G.R.E.E.N

Green!
As a kid, this just meant a color to me... reaching adulthood it meant the $bucks$... and today, as a responsible individual (yeah, its good to believe so :D), the first thought it triggers is "protect the environment"

It goes back to a casual comic reading episode, during primary school days, when two interesting words caught my eye; interesting at that time and heart-sinking now - "Global Warming". At that time, I was proud of my newly-gained vocabulary and was fascinated by other terms too like, chlorofluorocarbons. It had an onomatopoeic effect then and I loved saying it again & again... Sadly, this episode just passed away and made no contribution other than helping me with some general knowledge trivia at school...

I am sure there are a lot of us out there - proud of just being aware that the human race is harming the environment, but not really making any contribution towards protecting it. But just the way I have been triggered to actually try to make a difference, I am hoping many more stagnant minds feel the same and start taking steps.

What do I actually do for mother earth? Nothing great yet.. small steps... its beginning... it has started and will go a long way.........

-- Use my very own ceramic cup at work, instead of using the disposable not-environment-friendly plastic cups
-- Hit the "go paperless" on all my bank accounts online
-- Everytime at wawa (my lunch place) when the register clerk asks me "Do you need a bag" I go "NO!"
-- One of the things I surf online is "go green" and look for activities I can do & environment-friendly changes I can bring to my lifestyle... There is a lot of information out there!
-- Unforgettably separate out my recyclable and non-recyclable thrash
-- And initiate writing on this :)

It has just started... Looking forward to being a more active contributor... Plant trees.... promote Eco-friendly products... Spread the word.... Read more, learn more, educate others more and act more..... It will go a long way... Go G.R.E.E.N!
