Many of us were raised with the saying "Waste not, want not". None of us, therefore, can completely avoid waste in our lives.
Any kind of waste was thoughtless, whether we waste our potential talents, our own time, our limited natural resource, our money, or other people's time. Each of us can become more aware of and careful. The smallest good habits can make the big difference. It's a good feeling to know in our hearts we are doing our best in a world what is in serious trouble. By focusing on oil, water, paper, food or clothing, we are playing a part in cutting down on waste.
We must keep reminding us that it is easier to get into something than it is to get out of it. Actually, severe damage done to our land is fair recent in the history of our evolution. It's time for us to say no to waste so that our grandchildren's children will able to develop well.
