Just my thoughts #0767

Action and behavior are distinct. Action is an immediate response to a situation’s demands, while behavior is a voluntary response driven by will and intention. So, which one is more important? Both are essential. There is a time to act and a time to behave. The best approach is for your behavior to follow what you started with action. Immediate action is necessary to achieve results, and behavior is needed to put your will into action with a specific purpose or goal. A person who acts easily is practical, while a person who prefers behavior is strategic. But if you don’t act, nothing happens. The world we live in gains meaning after its occurrence and its consequences. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”

Just my thoughts #0169

Cotton needs 500 mm of water to produce cotton wool, and 1 kg of cotton wool requires 8,500 liters of water to fill 40 baths. A fashion company can make a pair of jeans from this. It needs at least 2,700 liters of water to create a T-shirt. This amount is enough for one person to use as drinking water for three years. Clothing consumption has recently increased by an average of 60% each year on Earth. The Aral Sea in Uzbekistan was the fourth-largest lake in the world, but it has now shrunk to one-tenth of its original size, as river water has been used to grow cotton due to increased consumption. Few people are concerned about how their consumption affects the global environment. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
