Going Green: Subliminal Nature
When you fall asleep at night, what is the last thing you think about? Do you think about all the stresses of the past day, maybe the movie you just watched with your spouse, or the garbage that you forgot to take out? No matter what you’re thinking about, probably the last thing on your list is environmental consciousness. Yes, you turn off the lights and turn down the fans when you’re going to sleep, but you do this for comfort as much as energy-saving. Maybe, when you wake up in the morning, there is a little thing you can do for yourself to make you think about the environment and appreciate all that it has to offer: and in an ironic twist of fate, I am going to suggest the nature sounds alarm clock.
The world is divided into two parts: those that rely on standard beeps of electronics, phones, or alarm clocks to welcome them to the morning, or those that rely on more natural methods, like sunrise, cocks crowing, or maybe even the dog jumping on the bed, all excited for it’s morning walk. Maybe you don’t have a rooster or a dog and are not reliable enough to wake up from the sun–think about getting a nature sounds alarm clock.
