I am afraid that I am a horrid sinner in the Earth Day score. Our power comes mostly from coal fired plants and I have not planted much in my life. I do eschew air travel which I think is energy intensive and I only had one child. I read once that a child born in western democracy will have 30 times the impact on the environment that a third world child has. However, I rather imagine that my Earth Day credit balance would not be a source of pride. <br /><br />I don't believe that you need a prayer from the likes of me. Remember I always tell God a dirty joke. Everything will be OK. Feel guilty if you must, but realize that is your requirement, not God's.Sextanthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02869179401767968180noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7833454649093878095.post-63245800351974406152011-04-22T21:29:38.745-04:002011-04-22T21:29:38.745-04:00Those Google Doodles are amazing...are they not? ...Those Google Doodles are amazing...are they not? Tough to make out all the google letters. Someone has too much time on their hands to be drawing and planning all that google stuff..!! what am I saying...course their being paid to do it, but neat nonetheless.<br /><br />I don't know, I think I've more than done my 2 bits for earth day, and probably for a 1000 other people to boot..can you imagine how many plants, flowers, shrubs , trees et al, I have brought into this world ??? Over the last 38 yrs or so, I've seeded, propagated, planted a bazillion growing living things.....all the oxygen I have helped put back into the atmosphere and all the CO2 and pollutants I have helped eliminate.<br />And...how bout the 3 R's...all the old cars I've reused and recycled over the same 38 years.....but that's Ok...I'm more than happy to do it.<br />I guess I've put my fair share of pollutants back into the world too.<br />Hmmmm...I wonder if the balance still tips in earths favour ?? I hope I still have a credit balance.<br /><br />Do you think the Easter Bunny will visit me this year ? Perhaps a solid chocolate VW Bus hidden for me to find on Easter morning. Dandy eh.<br />A touch of quilt strikes me tho.......suppose I should be looking for the Risen Christ instead. Good Friday and I didn't go to church either.<br />Say a prayer for me Sextant.....maybe say one for both of us !<br /><br />Well....Happy Easter anyways.<br /><br />No worries<br />Cheers<br />VW BusmanAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00163705918646580867noreply@blogger.com
