What Are Your Eco-Sins?
Submitted by Tracey_Smith on Wed, 2008-02-06 15:48.
It's Wednesday, my favourite day of the week - radio day.
I had lots of tongue in cheeky fun today with a phone-in about our worst eco-sins!
Listeners were invited to call me, anonymously of course, with their most awful eco-sin and at one point, it turned into a confession booth on the airwaves!
There were things like....
"Occasionally, I'll go for a McDonalds and when I'm feeling desperate, a KFC!"
and
"Sometimes, I don't want to share the bath water with my other half....I just want a pocket of self-indulgent time, with candles on and a glass of chilled wine and I want to lay there until the water goes cold and I go wrinkly...."
there was also a
"I just cannot seem to organise myself well enough to do car share and always go shopping with 3 empty seats..."
Many of the listeners commented how 'absolved' they felt after shedding the burden of their wrongdoings....lol...
So I thought I'd open it up to you, my lovely readers.
The deal is this, you hop onto the Comment button at the bottom of the page and tell me everything, I'll print it, you'll feel better and it might even nudge you closer to not doing it again! Everyone wins!
The most important thing to remember is this, we are all human and we all make mistakes. The purists of the world are awful and don't help us on our migration to a better life...they fill us with guilt and anguish, not optimism and hope that we might get it right next time....
So come on, 'fess up to your Sister of Salvation, Tracey Smith....I'm sitting in the booth awaiting your note...
Ahhhhhhmennnnnn.
