After a fab weekend at Greenfest in Brisvegas (www.greenfest.com ) I am full of passion. Yes I do miss my husband who has been away in Canberra for a 24 hour bike race (http://www.corc24hour.com.au/) but that is not it. I am passionate now about doing all of the things that I have been putting off in order to reduce my impact on the environment.
However, I have realised that climate change, going green and living the eco life needs to be seen as more sexy. At one of the talks today it was confirmed that the most talked about subject on the internet is porn (Katie Patrick, Greenpages:http://www.thegreenpages.com.au/). No surprise there but how do we get environmental issues back in the forefront of people’s minds? I haven’t yet come up with the definitive answer but in the meantime these may provide some thought provoking fun.
Going green is sexy because……
1) You can turn the lights out for the sake of reducing your carbon footprint.
2) The only “meat” that you are interested in is metaphorical.
3) Hemp clothes are so itchy that it is more fun being out of them!
4) You have a hot new body due to all the walking you’re doing.
5) You are turned on more often than your air conditioning.
6) Mud wrestling is what you do every week when wrenching the veggies out of the garden.
7) Keeping warm involves lots of cuddles (again in the name of reducing the CF).
Just because your carbon footprint is small it doesn’t mean everything else is!
If you think of any more let me know. We need to get everyone on this green love wagon…….
