#seagypsyjungle

Some years ago Jade forbad Richard from posting on #seagypsyvillage as it’s for highlighting the beauty of Pualu Sibu and the Iskandar Marine Park in order to attract guests. Not for photos and stories about Sea Gypsies having what can only be described as a great deal of sweaty fun. Whilst “village” does attract new guests to our home we find that once they’ve stayed with us the only insta they wish to follow is “jungle”, apparently watching Sea Gypsies at work & play is jolly interesting!

DID YOU KNOW?

Not Such Fun Facts from the Sea Gypsies

Overconsumption is one of the earth’s leading causes of climate change. It isn’t just food, it’s everything from the clothing on your back to the amount of internet you consume daily. The average household holds 300,000 items, we buy 5x more clothes than we did in 1980. If every person on earth lived like the average working class westerner, we would need 5 earths to sustain it! We are currently consuming at a rate 1.7 times the earth’s resources, we don’t have 1.7 earths, we only have one. A mere 20% of the earth’s population are consumers of 80% of it’s resources.

So, this holiday season, please take the time to think about your purchases, your needs, leave it in your cart for a while and think, do I really need this? Meanwhile enjoy the first scene from the classic Wall-E, which will help remind us all what we are doing when we over consume.
