Electrical consumption


Ive noticed how much electricity I've been wasting. So now i've decided to use less.



How?
Turn off the lights i don't need. (i really like my room all lit up)





.........basically just the lights i guess. OH! and also electrical 'appliances'





As you can see have been wasting electricity :( im feeling pretty guilty.

What am i wasting electricity on?
  1. Laptops.
  2. Monitor.
  3. DVD player.
  4. 2 room lamps (one of the lamps is on the other side of the room).
  5. 1 desk lamp.
  6. Fan.
*The printer's not turned on, so its fine.*


Dont mind the mess, this is actually pretty tidy. Its just cluttered.

Meaningful trash

The video i have uploaded came straight from a family guy episode which i thought was relevant to the topic at hand.

Family guy did a parody on the American film 'American Beauty'.

Conspicuous Waste
As you can watch from the video, it shows in a really funny way how rubbish may seem more deep and meaningful to others.
You can see 2 sides to this short clip

1) from Peters eyes.
2) From gods eyes.


*I dont own this video*

What things do you HAVE TO throw away?

Naturally an everyday household rubbish bin will have these items :

  • Bottles/cans.
  • Tissue paper (kleenex).
  • Toilet paper (note that these are 2 different kinds of tissues).
  • Food (those bits of unfinished meals).
  • wrappers. (be it food wrappers or candy wrappers there will always be at least one wrapper.)

Could you have avoided purchasing any of these in the first place?

To answer this question....i would say it would be difficult to avoid.....tissue paper is something you use everyday...unless you've installed a hose in your toilet to wash up after yourself.

An idea: To rid the world of toilet paper production (less trees will be cut down for toilet paper)...bidets should be installed in all bathrooms around the world!


With kleenex...it seems to me that people should probably carry their own handkerchief and maybe a bottle of those anti bacterial sprays or lotions :)

no matter how many solutions to what problems people come up with

at the end of the day.....


WASTE IS INEVITABLE.
