Back to the office after a great weekend. I don't have to tell you how wonderful it is to spend time with those you really care about. I actually hang out with some people that I went to high school with over 25 years ago. We have all been through life's changes but who better to laugh with about old age than ones that are traveling that road along with you?
Anyway, I'm super busy today but wanted to share some things that I read this weekend in a magazine (recyclable, of course). The mag is Yes! Building a Just and Sustainable World. The page I'll steal from is called The Page That Counts:
Percentage of plastic bags that end up in the trash - 99%
Percentage REDUCTION of plastic bag use in Ireland afther the government began taxing bags in 2005 - 95%
Number of dollars the US government spends annually on renewable energy reserch - 1.5 billion
Number of dollars of revenue ExxonMobil generates in ONE DAY - 1 billion.
Miles per gallon a car got in a 1973 contest sponsored by Shell - 376.59 mpg.
Wow...
