GREEN Style: Sharing is an effective mean of going Green

What is green? Well, we all can say more than one definition of what is green. I know you all are right. Green symbolizes what is natural, what is new. Green is that technology that preserves our nature. Green is the food that nourishes us without doing harm to us. A green lifestyle is a lifestyle that does not harm animals and is sustainable. Here, I want to add green thinking that includes any thought to protect bio-diversities and protect the emotions of all animals including human beings.

So, green is safe; safe for you, safe for me, and safe for everybody. What we do throughout our lives is to safeguard our lives and that of our loved ones. Yet, in today’s interconnected world, living a truly green life is not straightforward. For example, while we buy organic food and travel to a distant place, we emote carbon in the environment. While we buy green products, fossil fuels could be used in the manufacturing process, or for transportation, heavy lorries with diesel engines were used. 

So complex! What will we do? Shall we stop thinking green? Shall we stop striving to be eco-friendly because it also harms the environment? Of course not!

However, it is our consciousness that will save us. Our Ethics will save us. Small, thoughtful changes can make a big difference. Minimal use of vehicles that use fossil fuels can be of great benefit. Sharing among family members, neighbors, colleagues, and friends not only controls carbon emotion but also strengthens ties among us.

Hence, we all are busy. Is everyone busy at the same time? What do you see in your neighborhood every morning? Hundreds of cars are leaving for schools, colleges, offices, businesses, and shopping malls. Many of them are going in the same direction. Here sharing can be a great choice. Maybe we are not used to it. We need to change ourselves and we can do it. That’s why the car-pooling app is a successful business case.

Another transformative example of sharing is the internet. The Internet is sharing information on every PC, laptop, mobile and other devices online. It allows us to share our feelings, thoughts, joy, and pain across the globe. While we make our sales successful through sharing and make known our products through sharing, there are thousands of examples of our sharing. Into our subconscious mind, we share. It is in our DNA, that’s how civilization evolved.

However, the use of the Internet in business is one of the biggest doors to becoming green in many cases. We have already known the truth. Can you imagine how buying and selling online can save energy and time? There are many other ways, we can find, we just need to be open-minded. Our lives, from childhood to old, are enriched by sharing. What we do not need, we can share it with others. We have seen start-ups for sharing books, expensive clothes, accessories, etc.

In conclusion, adopting a green lifestyle is great! But it should not be a personal habit only, rather it should inspire others to join us in protecting the planet. The real impact comes from innovation and collective efforts. Let’s not only stand out by going green; instead, let’s make a difference by encouraging more people to adopt a sustainable lifestyle.
