    Try to keep conspiracy theories or dolphins blood jokes to a minimum.

    I'm honestly probably average. I try to facilitate a bunch of recycling programs at work.But I live in Texas, and I might as well be married to my AC. I shower twice a day.

    I'd like to be more eco conscious, but still stay cool and be able to shower when I smell.

    How did you go about getting the solar powers?

    And, if you don't mind me asking, how much did it cost?

    I'm fairly eco-friendly with out even trying.
    I live on my own.
    My flat is tiny and only uses electricity.
    I don't have a car.
    I don't have kids.
    I don't have a wife.

    I wouldn't worry about having a shower twice a day.

    By driving a gas guzzling SUV, I’m doing my part to exhaust the world’s oil reserves so our children, and our children’s children, will be forced to find alternative eco-friendly sources of fuel in which to drive the next wave of the industrial revolution [​IMG]

    Sure shitty now alright, but I’m willing to sacrifice my air quality today so future generations will not have to struggle with this painful gut-wrenching choice [​IMG]

    You seem to doubt my magnanimity

    I don't believe in recycling, and don't believe that limiting my electricity/water usage will really make any difference whatsoever.

    On the other hand, I treat the earth with respect. I don't pollute, I don't kill, and I water plants and trees with my piss all the time.

    I am responsible for some of the greatest plant genocides in the modern world though, since I have probably thrown away more than a million plants at work in the last month.

    Meh, trendy green nonsense not withstanding, I am kind to the earth. I just don't buy into the hype. Do it because you want to, not because everyone else is (forcing/guilt tripping you to)

    I guess I am similar to BSR and what he said in his first two lines, minus the piss.

    yes :)
    my mission is to help sharks evolve to walking on land, they can already fly out of the water but black people and dolphins are holding them back

    I never gave a thought to it. But that move about the Tsunami and the Earth spinning off its axis was cool to the max, brah. [​IMG]

    Hell, think that it would take me a year to use the amount of water my greenhouse uses in a day.



    I fully support this as long as you fight for your cause naked.
