Working to Help
Picking up a thread from a few weeks ago, what would be a good way to conserve energy? Here’s a suggestion that I don’t remember reading elsewhere:
At work, don’t just focus on your own work space. Focus on your whole work place!
- If your workplace uses a lot of plastic forks & knives, contribute metal cutlery. It isn’t that expensive, but can significantly cut down on waste.
- Turn off lights in meeting rooms when you go home. You’d be surprised how many lights get left on needlessly!
- Turn off unused printers on your way out. Even in sleep mode, laser printers and photocopiers consume prodigious amounts of electricity.

You’ve constructed pants from a squirrel and I’m mad?
Communists waste megajoules of energy, by the way. Do you have any idea the resources it takes to Fluoridate a water supply?

Fouride? Don’t you know about the chemical plot started by our government ? The free radicals in Flouridated water fuse with our brain neurons so that the goverment can implant thoughts via transmissions sent through sub-conscious waves over radio and television.
I collect rain water or fill canteens from the local resevoir PRIOR to the flouride being added. I’m obviously cooler than you.
