chuvaness : Why does a single tablet need to placed in a plastic bag?
why indeed?!!!
i have read somewhere that your re-useable/eco bag used 2x a week for 2 years saves up to 832 plactic bags which is equivalent to 11 lbs of garbage and enough petroleum to drive you 60miles.
food for thought today and tomorrow and everytime you are given a plastic bag
Whenever you are confronted with an opponent. Conquer him with love.
There is nothing that wastes the body like worry, and one who has any faith in God should be ashamed to worry about anything whatsoever.
Prayer is not asking. It is a longing of the soul. It is daily admission of one’s weakness. It is better in prayer to have a heart without words than words without a heart.
For environmentalists, it’s not only his simple lifestyle that is a touchstone. His belief that change can only be motivated by embracing truth is also valuable in an age dominate by a debate over the severity of climate change and resource use. Commenting on the nature of progress, Gandhi said that:
Speed is irrelevant if you are going in the wrong direction.

ironic nga naman. why would his grandson think that an expensive montblanc pen would be a good way to remember him?

the random wrinkling of the bag symbolizes the cracks of Mother Earth caused by our collective abuse. but here’s good news : choose to reuse, reduce and recycle resources today, and we can help reverse the effect in 10 years. made with love, repurposed canvass and tarpaulin, this reuseable tote by michi calica works and looks better than any plastic bag.
we reuse em' all
the bag’s underside is made of re-used tarpaulins to further promote waste management. michi calica’s choice is the earth day network.
lately nauubos ang internet surfing time ko sa pag surf ng mga recycled furniture. nag pa-plano kasi akong magpa renovate ng room ko sa probinsya. dahil tight ang budget and at the same time gusto ko kasing i-preserve ang mga gamit ko especially those that i used since bata pa ako.
sharing with you the favorite pieces i really really like.
book shelf made of books!
table lamp made of recycled lawnmower blades and vehicle plates
chair made of street signs – coolness!
chadelier made of disposable pens.
and these chairs made of crates… meron kami sa office nito!
kanina sa starbucks while waiting sa order ko and counting kung ilang calories na naman kaya ito at kaya ko bang i burn yun by walking from there to the office building… i saw this signage by the condiments bar…
A world of good is less than a handful…

Please be mindful of the amount of paper napkins you use to help us reduce our carbon footprint.
sana madami pang stores ang maglagay ng ganitong reminders para madagdagan ang awareness ng mga tao… gaya ko… minsan kasi kahit alam ko na.. nalilimutan ko pa rin…
naalala ko tuloy ang notice na ito na nakuha ko before the earth day noong lang april 22. sana they offer more discounts everytime you use your thumbler to buy coffee. para madami ng mag re-use at makatulong din sa waste reduction at paper cups usage reduction.
One tumbler used in place of One disposable cup can help reduce millions in paper and plastic consumption.
For joining us in this cause, we’ll take P40 off the price of your beverage when you use your thumbler…
sana din maalala ko na bitbitin ang tumbler ko everytime bibili ako sa starbucks (hay… memory gap).
and this uses less energy too!
