The Desultory Defecation

Earth Hour, and everyone's turning off their lights for an hour giving themselves a pat on the back for not using electricity for an hour? Earth Day and we can't even do it for a day? or half a day? Just goes to show you how much we really care for the Earth and how far people are actually willing to go to help the Earth. Saving the world, at our own convenience. If people really cared about the world, why not Earth Hour everyday? everyday during some randomly assigned 60 minute interval, will be called Earth Hour. That would be a lot more useful than one hour...one day a year. People are all proud to be a part of this Earth Hour and Earth day stuff helping out the planet. BIG FUCKING WHOOP! it's ONE day...ONE hour, if they really cared, it'd be a full time endeavour, something incorporated into the daily lives. Let's be honest, most of us only care to saving the world when it's convenient for us. Not many will go out of their way and over the top to help the world. Come to think of it...are we really saving Earth? or are we trying to save ourselves? Let's cut the crap, the Earth will be fine with or without life and water. What we REALLY care about is saving our own narcissistic skins. WE don't want to die...so we adapt and try to change...but we're not saving the world...we're saving ourselves. People need to get off their high horse for this "noble" cause. Let's face it, us "saving" the Earth from complete catastrophe (ie. the planet explodes, not some stupid human perspective of catastrophe) is about as likely as sticking a foot up someone's ass, literally. Or the world being flat.
