Clean atmosphere
Green and clean atmosphere that can create comfort in life
Inhabit a planet clean and green enough to start living within the limits of the rational and sustainable committing to all and a person at a time. But not everyone escapes this simple but effective slogan.
Colin Beavan the difference was the inspiration that could awaken in those who heard about the initiative. By accessing the site today you can download a guide to live 7 days of zero impact with tips, ideas and an invitation to share the experience online. If all prove it is no doubt that the earth even breathe a sigh of relief one week a year.
Mark Boyle, a far more extreme activist, decided to stop using the money in full for a year, and perhaps for life.
However, just to draw some boundaries, to make some realistic calculations to understand how much we must reduce our impact. That’s the idea of ??10:10:10, which campaigned for so far in 2010 to reduce our carbon footprint by 10%. On Oct. 10 there will be events around the world celebrating the success of the initiative. Also from their website you can download a guide to lighten our load on the planet, most of the actions are discrete, reasonable, achievable. Anyone can reduce their impact by 10%, and if all we did … bam! The planet would have become greener.
It is true that the environmental performance of every citizen of the world depends largely on what governments propose and enforce, if there is a law that forces us all to be greener, we had long ago stopped worrying about global warming . The road to binding agreements and laws is still long, but what if while we reached the same difference on our own?
Reduce 10% in one year is much more achievable and tangible than 80% by 2050. Or maybe when we get to that date, our behavior has evolved so that our relationship with the planet is 100% better.
What prevents us from separating the trash today? Or put a brake on our empty consumerism? Why waste the water and electricity when we know how valuable they are? Why do not we reduce our impact today?
Beavan concluded: “The fact is that if I change just does not make any difference, but my hope is that if each of us changes, it will inspire all to change. So I think the most radical political act is to be an optimist. The most radical act that there is to believe that if I change, others follow me. “
