My posts make it seem that I am driven by money than anything else!
That is true!
You see - its economical to be environmentally or health oriented.
Everybody will die one day- so why not smoke, drink and be merry.
I get that a lot. But although everyone will die- a person with heart disease, lung cancer, obesity related disability, diabetes, CAD will place a lot of economical strain on a country before he or she dies.
no, its not about my tax dollars- its about waste of resources of the community on insulin and chemotherapy when the money could be better utilized in infrastructure, health, education, research.
and so I run and I diet and I excercise- and its not easy - but i do this for the world as much as for myself!
same way- growing organic food is costly to start but ends in huge savings in health resource utilization and environmental stability.The same with recycling, water and electric conservation etc.
ITS TIME I STOP THINKING OF MONEY AS MINE AND YOURS and start thinking -OURS!! so if I save money by dumping trash instead of recycling - but cost you (the country, the world) money- then i am not really saving!
