Do you know what is your CSE rating? I believe before getting to know about your rating you might be wondering on what CSE stands for and how it is calculated. I did kind of invented(or discovered) this term so I would be the one to reveal what it stands for.
CSE stands for 'Contribution for Safe Environment'. By this time many of you already heard about Global warming, Ice ages, Deadly Hurricanes & Earthquakes and all such stuff which are caused because of the potential harming agents released into our environment. There are lot more theories in explaining all these factors but the conclusion of everything is that "Save our environment". Yes - Save trees, reduce pollution, reduce toxic gases release, keep control of Lethal gases polluting our proto spheres......so on

Now lets come to the point on CSE rating. This rating reflects your contribution towards Safer and Cleaner environmental policies. Before getting onto this discussion, I would like to share my thoughts on what propelled me to think about the term CSE rating.
I do have a kind of annoying habit of using lots of paper napkins (Paper cloth, tissues....whatever you want to call). In fact I use them a lot more that what the usage supposed to be. The reason for this massive usage I can say is they are cheap and available in plenty. One day (in march'09) I was travelling to Florida and I had a stop Atlanta airport. I was using a restroom and when I entered, saw a lot more used napkins fell on the ground(quite awkwardly) as the trash bin is filled completely up to its brim. And when I was washing my hands I notice everybody using napkins ,in fact heavily, though there are electronic dryer machines installed. Perhaps every body is busy and want things to be quick and conveniently done. I felt quite bad on why people are not using electronic ways of cleaning their hands so that at least they will not be responsible to waste that many napkins and make the floor disgusting. Then I saw a person in front of me using about 6-7 napkins to clean his hands and further more.... I felt really bad about that person and thought he is not doing that right. 2 - 3 napkins should suffice his need to dry his hands after washing. I questioned him straight away whether is there a need to use so many napkins? Further asked him that does he think what he is doing now is right? Does it not make him feel bad? He was so em brassed when I was questioning him and so do I. Why me embarrassed..? The other person is no other but me standing in front of mirror holding about 7-8 napkins in my hand.
From that moment I felt I need to stop this kind of usage on paper napkins. Also decided that I need to do something from my side which contributes for safer environment policies. People , this environment is huge and my single handed contribution might not be good enough for it.....but I would at least have satisfaction on my contribution that I am a part for delivering cleaner environments. To continue this practice through out my life I decided that I would choose one item every year from now on which would contribute for Clean environment practices...anything which helps to reduce the effects on all type of disasters I mentioned above. So, I started this year with saving paper napkins as far as I can. This would contribute further on saving trees , further on reducing corbon-di-oxide levels in air, further recude the temperatures , further reducing the effect of environmental disasters. Its like a chain reaction.
So this year I started (quite late though)with controlling my usage on Paper napkins(Its not like I will not use them at all,you should definitely, but in an optimum way). I will decide starting next year on the next item contributing for safer environments. You might think that with this plan I would save paper napkins( and so trees) only for this year but thats not true. As I am practicing this from an year and will get habituated to it and so would continue with the additional contributional items you decided to do in coming years. So, basically I would be helping to maintain cleaner and safer environments in about 50 - 60 ways(Right know I am 25 and based on the stats of average human life I got this approx. number) which makes me pretty much satisfactory.
CSE claculation is simple and the formula is below:
CSE = (Number of years you did implementing your contributions) / (Your age)
So right now as per this plan....I started implementing from this year and so my rating is 1/25 = .04 Some bullet points about CSE:
1. There is nothing like good or bad score for this. But your score would go on increasing once you implement your plans each year. Honestly, I would say any score > 0 is good which says that you had contributed at least an year for delivering safer environments.
2. 0.5 score indicates that you contributed in more than half ways for safer environments in your life up to that point.(This would happen I believe for everybody in their close to retirement ages if they start and continue to implement this plan in their college going ages). This gives you nice satisfaction that half of the the life you are contributing efforts for protecting the environments.
3. There is a bonus score if you implement these plans continuously for 3 years. Add .02 to your existing rating calculated if you implement your plans continuously for 3 years.
4. There is another score related to the CSE referred as
'Contribution Item Score (CIS)'. This score reflects on how many ways you are contributing your efforts to safer and cleaner environments. It is calculated in the following manner.
Lets say each year you decided to do a thing to contribute for safer environments which is referred as 'Contribution Item'. Each of this item you decided to do every year will get 1 point. So first year when you start this plan your score would be 1. And in second year if you choose another contribution item and also continue with the old contribution item you did for last year, then you are having 2 contribution items in second year that contribute to the safer environments.
So your CIS score is 3 in second yearand is calculated like this
1(First year item)+ 2 (Second year Items) = 3 If we see the other case where in second year you choose to not continue with the contribution item you did in the first year , then you would have only one contribution item in second year.
So your CIS score in this case is 2 in second year and is calculated as below
1(First year items) + 1(Second year items) = 2Basically it is the addition of number of contribution items you are having each year.I think I am clear on how the ratings and scores are calculated.
Now whatz your score people....? What is your contribution to our safer environmental policies? I believe these contributions are not tough ones to ask.
Feel free to post any comments on this post. Thanks!
