Do you…

turn off the water while soaping or shampooing?

power down electrical equipment when not in use?

watch the portions of food to avoid to be forced to throw it away?

chose the smaller car to save fuel?

pay a higher price for goods produced ecofriendly, for fair trade?

do without glamour and glitter, without luxury and prodigality, without being bootlicked and spoiled?

Oh, yes, i hear you...

why should you? You can afford to waste water, energy, food and chemistry. You can do it – so you will do it...

you’ll visit Vegas or Dubai or Ayers Rock without considering the waste of energy and water – because you can, you have the money, you have the power...

and you have to show that you can...

why?

Can’t you feel the suffering of the Iraqi people for your fuel, the wailing of the starving children because their food is sold to you, the suicide farmers of India because your free market stole their life, the thirsty people of China because their waters are used for your industry?

Oh, yes, i hear you...

why should you? They are losers, you are the winner, you get what you deserve – and they get, what they deserve, you get the wealth and health, they get the death...

and i bet, you believe, that you will belong to the “winners” of Global Warming, too...

because for you, there will always be a place with fresh water, cozy climate, clean air, healthy food and servile slaves, even when Mother Earth collapses...

so why should you stop wasting other people’s living conditions?
