Buy Nothing Day

This is a picture from the web, we don’t know who did it. On this picture you can see just a question « do you really need more ? ».Words are filled with marks. This allows the reader to ask the question.

The picture shows that everything you buy is useless. You can save money to buy real needs.

Today people no longer eat to live but live to eat, we no longer shop to survive we survive to shop.The more they can buy the more they buy. But the Buy Nothing Day is a protest that fights against it, against overconsumption, overpopulation and all environmental problems. But also against waste, pollution… For a simple pair of shoes more waste created, more non-renewable energy used for its manufacture and transport and sometimes also more mistreatment towards the people who worked in its manufacture.

Mud swiming takes the form of a race.

The concept is simple to carry out as quickly as possible a round trip in a muddy water ditch 55 meters long, or 120 yards in total.

Swimmers can use fins, malish and snorkels. However, there are prohibited from using traditionnal swimming techniques. The goal is to rely only on the powers of the fins

This sport look like swimming because both sport you have to swim and it’s a race except that is one al is swimming in water and the other in mud.

Swimming in mud is more interesting unlike swimming in water because it can be funny and it is quite surprising as a sport.

We have the right to snorkel contrary to swimming.

This sport is beneficial because it is extremely physical to swim in the mud because it is very thick so it’s more difficult to move around.

Moreover we think that it is funniest than the others since it is both serious because it is both serious because it is a real competition but also very fun because it is in mud.
