Today's Environmental Impact

Ok, so today I took the train to work (2 to be exact), and considering these trains need an enormous amount of electricity to run, I gave mother earth a good kick to the crouch. I guess instead I could have ridden a bike to work; not only saving mama earth, but also giving myself a healthy dose of exercise...but then I would get to work pretty sweaty...and probably smell a lil ...and I don't want to be the smelly sweaty guy at work. Ok, so it sounds a lil vain...I know...I guess I can ride a bike on my free time to build up my stamina (not that there's anything wrong with it) to not get so sweaty by the time I get to work...I guess I should buy a bike, too...

I also ate a toasted bran muffin with cream cheese during my break...I don't know how that affected the environment...I guess the carbon dioxide that was released by the gasoline that was used by the vehicle(s) to transport the muffin and creamcheese to the deli damaged the planet...so I guess I could have harvested the muffin myself? and maybe churned my own cream cheese? But, seriously...when am I supposed to find the time to harvest all that wheat and oat, and at the same time care for my livestock?

So, what am I doing to offset my carbon prints? Well, I do recycle...I really try to hold on to my garbage until I come across a garbage can of some sort...I don't let balloons fly off to the sky, but i think thats more towards saving fish.

I do believe the environment is in danger, though. We've got rising temperatures at alarming rates, more frequent and disastrous hurricanes, melting ice all over the place; mama earth is having a complete make-over and it's not coming out too good.

Well that's my food for thought today.
