Story Of Stuff

My role in the materials economy is that I always buy new electronics when they come out. One time I bought this new laptop that just came out. I used it for at least one year then the upgraded model came out, so I bought that. I wanted to sell my old laptop but it got beat up over the year so I decided the recycle it to my local electronic recycle area.

A lifestyle change I can make to reduce my global impact is to take less showers and don't use my T.V a lot. I have to take less showers because I take about 10 minutes per shower and I know I can reduce that to at least 3 minutes. 7 minutes makes a huge difference and can save a lot of gallons per year. I have to watch my T.V in my room less because it is a Plasma 54' and it uses a lot of electricity than other T.V's in my house. I can make the electricity bill go down by using my T.V less.
