The sun is the most powerful source of energy in our solar system, then comes the power of electricty, and third, for people all around the world today, comes the power of spoken word; speech. Well, I'm hear to bring the word to you all about the environmentally "green" movement.
I love saving energy and all, but some things (at least for me) will never change. Get this! Last I went to the supermarket, which was this past (my B-day) weekend, I had seen chicken legs the size of my desktop, apples the size of a canteloupe, and a car with 11,000 features the size of a jet ski. What's wrong with this picture? I don't know about you, but how does one get dramatically oversized food into an iPod on wheels while still having room for friends?
Car makers and genetically engineered (GE) food creators are not two that I would normally mention but they have one thing in common; I'm not feelin' what they're wheelin'. There's just something about humanly-altered food and plastic bubbles on cart wheels that gives me a cringe. And I quote, I personally refuse to sacrafice the style a smoothly manufactured aluminum case of "fashionable entrance" power and size to save 20 cents per gallon.
And is GE food good for the environment? Because there's a couple organizations on my campus who are parted on the issue; one saying it saves money and helps millions, the other saying it corrupts bodies and hurts millions. All I know is when I eat meat, fruit, or veggies, it better be O'natural because, correct me if I'm wrong, humans for the past couple hundred years have made some pretty huge bloopers in hopes of making a profit, and I'd rather my health not be on their income statement.
Lastly, as I stated earlier, I love saving energy and all but it has it's limits. However, 'you give me a classic 1996 Chevy Impala SS with new eniviromentally sound insides and a good meal delivered straight from Mother Earth herself, then you'll have an avid believer. Until then, "say hello to da bad guy."
