Forums » Forum Games » Furcadians: Win an Earth tag!

If you play Furcadia, pay close attention.

I have a little over 1 GD to spare and there's still some time left on the Earth Day Special.

How does this work? I can obviously only buy one tag, so the dice shall do the work! Roll 2 dice, each with 6 sides in your post. Don't forget to let us know what you do to help the earth along (such as recycling every day, unplugging power cords, turning the water off when you brush your teeth etc.)! Perhaps there are many ideas we can share or tips and tricks we don't know about yet.

The first person to get a 12 as diceroll will get an Earth Day tag for one Furcadian character of their choice. If you roll 12, please edit your post with the char's name or PM me.

Uhm...how do I roll a die?
Like this?

I recycle and learned how to make cleaning products with safer stuff and cheaper stuff. x3 Earth day field trip, ftw!

((Also, is it only one roll per person?))

Yup, one roll, unless nobody's rolling a 12 and we ran out of users to post here. Haha.

You now know how to roll a dice Celestina, congrats!

And you mean you MAKE your own cleaning products? As in soaps or detergent for the floors and stuff?

I myself actually crush cans at least once a week to take them to a scrap metal facility to be recycled. I also use cleaning solutions for more than what they would normally be used for in order to do my part to minimize the amount of airborne pathogens that could harm the ozone layer. Plus things I buy are mostly pre recycled. Unfortunately not everything I purchase comes in prerecycled containers and such. I'm also in the market to buy some trees to plant in some areas that lack them.

Yay!!
And well like, use stuff like teatree oil and a little bit of a small bottle of detergent and use newspaper instead of papertowels. If you mix together some stuff like the teatree oil, a couple drops of detergent and borax and stuff like that, you can make stuff like windex or stove cleaner and stuff like that. It was really cool

That's pretty sweet!


Just realized I didn't post about what I do.. Sannefail.

To begin with, I shower often, but I try to keep my shower time under 10 minutes. All my shower and beauty products (soap, shampoo, bodylotion etc) are from Lush. They handmake their products and because they contain mostly or only natural ingredients, they are not harmful to the environment as they are bio-degradable.

I separate my trash (plastic / paper etc.) and try to buy products with as little packaging as possible. The food I buy is 9 out of 10 times from animals that had the ability to roam in pastures and the like. I only buy fish from brands that are approved for responsible fishing and if something's imported, it HAS to be fairtrade.

I keep as few lights on as possible, and they're all... Uhm... What's the word? The energy saving kind of lightbulbs. Like right now, I only have 1 light turned on where I'm sitting. The rest of my apartment doesn't need light after all!

Uhm... other than that, I just try to have some common sense.

Sure! I'll have a go.

*rolls*

We do a lot-lot of recycling, here. It's something I've really noticed, actually, especially in the big trip I did across North America a couple of years ago - a lot of cities, especially in the states, don't have a huge infrastructure for recycling. Well, either that, or people just don't care to do it much. It's pretty easy to do here, though, so I figure why not?

FOR PONY!!!

Edit: Sowwy pony...

XDD LFG!!


I'm kinda concerned how many fives there are. ; the dice are plotting against us!

*gives it a go*

Might as well give it a tryyyyy ~

Throwing some dice just for fun...

Personally, I am a very food-conscious person who takes great care to eat food that was grown as locally as possible, raised or caught sustainably, and is free of pesticides and artificial hormones. But it's as much for my own health as it is for the planet.

I recycle as much as I can, and I'm in an area where we only recently got single-stream recycling! I still separate paper and plastic and trash. We have a gigantic pile of plastic bags in our kitchen because I don't let anyone throw them away. (Our recycle people don't take them so we bring them en masse to the grocery store.) I turn off lights whenever possible and I'm very conscious of how much our thermostat is turned to, especially in the winter. (Mainly because it kicks us hard in the wallet. ) Our house never gets above 65 degrees F in the winters. X) I like it cold, though!

Love that comic! I have a plush Richard

I'm just rolling because I'm bored ;_;

I work for a catering business (as well as a church.) We get in lots of orders in cardboard boxes and have a lot of recyclables. I managed to get the board to agree on having a large recycling bin brought on to the lot which helped us cut back a great deal on our garbage (there were times we had to get more than one dump in a week.)

You have a Plush Richard, Foxy?! I'm so jealous!!

Wow. Nobody's gotten it yet? That's surprising. xD

Fun idea! Here goes nothin'..

Might was well try it out since no one's got it yet. I recycle and reuse plastic bags to carry recycles in bunches to the recycle can. For a long while I had an old seat cover from a car on my computer chair.
