Did you know?

See, look, Earth is saying "Help Me!"  I was watching this show on tv. earlier and I found out some interesting stuff.  You know how Thomas Edison invented the incondescent (sp?) light bulb?  Turns out that his light bulb works just like a toaster. 90% of the energy produced by light bulbs is heat.

Each American uses 5 trees worth of paper in a year; and I mean big, tall trees, not little tiny ones.  American throw away 428,000 cell phones per day.  Americans throw away so much paper that we could stack sheets of paper on top of eachother to create a 12 foot tall wall that reaches 3,000 miles from New York City to Las Angeles.  That's 36,000 sheets per column.

And, we aren't just wasteful with natural resources liek paper and oil, it's also food.  think about how many animals are slaughtered to make food that we human beings buy but don't always eat beacause it "expires" before we get a chance to eat it. This country has a lot of problems liek obeisity.  If people stopped eating fast food in front of the tv., they could cook for themselves to create a healthier meal and then, they could watch tv. some other time and go on a walk of play with their family or friends.  (Unless of course, you don't have friends and you live alone...)  

personally, I believ that their is one universall solution to all of our countries problems.  People could stop driving and walk, carpool, take the bus, or even ride yor bike.  Adding that excercise in with your daily commute to whearever you need to go might prevent you from becoming abeise; same with the drive-thru food.  If you stop eating it, you cuold eat at home instead and save gas money, and oil.  if you recycle paper, that is cutting down on our paper waste by 50%.  same thing with margins on typed documents.  If you reduce your margins to 1/2 an inch, that also save us paper.  Now, this si just my opinion...i'm not that kind of person that forces their opinions on someone else.  You don't have to listen to me...i'm just putting it out their.
