work, shipment, and packaging (plastic bags, prepackaged products, shipping boxes, "recyclable" paper <<actually dumped in TRASH>>, cardstock price tags, receipt roll aprox. 4-5 rolls/week, employee lunches <<take out>>, PLASTIC BAGS <<customers should "reuse" plastic bags or use bags created FOR reuse, GIFT BOXES, PLASTIC gift certificates, paper gift certificate envelopes.
work; (INDIRECT) FACTORIES and low wage labor,
(note on plastic bags; inputs for plastic bag (output); plastic, string, mini metal clamps.
PLASTIC products for babies; bottles, pacifier, sanitary station for bottles, formula containers,
eastern culture when it comes to post-birth mothers follow tradition and adapt to a different lifestyle for over a month (rice-wine); where does it come from, how is it made, and what is the storage unit (usually milk containers (plastic))
this is to improve the mothers health during the first month of baby's birth, but plastic molecules leeched from the milk container is ingested by mother and then pass on to baby through breast milk and so on and so forth
note: PLASTIC... surgeries hmm... why? questionable. either for medical or leisure reasons
very vague, confusing, not making any sense, but screw you

| So, this is completely out of the blue. I never came back to xanga after that last post, but all of a sudden I am encouraged by Anna's carbon footprint blog. (thanks for rubbing off, Anna.)
Now that so much time has passed since the last post and everyone/everything has changed. It's interesting to see how people change slowly throughout the course of time. And an interesting note (since time is the topic of thought) if only we can go back and alter the past somehow hey? But thats the beauty of time; the choices we make will affect the future either near or distant future.
Since the last post much has changed without pointing out the most obvious, university (cannot believe most of us are halfway through second year.) Which means we have about 75% of post secondary left? That is a crazy thought; after this experience we will be out in the read world and taking chances, leaping ahead, falling behind, criticized repeatedly and recovering repeatedly. The thought of nearing the real world is nervous-some and frightening. Regardless what the future may bring I'm sure we are strong and brave enough to overcome the hills and mount Everest-s.
School has become an enormous entity of our current life. Many struggle, many have found their calling for the time being. I've got to say that I can place myself in both of these categories. This newly developed/mandatory course, ECOLOGICAL PERSPECTIVE IN DESIGN 202 is slowly taking over our lives (in a good way (i think).) Our assignment is to "SAVE THE WORLD," duane e. This is no joke people, very serious matter at hands; we are slowly disintegrating, uhh... actually EXTREMELY RAPID beyond the speed of light (now thats what duane and environmentalists are trying to warn us.) We are burning up the earth by living such an advanced industrialized world filled with exceeding technologies. All the fancy, flashy cars are emitting a whole shit-load of CO2 and that compared to flying ain't even comparable. But because of every individual's geographical location we must move from one place to another due to various reasons, but as Duane and Rubin (prof/t.a.) or at least Rubin would choose not to fly than rather visiting his grandmother down in TX. That is either the craziest thing I've ever heard or the bravest (I haven't quite made up my mind yet.) But we must all do our parts in order to slow down global warming or try to stop it by cutting down our waste production, CO2 emissions; transportation, eating habits. Our lifestyles must alter ENTIRELY in order to save the world, which is seemingly impossible, but we must start from somewhere yea?
Is this a punishment from past mistakes? Who's fault is it anyway? Who was the first asshole to pollute the earth? That could be debatable, but I'd have no clue as to who it is. Instead of running away from the situation at hand; we must face it and take actions. However, there are environmental groups out there trying to do just that. I must admit I have encounter them before, but I always (I'm sure most of us do this as well,) but we tend to brush them aside and keep them and the problem in the corner top third shelf next to the old hand crank radio down in the dark, damp, cold cellar. That was an embarrassing part of me that I'm trying to make up for. Try to take initiative to cut down each and one of our CO2 emission. You might think that if I'm the only person who is trying to make a change, why bother? But if we all come together and try to make an effort think of how drastic the change may be
on a much larger scale. As the saying goes, look at the big picture.
(note to self, try to boycott CO2)
