Fixing The World

It seems like the left wants to fix the world but they don't want to fix themselves. We see this over and over again they are so keen on global warming and saving the earth but watch when they have a demonstration, they trash the place.  I heard just on the news again the 2nd amendment protestors cleaned up after themselves, but watch what happens when it is a left protest. Remember the Pipeline protest on an Indian Reservation in North Dakota. You should have seen the place, it was almost a hazardous site. But they are worried about the mother earth. I can't fix the world but I will tell you what I do on my street. I pick up the trash that others throw out.  The plastic, the paper, the fast-food wrappers, the aluminum cans. I say this as a challenge to my leftist critic, what are you doing in your neighborhood? Do you pickup trash, do you care for mother earth in your neighborhood? It is fine to critique the whole world but what are you doing? Actions speak louder than words. On an almost daily basis, I try to put in 4,000 steps a day to pick up aluminum cans that others throw out. Last month I turned in $17 worth of aluminum cans, I expect this month will be more. $17 is not a lot of money, but I will tell you it represents a lot of aluminum cans. We see it with the global warming promotors, they want to tell us how to take care of planet earth, bringing on more controlling regulations and banning plastic straws while the majority of these elites flew private jets to their meeting.  Years ago in a small apartment in North Everett, I saw a lot of kids in the neighborhood in the park across the street. I offered them 50 cents or a dollar to pick up trash along the street in our neighborhood.  After that, they would ask me if they saw me sitting on the porch if there was anything they could do to earn some change. If I saw trash along the street, that is what I sent them to do and I paid them out of my own pocket. I know 50 cents is not much, but I was struggling to pay child support and live myself.  Every year I try to get rid of a few tires that people throw out in the woods over the previous years before I lived here. I ask any leftist, what are you doing on a personal level to fix the planet that you are so concerned about. What do you do to clean up your neighborhood? Or do you just vote in more regulations to control others? The only person you can fix is number one, yourself. I can't stop people from throwing out the garbage but I can pick it up in my neighborhood. Put your money where your mouth is. Actions speak louder than words. We can fix the world, one person, at a time. Starting with number one. God bless, LVZ.
