Reduce GLOBAL WARMING non-Literate Way :)

-->
Every Small portion of thing in crisis is useful


Water shortage - every drop of water counts
Electricity shortage - every unit counts
Money Shortage - every penny/paisa counts

When it’s Global Warming – Every LETTER printed counts
I extend this argument to PAPER SPACE – when you need to save PAPER every LETTER counts

-->
HOW
LETTER Saved=>Less Space Needed=>Less Paper Required=>Less Trees Cut=>Reduced GLOBAL WARMING

Every letter eradicated saves some space. And Saved Space is directly proportional to saved trees or reduced Warming

We can Start by using one size smaller font :)
There are many ways to do it, let’s go step wise
1.    Remove the USELESS letters. Nobody knows who put them there.
For example P in pneumonia; Cupboard and Psyche; B in Debt; M in Mnemonic;L in Calf, Half, Talk, Walk etc.They are just there serving no purpose because no one said why?
If we just remove these letters we save a Letter with no COST
2.    All written EXAMS are a major source of paper waste. Ideally eliminate the exams (or do them electronically)—If Not possible then keep word limit and deduct marks for every extra LETTER written
3.    Replace are by r and AND by & ( I guess no Explanation Required)
4.    Destroy all Synonyms of 1 word leaving the only 1 that needs least space

Just to see the magnitude
We save space = (No. of words with useless letters) X (No. of books) X (No. of occurrences of the words in the book)
  • we can look at using SMS language, banning Authors who write big books............
  • i will add Bharat's name in Credits too :)

Healthy food also reduces global warming.

If people ate healthy food, they would need less toilet paper and if they are using more, just one flush.
