How big is your footprint?

Yo Mat Riders,

Mat was sick last week ah. ALamak, go see doctor here can die man. So here right, cannot just anyhow walk in man. Must make appointment lah, so only can see 2 days later for Mat. Then medicine got to take from pharmacy, then also got to wait 2 hours. Alamak, a lot of people also sick lah but not as sick as Gaia.



Gaia is the a complex entity involving the Earth's biosphere, atmosphere, oceans, and soil; the totality constituting a feedback or cybernetic system which seeks an optimal physical and chemical environment for life on this planet. Cheemmmmmm.....

How big is your footprint, the one you leave permanently on Gaia? Let Mat put it this way. By 2050, if the demand remains at the same level as now ah, we will need 2 more planet Earths worth of resource to support us. Where to find 2 more? You know, better faster tell Mat. Scareded or not? Mat very scareded man. How will my mini Mats survive man?

So ah macam man? What can we do?

Preserve, if cannot, then conserve lah. Let Gaia heal. Do not mine the resource but farm the resource. Look around your house lah, look at the lightbulb. Do you use incandescent or flourescent bulb?

Flourescent bulb outlasts 13 incandescent bulbs


Flourescent bulb saves energy and $$$ (up to 10x savings)


Flourescent bulbs are cooler (80% of energy consumed in incandescent bulb is wasted heat)


How Mat Riders? Be a man! Do the right thing!



YESSAH!
Mat Love
