Earth-friendly initiatives

July 25, 2010

I’m always glad when there are initiatives geared towards environmental conservation and preservation. For instance, there’s SM’s MYOB (MY Own Bag) every Wednesday which encourages shoppers to bring their own shopping bags instead of having to rely on the store’s green plastic bags. There’s the Trash to Cash, a waste recycling market, every first Friday and Saturday of the month.

I was also impressed by Human Nature’s packaging for their products (see photo above) - recycled magazines instead of packing it with a plastic with their logo on it as most shops would do. When the Human Nature saleslady handed over the packaging, I was impressed.

I also remember my friend O who gave us gifts wrapped in old newspaper. I really thought it was cool and am thinking of following suit. Gift wrappers from recycled magazines and newspapers are just one of the many simple ways we can do to protect Mother Earth.

about me

I’m just another simple soul inhabiting the blogosphere, writing about the bits and pieces of my life, sharing my thoughts and reflections on life’s journey… these are what I fondly call my ideas in pink.


Ideas are powerful. A train of thought can make or break, build or destroy. The choice is ours. Our ideas become our future. I believe that life’s meaningful lessons are best learned when shared with others.
