Pink and blue make green, do you think this is true?  |
|
November 13, 2008 Forget what you know about ROY G BIV and think about how kids are being told they are destroying earth by their selfish ways. No kid is going to guilt me into recycling and the fact that little ole me can destroy a planet is downright laughable. P.S. 666 is telling John and Mary that they are the cause of “global warming”, saving the planet won’t save your soul. Can I get some twig snappers to agree with me? If not, give me your best argument to save mother earth.

1. GardenGerty (20575) | 1 year ago | I have always had a good respect for the environment, but not a guilt complex. I believe that doing what you can to help is important. That is not to say that I am perfectly green, but reasonably supportive of environmental responsibility. I believe we can go overboard in brow beating the kids in school.

3. aseretdd (6864) | 1 year ago | Playing the guilty card will never work... i believe that teaching children how they can help in their own simple way it the best way to save or preserve the environment...
It is so immature to tell innocent kids that they are destroying earth by their selfish ways... i would never say that to my own daughter or future kids...

4. ElicBxn (15612) | 1 year ago | Now, I recycle what I can not because I think I can save the earth, but I do know that land fills can only hold so much. I would hope that by keeping what I can out of them, they might last a bit longer. And if they do reuse the plastics, that much less oil might be imported - good in my book!
I'm glad I don't have to worry about any kids of mine being indoctonated, because I didn't have any.
Not because there are too many people on the planet (tho there are too many bad parents) but because I didn't need to pass on my lousy genetic material - better it stopped with me.
There are all kinds of reasons people shouldn't be allowed to breed (and sadly too many that shouldn't are breeding ARE) but at least I didn't pass on my allergies and migraines.

gitfiddleplayer (5574) | 1 year ago | Without another child to sneeze, Kleenex will surely fold! Most people don't know that you can only recycle certain things. Anything with a number 1, 2, or 3 on the bottle can be recycled, everything else, land fill.

ElicBxn (15612) | 1 year ago | Our city is picking up thru 5 now.
And you don't understand my allergies - we are not talking sneezing - we are talking hospitals....

gitfiddleplayer (5574) | 1 year ago | Sorry to hear that your allergies are that bad. Number 5 huh, that's just trash, I guess its better than leaving it on the street.

5. vera5d (2204) | 1 year ago | I am not really sure what your ps is referring to?
But anyways, we're actually headed towards global cooling and the earth does everything in cycles every few thousand (or millions?) years and there's really not a whole lot you can do about it!
However, I do think recycling is a good idea - I don't really like the idea of landfills! Plus, if we can reuse something, that's a lot better than it just going to waste.

gitfiddleplayer (5574) | 1 year ago | I was being general about public schools and their silly outreach to parents. I agree with not filling up landfills and reusing a product is better than tossing it.

6. suspenseful (17152) | 1 year ago | The whole point is that these global warmers are telling children is the only way to save the earth is to not have any children when they are old enough. So this is a culture of death. You tell a child that he is destroying the earth, and he will think of suicide. A child tells me I should recycle and I think he is a no it all. In fact, since he is so smart, he should quit school and get a job. By the way, I do recycle, but that is because it is cheaper to dump the kitchen waste on my compost pile, and I do not like extra papers around in the house. And this saving the planet is worshiping of nature. I do not worship nature nor a mother goddess. I worship God and HE made man a steward of the earth, not some bloody environmentalist.

gitfiddleplayer (5574) | 1 year ago | Pink for girls, blue for boys, I'm referring to little kids in school being taught that they are going to kill the earth.

9. kun2349 (7374) | 1 year ago | I dun really save mother earth.. Instead, i try to protect or al least minimise my damage to mother earth.. lol=D For, whatever we do affects mother earth, andin turns, mother earth shows its rages to us humans.. SO in the end, we are still the ones suffering all those natural diasters.. ANd so, why should we inflict pain and damage to ourselves for just a little bit of comfort? haha

10. sid556 (10912) | 1 year ago | I agree that kids should learn to be respectful of our planet and all but to be blaming them for it is ridiculous. I am 52 and I remember as a child walking and picking up more litter than you can imagine. That is not to mention all the factories and other things that those before even me were doing to destroy our planet. It can't be blamed on the kids of today for sure. This mess is not their fault but they should be educated so as not to continue the process or add to it. oh...and guilt is never a good motivater.
