Play due West while the poor get home.

Sadly so true.The problem is that most people think others should do something about it but not they themselves...

I think we all use and do things which are harmful to nature and other people.

- Most of us, many times because we were not told the exact results of such behaviour

For example, can we always easily escape the packaging mania?

- I am at a loss to say that I fully understand your meaning but, if we were told at school the full consequences of that behaviour I believe most of it could have been avoided by now.

Aren't many of us driving cars, although we could just as easily walk or use public transport?

- It depends so much of the world you refer to that I have to keep silent but again, “school it” before and we will see later.

The list can certainly be continued into infinity.

- I do not agree, sorry.
It is called citizenship the game I want and feel I have to play

What I'd like to say:
We can all do something about environmental pollution and climate change if we relentlessly question our own consumer behavior and correct it wherever possible and necessary.

- 159 countries have been this week in Lisbon discussing it, the future of the seas and that is why in my text there was the link:

Thank you for your interest and words

Thank you dear Gudrun.
I have lived more than 10 years North of Berlin and know how you feel.
Even in Switzerland, an old lady I knew would carry back to the Post Office unstamped letters because she felt the non obliterated stamp was no more hers . . .
The service had been made so the post had to keep its valid stamp nonetheless.
It was 1968. I dont know now.
Enjoy a fine weekend.

I don't wish to offend anyone, José, but if we had been told in school exactly about the results or consequences of such behavior, it would have been to the detriment of profit-oriented entrepreneurs, i.e., to the detriment of the economy. None of the governments of this world known to me opposes the economy, and none of the governments of this world known to me aligns the educational mandate with what really serves the common people, the citizens. The song by Pink Floyd, “Another brick in the wall,” has lost none of its relevance to this day, to my knowledge.
But do we need government or private schools to learn to use our own minds and become aware of our responsibility for this planet, to take an example from those who live with nature and not against it? And if we think we can't find suitable role models or teachers in the present, yet the past teaches us, doesn't it?

I had followed the link above, but just also make my own thoughts. Nevertheless, thanks for including the link again.
