Worldly Responsibility

I have yet to watch "An Inconvenient Truth", a documentary by Al Gore about global warming. I am waiting to watch it with a coworker of mine. I started to read the book by the same name. I only read a few pages, and in a way am afraid to delve any farther into that book. Global warming scares the crud outta me! I have lived in Minnesota all my life, and let me tell you the last few years have been very different. The seasons are not as they used to be. Winter is delayed a few months and summer is hotter than I can ever remember. It's scary.

With that in mind, I do pledge to be better about recycling and reusing. I have decided that any trips to the grocery store from now on will find me bringing my own bags to pack my groceries in. Perhaps I will bring bags that I have already gotten from previous trips, and eventually would like to get some cloth bags to always use for groceries. I was going to give a little spazz fest about corporate responsibility and the environment, but I think I will save that for another post.
