Setting examples

Tinkerbell · #1 (**permalink**) 07-10-2006, 10:10 AM

Saw a bit of the Trevor Macdonald programme last night in which folk were assessed according to their activites and resultant carbon footprints. I would have liked to see just how environmentally friendly the panel themselves were - just appearing in a studio, with all its paraphernalia, sets, travel implications etc. must also involve some environmental degradation. Is it a case of 'Do as I say, and not as I do'.

Hi Tinks, I'me not quite sure what you are getting at in this thread. Where you making a statement against the environmenatal hazards found in a studio, for example, electronic emissons, sound pollution, etcetra. All the sort of pollution that one finds in an enclosed situation. I might have the wrong idea as to what you mean, but whatever it is I think you'r "spitting against the wind" like all other concerned people.
I have decided after years of worry about the environment that there is nothing I can do about it. This civilization has got to go on in its mad dash to extinction just like the civilizations of the past.
Humans never learn.

Don't give up, Tanny! Some of us humans learn ... it's a shame that everyone hasn't learned a lot more before now but if *we* set a good example ....
