I've spent too much time in school learning about how our consumer culture fucks up the environment
so
I'm taking a stand!
For the next three months (so 'til September) I'm not gonna buy any stuff.
Nope
Nothing
The only things I'm allowed to buy are:
-Food/Drinks
-Gas (I know oil is ruining everything but hell, I don't drive for the 8 months I'm at school)
-Bathroom essentials
-Books
And also, no more of this plastic bottle nonsense. There's a fucking katamari of plastic waste floating in the ocean that's the size of Africa, and I'm sick of contributing to it, especially for stupid shit like buying plastic bottles filled with water (which I can get free from the tap, btw :V )
HIPPIE REVOLT!
I'd also do the vegetarian thing, but I'm trying to gain muscle mass and it's a lot easier to do on a meat eating diet
HYPOCRISY OF THE ENVIRONMENTALIST STRIKES BACK!
fuck, whatever, I know I'm not perfect; doesn't bother me XP
consumerism,
environmentalism,
vegetarianism
