Will Someone Please Get This to the Right Person?
As one of the owners of Modern Mermaids, I hope that it’s obvious that I am eco-conscious and care about our world and the “greening” of it.
So here’s my issue of late and if anyone knows anyone who can get this to whoever our new Eco-Advisor to the President is, great!
For four months last winter South Florida was gloriously cool. So cool that most of our doors and windows remained open during the day and were actually closed in the evening as it was chilly.
My Question: WHY IS IT THAT IN EVERY STORE I ENTERED, WHETHER IT BE CLOTHING, GROCERY, DRUGSTORE, ETC., IT WAS COLDER THAN OUTSIDE??? Does it really take so many human brain cells to recognize that by somehow using the outside air to cool the inside it is not only environmentally corrrect but cost effective as well! How many hundreds of thousands of dollars were spent by keeping the thermostat at 65 degrees when it could’ve been at 70 and comfy. It was actually uncomfortably cold in many places and when walking outdoors was just as bad. I understand the summer situation and hope to never spend another August in FL but in January when it’s a dry, gorgeous 68?
So it brings me back to my condescending manner of questioning the abililty of people to think! Major energy deficit going…come on then and think! Shut off the AC and open the doors!!! If the thousands of stores would’ve done this last winter, imagine the energy savings….
Once again, if anyone knows who to send this to…let me know or just do it!
And for all three of you who read this…Bertha and I thank you.
