    One square will save the world?

    I thought I'd heard about everything in my life but I was wrong. According to Cheryl Crow, using only one square of toilet paper when you go to the bathroom will help save the world and stop global warming.

    Ok, I'm all for conserving our paper products but HEY! TREES GROW BACK!!!

    Please, keep your nose out of my bathroom habits.

    BUT if you really want to save toilet paper, when you do #1 you could just drip dry!!!
    No matter what anyone does, someone some where will be offended some how!!!!

    An Interesting Thought !!!!

    It snowed here in Armidale last November .
    Now how could that be ???? November is summer for us.
    It also snowed in Armidale in November 1923.

    I don’t believe it’s totally man made, but we certainly have something to do with it for sure!

    It seems that some people start realising how serious this is, but I think it’s a bit late!

    The ice is melting twice as fast as previous thought, since 1979 the melted ice is twice the size of Texas, or 5 times the size of United Kingdom! Just imagine that!

    Emissions from planes are said to double in the next 25 years.

    If the sea level continue to rise at the level they predict, the city of Miami will be 5 miles offshore - and 50 million people would be displaced within 50 years!

    The question is, what do we all do about it?

    Time to move out of Florida!

    I did the right thing by setting you free
    But the pain is very deep.
    If only I could turn back time, forever, you I'd keep.
    I miss you


    I hear you whimper in your sleep
    I gently pet you and say, no bad dreams
    It will be alright, to my dog as dark as night.

    Fur as dark as the night.
    Join me on this flight.
    Paws of love that follow me.
    In my heart you'll forever be.
    [/SIZE]



    How I wish I could hold you near.
    Turn back time to make it so.
    Hug you close and never let go.

    The world will be just fine. (It was just fine for the 4.5 billion years before we arrived on the scene).

    Sure, some species will be extinct, but others will flourish. Miami may be in the ocean, so people who currently own the less desirable inland properties will be able to have beach-front condos!

    What seems to be ignored is what I consider to be the real problem -that there are only a finite number of resources to support a finite number of organisms. As long as we humans continue to over-populate this planet, the other species will be crowded out. A global effort at human birth control would go a long ways to helping insure that there is enough resources for all living creatures on this planet.

    These are not the droids you were looking for

  11. There are people who do not believe we are over-populating the world with too many consuming too much while creating too much waste?

    Doesn't surprise me. There are people who do not believe in evolution.

    There are people who do not believe in the Holocaust.

    We have begun changing our lightbulbs, recycling, walking to do our errands, and anything else we can to reduce our contribution.

    I don't have any kids to worry about...but it seems a shame to waste such a nice planet....

    Please, if your dog is arthritic look into getting it Elk Velvet Antler. Look up my posts on it, PM me, or look it up on a search engine; but please if you love your dog and want it to live many more years consider this option. I've seen so many posts on here about dogs needlessly suffering. I can't make a new post about EVA every time so this plea is going here. EVA also helps with other ailments such as anemia.
