So my mom bought Ziploc bags a few months ago and she started freezing the meat in those bags, everything was perfect, or that's what I thought. In my mind we were going to stop using one-use-plastic-bags to freeze the meat, but I was mistaken, my mom starting to throw them into the trash! I was soo shocked and I ask her why she was doing that, I don't remember her answer now but, today, I saw in the trash can two bags, I got really angry, I mean no conscience? The worst s what she told me, she said:
" this country (one in south america) doesn't help me recycle so I won't do it"
I was like WTF, it's not recycle it's reuse, she was already mad at me, so I didn't say anything but, it makes me feel so bad the fact that I'm not really helping the planet, every time that I try to recycle or reuse in my house nobody helps at home, I feel so useless and that depresses me, I really want to help the planet...
to help make a difference in climate change and to not contribute to human and animal suffering as much as possible i:
- am vegan in all aspects - do not have a car - walk and bike as much as possible - use public transportation when i can not - use reusable bags - use reusable water bottles - use reusable utensils - use reusable containers - refuse plastic at all opportunities - buy recycled/fair trade clothing as i can - try my hardest to be zero waste - throw away NO food - recycle everything i can - switched to having all of my energy come from renewable sources - appreciate all water i use - pick up trash - buy local produce when i can - forgo produce that uses many resources - donate money to vegan and environmental causes - live a minimalistic life - get furniture and appliances second hand if possible - sell and donate things i no longer use
does that make me better than you? of course it doesn’t. but i probably am doing better than you. what the fuck are you doing for the planet? do more.
