PONDERINGS:The Cost of Sustainabl extras
I was reading a comment by Caroline Pidcock (currently pres. of the Australian Sustainable Built Environment Council) in the Sydney Morning Herald March 24-25.
She said:
"I've seen alot of clients not query how much they spend on consumer goods and gagets for the house, such as televisions and stereo systems, but complain about how much a water tank is to put in." (My Career p8)
So true Caroline. Indeedy, some folk boast proudly of the excessive amounts they spent on a plasma TV or other item for the home.
Let us be pround of the amounts we are spending on our sustainable extras.
Money well spent, in my account book.
