Beeeeeer! Cheeeers!

Beer does not have much of a foot print. around 800g of CO2! http://www.guardian.co.uk/environment/green-living-blog/2010/jun/04/carbon-footprint-beer).

Bear with me!

It’s not jus about carbon foot print but also about drunken driving, the act which has contributed significantly for India to seize No 1 rank in the world on account of road accidents (http://www.dw-world.de/dw/article/0,,5519345,00.html)

In recent times, “drinking” seems to have become the one & only “weekend plan option” and the very meaning of “having fun”. Economic liberalization, more money…more spending power have set a trend that justifies the “drunkenness” of gen-next as “to burn out the too much” they earn…

To state it on a lighter vein….they continues to bestow Mr Vijayamalya to go on with his race for world’s richest men list.

Though we live in an era which relates anything and everything to climate change & carbon foot print, there are things to which we learn to “call a spade a spade”! without linking it to higher value systems like….leaving lesser ecological foot prints.
