Climate Change for the Worst

 


Talks and pledges are cheap.

They achieve nothing for climate change. Also no penalty for breaking old promises or non-action. Politicians are just playing games for their own hidden agendas and gains.

I could only do so little to help climate change:

Removed and returned my air-con (to scrap yard).

Refuse to use food delivery.

Reuse & reuse my containers for food take-away.

Reuse others’ old gadgets.

Recycle & reuse plastic-containers.

Refuse to buy new clothing (this is my 10th-year of endurance!).

Refuse to buy drinks in plastic bottles.

Refuse to buy non-essential item.

Resell non-essential items for coffee money.

Refuse to take plastic bags at retails & supermarkets.

Repair, repair & repair my old computers till the repairman kept scratching his head & gave me weird looks. Even my friends laughed at me. 😊

Money Barely Enough!

 


This medium of exchange is the most essential now, especially in current difficult times.

But many are not prepared and are currently struggling with loss of jobs, income and livelihoods. My thought on this is:

Money is not everything. Without money, we are nothing!

Nothing to count.

😊Nothing to hide.

☹Nothing to show off.

Nothing to celebrate.

😊Nothing to think about what to buy.

😊Nothing becomes waste to worsen climate change.

Everything is going perfectly…

 


It’s the new norm these days that everything is going perfectly wrong all at the same time. Sigh!

It’s getting really tough for everyone here.

You see these things keep rising or about to rise again in the coming weeks or months:

Pump prices

Food prices

Bus and train fares

Health care costs

Insurance premiums

Energy costs

………………

Stress level & blood pressure…

Just Pause It

 


Someone once said, “Life is like riding a bicycle, you have to keep moving forward.” This is quite true. However, it’s better to sometimes pause for a moment to take a step back and look at the big picture. Maybe one could see ideas or big opportunities to make things better. Many saw opportunities but failed to take actions. But if we cannot see any opportunity or possibility, how can we take action? I discovered this wisdom too late on my own! This explains why I’m still perspiring and struggling inside the mad rat-race with no finish-line in sight! Sigh!
