PleaseBlitz Posted January 27, 2009 Share Posted January 27, 2009 i go paperless as much as possible but not to save the environment just because i lose things. Im like you. I dont go out of my way to "be green" but it just works out that a lot of things are both "green" and convenient. I walk everywhere or use the metro........because i live in a city and driving is a pain in the rectum. I dont recycle b/c my apartment complex makes it too complicated. Given the choice of 2 products, i will never buy the one labeled "organic" My dog has helped fertilize most of the grass in Arlington. I never drink bottled water, I carry a Nalgene bottle with me everywhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boots Posted January 27, 2009 Share Posted January 27, 2009 I think we do ok. We recycle everthing we can. Both me and my wife drive fuel efficient cars(both hybrids). We keep our heat and ac at a resonable level and use a programable thermostat. We use the CFL's in almost all of our fixtures. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth Tater Posted January 27, 2009 Share Posted January 27, 2009 I walk, run or ride a bike most everywhere. Of course, this is more of an easy way to stay fit then anything else. Other times, it is about reducing use of resources. Don't usually recycle since doing most of it actually increases the use of resources. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SnyderShrugged Posted January 27, 2009 Share Posted January 27, 2009 I am pro conservation and responsibly protecting others private property. I am 100% against the "Green" religion as it's a farce and a scam. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boots Posted January 27, 2009 Share Posted January 27, 2009 I am 100% against the "Green" religion as it's a farce and a scam. How so? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SnyderShrugged Posted January 27, 2009 Share Posted January 27, 2009 How so? because it has very little to do with conservation and more to do with cap and trade style scams that really have little impact on the environment as a whole. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cherick Posted January 27, 2009 Author Share Posted January 27, 2009 It is interesting that I haven't seen many here talking about saving water. I thought I was the only one who find it kinda difficult. For example, I do the dishes after my wife cooks or whatever, and I try to keep the water running to a minimum, but it is just damn hard. Also when taking a shower, I just can't get used to turn the water off while shampooing or usin the body wash, etc. and then turn it on again to rinse, I just have it running the whole time, or maybe turn it down a little. I'm very lazy when it comes to wash my car, I don't do it often at all, so I guess I save some water there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forehead Posted January 27, 2009 Share Posted January 27, 2009 You know what this reminds me of. That King of the Hill episode where they were making fun of Carbon Offsets, buying trees to supposedly reduce your Carbon Footprint. What a crock.

pjfootballer Posted January 27, 2009 Share Posted January 27, 2009 I recycle newspapers. We try to run only full loads of laundry. We changed the lightbulbs to the curly ones. I want to recycle plastic, aluminum and glass, but I just don't have the space. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
