Hi
Let's face it, we all seem to lead hectic lives. Never enough time to get round to many of the things we mean to do and going to bed telling ourselves we must definately do them tomorrow !
So how are we going to find the time to use a carbon footprint calculator and find out just how much carbon dioxide we are responsible for emitting?
Well, I guess it comes down to prioritisation and that is established by personal motivation. Like when it is 8pm on the night before your anniversary (which you forgot until 20 minutes ago) and you are racing to the stores to find that essential something to save your hide ! Boy, are you motivated and there is only one thing that matters.
What we must face up to, is that if we do not come up with meaningful ways to reduce co2 and cut global warming, then the Government will. And their preferred way is taxation!
Increased airport taxes to make you think twice about that break in the sun; implementing SPECS technology to charge us for road use by the mile; waste collection charges; and this took me just a few seconds to think up, so just wait until a Parliamentary committee sit down for 3 months to brainstorm.
For those of us whom are already embracing a new carbon friendly lifestyle, we have discovered the motivation, but if you haven't yet, then make a priority of calculating your carbon footprint today. And prevent a future of government induced motivation through your wallet.
Have a great day.
Denny
