CHALLENGING CULTURAL NORMS

On my soap box again 😛

I know that many people realize that our cultural norms are a major factor in causing the extinction all life.

But still conform to these social norms:

Not because they are worried about what others think:

 but because these attitudes are “hard wired”.

WASPs (as in White Anglo Saxon Protestant) believe that we own things

Don’t like a messy garden with leaves on the driveway:

Don’t like bird poop on their home or cars:

Don’t want flies ants and other insects in their homes:

Snails in their vegie patch:

Or birds eating the vegetables or fruit:

AND THERE IS MORE

I am not immune

Technically I am a WASP

And I realize that hygiene is necessary particularly with covid- 19

I believe we will restore the ecological balance:

David Attenborough’s

Life On Our Planet

Suggests we stop using fossil fuels and more — worth watching

We need a major attitude change:

How will this happen while multinationals rule the world?

Sorry this is only a trailer – Hope that you have NETFLIX

HAPPY NEW YEAR
