I finally found this article so i'm posting on it.

Quoted From Channel NewsAsia Website

SINGAPORE: Students in Singapore are highly aware of environmental issues like global warming, energy and water conservation.

That is according to a recent survey by the National Environment Agency, which was released at the launch of the Schools' Carnival as part of the Clean & Green Week 2006.

The survey found that nine out of 10 of the 1,900 students who took part in the survey are aware of environmental issues, and 8 in 10 students showed interest in environmental issues.

A similar proportion of students felt that environmental issues will be part of their lives.

However, when it came to putting this into practice, only 6 in 10 students were doing so.

============================================

Here's my frank opinion:

HAHAhhahaHAhhahahaHAhahahHAhahahHAhahaHHAha... snort... wheeze wheeeze.. hahaHAHahhaAHhahHAhahHHAhhaa.... (rofl)... hahahaHHAhahHAhaHHAhaha...

Bull




Shit


AWARE? INTEREST? PUT INTO PRACTICE? This has gotta be the MOST FUNNY THING I ever heard, coming from a society where you say "hey! I'm concern about the environment" and everyone else goes "whoooaa......... HIPPIE!". Haha, joke, BIG UGLY JOKE




Go Watch Happy Feet!

Loved this movie, its pretty funny, plus it tells ya so much environment! Take dear ol memphis here who got his damn penguin head caught in a plastic ring. CMON! see this is a fiiiiiine example of LITTERINGGGGGGGGGG..... Especially into those rivers and seas of yours. You're KILLING UNSUSPECTING WILDLIFE, throwing pieces after pieces of JUNK into that beautiful water and letting them get to it. Imagine you swimming in that junk infested sea and getting your head stuck into a foam box or breathing in plastic bags. Nice? You don't think so? SO DO THE WILDLIFE! So stop doing it :) <- eerie change of tone.

And whats the whole movie about? Happy feet? Penguins? Nooooooooo.... its about our excessive lifestyle! Why, LOOK at that trailer in the movie with its HUGE sack of fish. We're taking away whats meant for others, and in large quantities! We're eating too much fish, the movie seems to tell us. Well... its not just fish, we're consuming too much! Supermarkets with their unlimited supply of food, the endless buffet tables. And lets not just stop there, how bout products laden with packaging, or our endless and growing demand for fossil fuels, the list is sure endless!

Now, lets all just think, what if we stop consuming excessively? What if we bought only what we needed? What if we cut down on our wastage? Whats there to lose for us? What if we bought lesser food, used lesser fossil fuels (petrol, electricity), bought more efficient appliances and cars, lived in smaller houses? Ultimately, we end up gaining from all the monetary savings! If thats not enough, well, get off this planet :) <- eerie change of tone again

Amazing Green Race 2006!


Pretty happy with this year's Amazing race, the teachers spent their time taking pictures of the environment unlike other years where they ran around like monkeys to win the prize. hope next year they do the same. BUT- the SPENV pitstops were totally unnecessary, aside for giving us a nice place to mine for CCA points.

And oh, i got the Green Butty Award from SP for my "Contributions to the environment". Nice plaque, but i love the $500 more. so pragmatic am i.
