I drive a scooter…..
Most of you probably get around 20 mpg, some 30mpg and a couple 40mpg (must be nice to afford a hybrid)….well I am at about 75-80 mpg (makes me more then twice as good as all of you…actually that is a big understatement) and me being me, I wouldn’t be satisfied stopping there. Mr. Environmental is who I am, I made sure I found a place to live with no air conditioner or heater so I can conserve energy too. I chose to not shave, I just use hair clippers to trim my facial hair so I will conserve water, not because the girls think it looks so sexy, it is because being Mr. Environmental is just a way of life for me. My favorite quote and one I live my life by was told to me by an old Chinese friend…”Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day. Teach a man to fish and you feed him for a lifetime.”
So it is natural for me to try and teach others to be the same….
Example 1
I was at the bar the other night (great social place to spread the word “Go Green”) and as always when you do good things people like you because your a good person. This of course leads to the making of friends and being I am Mr. Environmental, I made a friend. The story of this friend starts with the calling of a cab for a ride home, then heroically I intervened and offered my new friend a ride on my scooter instead (no charge of course) and not only where we going to be helping the environment but also I guaranteed this friend would have the time of their life. This friend I made (we will call her Sarah…or Kathy…one of those should work) was so excited she bought me breakfast in the morning on the ride home. This friend has since expressed more interest in going on some scooter rides. Unfortunately to many requests.
Example 2
I give free lessons to any females that want to learn how to ride a scooter. Some might wonder why just females and the reason is simple, if your a guy and you need lessons to ride a scooter you have more important problems to address. I am very proud of the track record of Sexy Scooter Student Training, we have not had an accident to date and every student has passed. Of course I do this free of charge, one reason is because people are struggling with the poor economy but the biggest reason is simple, I like helping people.
Some Alumni….
To participate in the Sexy Scooter Student Training (enrollment is very limited) please send a head shot to jonathan@startdoinggood.com with the following: Height, Weight, and all other measurements. (All for safety precautions)I know everyone is thinking after reading the first part that I am already the most environmentally friendly person you know but I am hoping for some competition…the earth would be the real winner. The truth is that I have only shared a very small part of my “Green” lifestyle.
Reuse, Reduce, Recycle is my motto. (Considering getting a tattoo of it…gangster writing across my back) Everyone that is reading this should look in the mirror and wonder what shape your leaving the world to your kids. I could go on and on about how great of an environmentally friendly life style I live but I am a really humble guy and hate talking about myself. I let others do the talking for me.
Al Gore once told me the following:
“Rev…People should make monuments to your Environmental Awesomeness”
Bill Clinton once said:
“Reverend J…You are a real life Yoda”
It is understandable that you are all going to want to print this out to share with everyone that comes to your house or laminate it to put on you coffee table but here are a couple things to remember from Mr. Environmental :
Printing this email makes Al Gore cry.
Printing emails is the new child abuse.
You would probably kill 8.3% of a tree every time you print this.

However….
If man was not meant to print his emails, he would not have been given the gift of toner.
Have a Green Day.
