I'm afraid not. To make it more practical, I invite you to answer the questionnaire on the graph are heading this note. Take a minute, calculate and record your answer, before you continue reading. For Please: do the exercise as you ... (you can double click the image to enlarge.) Well . Now that you have your calculation, let me tell you a citizen contemporary consume between 2,000 and 5,000 liters of water a day , depending on the level of development of the country where he has lived. Shocking, right? Do not worry: I do not I was right and I was puzzled when I found the question a few days ago. Have we been formed in a linear view of WORLD AND NOT IN A SYSTEMIC VIEW . Therefore, we measure each individual impact, and we can not measure synergistic impacts - and measure the direct impact, immediate, and we can not measure the indirect, consequential, ie impacts life cycle of each event. This
-not knowing how to measure the impact on the life cycle and synergistic impacts of our actions, not allow us to see realities basic but powerful. For example: you need to know how much water involved each of our daily, not just the water we consume directly through the bath, toilet use, beverages, etc. For illustration, I leave to your consideration the following figures, as documented by National Geographic:
1. Each glass milk you consume has required 200 liters of water in their production.
2. Each cup of coffee meant to enjoy the consumption of 140 liters water.
3. Each egg you add to your diet has needed 135 liters of water to be at your table.
4. A paper craft, you or your secretary use has involved the use of 10 liters of water.
5. Each kilo of meat , to be consumed at home, has involved 1,500 liters of water to get to your table.
When we know the impact on the life cycle of the products we eat and the synergies that generate all our actions, we begin to experience A NEW CONSCIOUSNESS as consumers and as human beings. And that change or extension of field of our consciousness itself can transform society, deep and lasting, we urgently need. Follow this path: it is my recommendation.
