Are we doing enough?

We learned about 7 blind men trying to figure out how an elephant looks like. Each has his own perspective of the element from their derivations. None of them were totally incorrect and neither of them were totally right. I always remind myself to look at things with all aspects and angles, it would not be fair to stigmatized any society for being socially conscious about going green.
I felt that it was an irony that the developing countries, which has lesser of information technology and knowledge , are doing a lot more than our developed societies. The Filipinos pick up used chips foil bags and sow them into recycled bags. The Chinese buy die cut disposable diaper waste pieces from The States to recycle into fan blades. These are people using any limited resources available for them to recycle for SURVIVAL. On the contrary, when you try to visit any fast food restaurant on weekend mornings in Singapore, the places are packed with families swamping in to buy breakfast using foam packaging for hotcakes and breakfast sets. The unrecyclable garbage created was beyond imaginations. You will probably be the center of attractions if you walk in with a self prepared container to pack your own hotcakes for takeout. It is a true but a painful reality that I need to mock at myself as a Singaporean. Be it conscious or not, it has become a fact that the poorer one is, the more effort they have put in going green.
On the other hand, there are developed countries that is relentlessly promoting going green at national level. Japan has very organized recycling system and is constantly still trying to improve on it.
So are we doing enough? The answer starts at oneself, the three Golden "R" ie Reduce, Reuse and Recycle is for you to start now and don't wait for somebody to do it.
