It's funny how, with all this talk of global warming, it seems to get colder here in Sweden every winter. As far as I've understood it's supposed to have something to with the gulf stream changing (I'm not quite sure about the specifics, or if it's even true) which makes for colder weather here in Sweden. Now that of course gives us all colder winters. Which makes us swedes purchase expensive clothing to cope with the cold. I've done my part. I bought my self gloves, special underwear etc. etc. But, apparently, I'd overlooked one thing. Proper shoes. Because of this I got a pair of shoes as a gift from a friend. Now I understand why. They are extremely slippery. Twice I slipped during the short period of time I spent outside. So, like I said, global warming is out to get me.
To be honest I never really cared about the environment. I consider myself being too busy to sort my garbage. "I haven't got time for that nonsense, I've got better things to do!" Maybe it's all cosmic payback? If I don't care about keeping the earth clean it'll eventually hit me back. Still, I do not think my small contribution to making the world a better would make any difference. Maybe if everyone would make the same small contribution, but let's be honest... Who does? Some probably say they do, but they really don't do all they can. Just a very small group of people do. And I've many times been curious as to why they do it. I don't think they all do it to save the environment. I honestly do not. I think they're just trying to better than everyone else. Who doesn't like feeling superior to the common man? We're all assholes.
Over and out!
