Wow, my comments on my last post were…HARSH! I decided to leave the comments because they do have some validation to them; they are honest comments! HOWEVER…if you looked at the time of the post you will see that I was at home when the clock struck 8pm! Wasn’t that the whole point; to make a statement at one specific time?
As for the environmental impact of flying…yes…it is a huge problem. However, I don’t really think my work would understand if I said I NEVER wanted to fly again. Sometimes you don’t really have a choice.
So for my negative commenters (if they ever choose to read my blog again)…what exactly would you have done if your job required you to fly? It doesn’t change my opinions and feelings on protecting the environment. It doesn’t change my opinions on oil. I really don’t see it as being a hypocrite…would you really like me to look into your life? I don’t claim to be a perfect environmental steward. If you read ABOUT ME you will see I’m taking as many steps as I can to be BETTER!
And please remember, unless they are spam or flaming vulgaritites…I will keep your comments. I think it’s great to hear both positive and negative comments. So thank you!
EcoChic, you are truly admirable for keeping the sarcastic/negative vibe comments up!
Happy Belated Earth Hour!!
WOW. You are so nice– to everyone. Many people could learn a lot from the way you handle EVERYTHING.
It is important to point out (without being to specific) that the very job you have– which DOES require you to travel– is to help better our planet.
As far as I know, there are no oil/gas/diesel-free hovercrafts available for purchase so just keep on doing what you do– EDUCATE the best you way can and help keep spreading the word on ways to protect our Earth.
