I drove my SUV to work today. Didn't even realize it was Earth Day. Of course, I wouldn't have done anything different even if I had.

Maybe I'll go hug a tree during my lunch break. :D

Doing stuff just for Earth Day seems kind of retarded. Oh wow, I rode a bike to work one day out of the year, and drive my SUV the rest of it.

That being said, we drink a lot of soda at work, and people would just throw the cans away for the most part, but I collect them and haul them to the recycle place. The money is minimal, I just hate seeing refined metals that are easily recyclable go to waste, I don't do it to "be kind to the Earth."

So you are going to take advantage of Saturn's return policy tomorrow?

I'm thinking I'll release some CFC's into the atmosphere... CFC's... there's something you really don't hear about everyday anymore. I remember in grade 3 doing all sorts of projects on them, but I guess 1988 was a bad year for CFCs.

I'm going to cut the grass with a lawnmower that pollutes more than a fleet of Packards.

I walked to work today in celebration of Earth day.

Then again I walked yesterday too. And the day before that. And the day before that. (in the rain.) And probably tomorrow too!

It's a lifestyle choice, not a day.

Mother Nature gave me rain on what could have been a nice sunny day, so Mother Nature can consider Earth Day activties CANCELLED from me.
