Wasteful ways?

Sitting in an air-conditioned office with shaded windows... It's not my idea of heaven - the exteriors are so much fun - sitting in our corporate offices, we miss many beautiful sights like the golden rays of the sun ( we use tubelights even during daytime, when just drawing the curtains can provide good lighting - would it not be sensible? It would be economical and friendly to the environment as well - we would be using lesser amounts of natural resources) And air-conditioners even in rooms which are locked, are they really necessary? and in winter???? plus some fans to spread the cold air around... what is it that makes us switch on every switch that we come across? as if this wasn't enough, how many of us can honestly claim to switch off aplliances which are not in use ( and that those around us do the same?)
We claim to care for the environment and complain about those who don't respect the environment, yet the small actions (which don't take our time, just our effort) which we can do can make a huge change to the world...
Talking of the environment, how many of us are really plastic-free?? We try to free ourselves from it, but today plastic is everywhere around us... We donot even care to see if it is recycled properly...
There's so much we can do to save our planet, and with just minimal effort... Long live the Blue Planet... May it regain its lost beauty once more... Let us all do our bit to make the world a better place to live in... (Thank you all for doing your bit)

  1. Hey... you are totally right! Maybe we should put it in as a suggestion in our respective offices.
