Do SOMETHING for Mother Earth today, won't you?

It's not so much a case of "You got what you paid for", as it is a matter of "You DIDN'T get what you DIDN'T pay for, and you're NOT going to get what you thought you were in the way of comfort". Borrowed from Heatboy.

    I remember the first one.

    My joints didn't creak then. Ah, those were the days!

    Reduce, Reuse, Recycle, Replace

    Today and everyday... good for the environment and the wallet!

    If it's yellow, let it mellow.

    If it's brown, flush it down!

    I met then President Jimmy Carter when the first one hit...

    And it was on my Birthday to boot.



    I shook hands with him and told him it was my birthday, and he said "Well happy birthday young man…" And I WAS a young man back then…http://www.presidency.ucsb.edu/ws/?pid=30746



    I don't really consider myself a tree hugger, but my parents raised all of us kids with the modus operandi of "Want not, waste not", which I instilled into my kids, and they are instilling into their kids. And as the other person posted, reduce, reuse, recycle and conserve is now a good way of life.

    lol

    Dan that's funny, I grew up on a septic system installed in a soil with a very high clay content.  My parents still practice this.  My dad's goal is to never ever have to replace or have the septic worked on, it's worked for 37 years.  I still do this even though I am on city sewer.  Old habits are hard to break.  Apparently we have been "green" all these years.
