A routine day in the United States

This is a routine day in the United States:

200,000 tons of edible food is thrown out

313 million gallons of fuel, enough to drain 26 tractor-trailer trucks every minute, is used

18 million tons of raw materials are taken from the Earth

6.8 billion gallons of drinking water is used to flush toilets

1 million bushels of litter is thrown out of car windows

187,000 tons of paper is used

Pathetic.

We can make those numbers MUCH bigger. Get cracking, people!

(Stop crying and start eating.)

(Hey, it's fun to drive a tractor.)

18 million tons of raw materials are taken from the Earth

(Like the earth needed them anyway.)

6.8 billion gallons of drinking water is used to flush toilets

(I CAN'T HELP IT IF I GO TO THE BATHROOM THAT OFTEN.)

1 million bushels of litter is thrown out of car windows

(Do you want the environment of the inside of your car to be as dirty as it is outside of it?)

187,000 tons of paper is used

(ONLY BECAUSE I CANT DRAW THAT WELL! STOP MAKING FUN OF ME.)

I think my reasons are just!
