Please consider the environment before…..

I have been pondering for the last few months the signature at the bottom of my emails (and life has not even been that slow). I have come to the conclusion that, “please consider the environment before printing off this email” at the bottom of every email is now so commonplace that it is likely to have made as much of an impact as it is going to.  Also, does it make that much sense, do people sit down consider the environment then print it off anyway?

Well I have decided that to try and have a bit more of an impact I will write a series of please consider the environment before… these include

please consider the environment before BOOKING YOUR HOLIDAY

please consider the environment before BUYING A MASSIVE TELIVISION

please consider the environment before DRIVING TO A SUPERMARKET

please consider the environment before BUYING CHEAP IMPORTED GOODS

Who knows what difference it will make, I imagine most people will not even notice and even if they do the only reaction will be “oh that’s different” or “bloody environmentalist”. Ah well, makes me feel like I have considered the environment.
