Ablorg: Tomo répond à vos questions sur l'écologie!

Citation :

This month I asked Tomo two eco-based questions that have been submitted by the Echelon and here are his answers:


1) we all know that the world is going through global warming
which is a natural process but with our bad behavior we’re making it
faster so i’d like to know what is it that you guys do to be friendly
with the environment on your daily activities?? (something that not many
people do but that you know it can make a big difference)- submitted by
Klau


TOMO: SOMETHING THAT I DO AT HOME IS UNPLUG MY APPLIANCES WHEN THEY
ARE NOT IN USE. MANY PEOPLE DON’T KNOW THIS BUT WHEN YOU LEAVE
APPLIANCES PLUGGED IN (TOASTER, MICROWAVE, ETC…) THEY ARE STILL RUNNING
ELECTRICITY THROUGH THEM. THIS IS SOMETHING THAT MOST PEOPLE PROBABLY
DON’T THINK OF BUT IS AN EASY THING TO DO AND WILL HELP A LOT, AND WILL
ALSO HELP KEEP YOUR ELECTRICITY BILLS DOWN AS WELL WHICH IS A BONUS ON
TOP OF IT ALL.


2) You guys have been touring around the world, what is the
biggest environmental problem you’ve seen on a global scale?- submitted
by Becks


TOMO: PLASTIC WATER BOTTLES. THESE HAVE BECOME A NORMAL PART OF OUR
LIVES AND PEOPLE SEEM TO THINK THAT THEY DON’T HAVE A BIG IMPACT.
PURIFY YOUR TAP WATER AT HOME, BUY GLASS BOTTLES, BUY WATER IN BULK. WE
ARE MORE GUILTY OF THIS THAN ANYONE SINCE WE ARE ALWAYS ON TOUR AND IT
HAS BECOME A NORMAL THING TO HAVE CASES OF WATER PROVIDED FOR THE BAND
AND CREW IN ORDER FOR US TO HAVE PURE DRINKING WATER. WE HAVE ACTIVELY
STARTED MAKING IT PART OF OUR RIDER TO PROVIDE WATER IN GLASS BOTTLES
FOR EVERYONE, AND ALSO FOR US TO CARRY AROUND ALUMINUM WATER CANISTERS
WITH PURIFIED TAP WATER IN THEM. THIS IS SOMETHING THAT WE SEE NO
MATTER WHERE WE GO AND THATS SCARY WHEN YOU THINK ABOUT HOW MUCH WE
TRAVEL AND HOW MANY PEOPLE THERE ARE IN THE WORLD…


Thank you to our Echelon members for your questions and remember to
keep sending them in! I’ll choose two more for this next month and have
them answered for you on the first of the month!
