Earth Day


-Absorba-

268 views

Okay, my sister's now really the subject of this month, and now, she's been really going green. My grandma that's taking care of us while my parents are in Canada for a buisness trip thinks it's great, but in the past few days, Vicky's been taking going green really seriously. She unplugged every electronic object that we weren't using, like the toaster, TV, treadmill, you name it. Yesterday, when I was sending an e-mail to my dad, I took a bathroom break, and my sister completely shut the computer off. Then she's like, "I'm just helping the planet!". That was pretty much enough to convince my grandma to take her side. Then, she made us do this kind of thing on Nickelodeon called the Powerdown, which made us turn off our lights for one minute at 9:00 PM. I didn't want to do it because nobody I knew wanted to do it. Then, I don't know how she did it, but she cut off the power. I'm not sure she thought that plan the whole way through, because we couldn't turn the lights back on after that. My dog actually ran into a wall because he couldn't see. Wish the next days after that aren't sister-driven again.

Green? *vomits*

Not that I have much of problem with the idea, but the "clever" phrase used to describe it is utterly stupid.

 

And that's assuming people don't go overboard with it. My little sister is acting the same way. She was chewing me out nonstop this morning just for turning on the air conditioner in the car.

And that was because her third grade teacher told her something along the lines of "If we run out of oil, our planet will explode". :blink:
