Getting Rid of the Green Catchphrase

Have you ever noticed that the government has gone big on promoting all things GREEN but still refuses to admit that global warning exists?

Or that businesses that claim they're greener than a retirees well manicured front lawn still fail to implement a recycling plan right within their own facilities?

And can you even imagine that there are people out there right now who are absolutely against utilizing the classroom as a place to teach our children about the importance of conservation, thinking instead it's just an open opportunity excuse for liberal brainwashing?

To those people and really to anyone who thinks we're doing enough doing the very little we do, a wake up call! We have a responsibility to this planet, to leave it, if not the way we found it, than at least no more worse for wear.

The world is not a replenishable resource. If we ruin it beyond recognition, there is no easy fix to put our mistakes right. Even now, we are fighting an uphill battle to combat against everything the human race collectively has already done.

But do we do enough?

Sadly the answer is no... And because we don't look at this beyond our own front door, or beyond our own lifespan, too many of us toss our concerns (if we have any)into the dumpster like one more bag of garbage to be gotten rid of.

Every individual needs to care. Every individual needs to be responsible for what they put in and what they take out.

It takes a lot more to live green than it is to say you are green.

Isn't it time to admit we have a problem?
