simple. Resources cost money and I'm a cheapskate. My friend Mike, the most liberal person I can tolerate (and he's pretty left-wing, having lived in San Francisco for a couple years), once said to me, exasperated, "I go to rallies and blog about Peak Oil and yet you're a right-wing conservative with a smaller carbon footprint than me. How the hell does that happen?"

Nothing I already walk everywhere, turn off all my lights unless im in a room, unplug everything im not using and recycle. I do plenty on a day to day basis so a superficial day like this means nothing to me.

Are you like me in that you love to call people out when they come up to you and say "you know it's Earth Day, save the planet"? Especially if they drove an SUV to work, it's just plain fun to rip them for their hypocrisy.

 

[sky14kemea]

[The Infamous Scamola]

Nothing, I smoked and then threw the cigarette butt on the pavement.

I am so green.

 

[Myfacehurt]

On my 360. Brother in law is upstairs destroying stuff with power tools. I believe that i am making a different today.

 

[painfull2006]

[Hawk of Battle]

What day?

 

[DonkeysAndClipboards]

Today was Earth Day?

 

[CoziestPigeon]

I've turned on extra lights. Fuck you hippies.

 

[Issalius]

I got in my car and let the engine idle for about 20 mins. Then i practiced burnouts before heading to school. O yea I left all the lights on in my house so my dog wouldnt get scared when all the people shut off their lights.

 

[ShortCommings]

i shot some hippies, that count?

(edit) the general consensus from escapist? fuck the planet

Nah no one i know cares nor do i really, not like I go out of my way to save the planet or anything its jsut bloody expensive and I like having extra money. Who can afford leaving things running all day when your not at them, lights on gas on, hot water going etc. Though I am guilty of useing high grade paper for my sketches recycled crap is just far too low grade.

 

[Pimppeter2]

It's earth day? Wasn't it earth day like a month ago?

I posted this reply on the internet, rather than writing it out on paper and driving my H3 to a nearby mailbox.
