Fill your house with plastic,
and the oceans too.
Fly at least one long haul flight
every year.
Drive a dirty diesel, or a 4WD,
even though you don’t live off-road.
Eat meat every day and
insist on out of season produce —
the more food miles, the better.
Have loads of kids, and
encourage them to do their bit for Malthus.
Vote for Climate Change denying,
oil-lobby funded politicians.
Make sure you have a job that
makes you sit in a traffic jam twice a day.
Only buy junk you know you’ll need
to throw away, or fill your garage with.
Learn the art of head-sand-sticking:
every night have one more drink,
and watch one more episode until you pass out.
Pretend nothing is wrong,
and whatever you do,
don’t plant any trees!
Or, choose to act
to save the Earth
before it is too
How to reduce your carbon footprint
