I really could have cared less about recycling until my son was born. Now I try to be conscious of what goes in the garbage can at home.
Almost all the bulbs (wherever we can use them) in the house and the bakery are compact fluorescent because of the cost savings, not the energy conservation. I also try not to let the water run un-necessarily and shut off lights not being used, but again for cost savings. When you start paying utility bills you understand why your parents were always up your ass about stuff like that.

I'm trying to reduce my dust footprint.
According to my wife, it seems that every time I walk outside, I track in dust and leave footprints on our hardwood floors. I am going to work hard on improving this problem. |

I drive whereever I go REALLY fast b/c the less time on the road the less carbon your car spews.....now I just need to get that v10 M5 with 500hp to get there REALLY REALLY fast! See the Toyota Prius is really slow so you spend more time on the road therefore emitting more carbon into the atmosphere...

We should set up a carbon-trade economy here. Where those with large carbon footprints send cigars to those with small carbon footprints.
Did I mention I drive a two cylinder car only on weekends (that runs on discarded kitchen grease), don't own a single light, only use water heated by the radiator of my car, and am posting this purely by telepathic powers. |

I never say the word "plethora" out loud.
I stopped listening to the Electric Light Orchestra I stopped being afraid of the Bing Cherry Monster and therefore, stopped using a night light. I've reduced the amount of gravestone rubbings I do per year. I stopped bathing in asbestos. I use Sklee instead of gasoline. TARDIS MCS

![]() I think my parental admonitions--from pretty much the time I could walk--are more of a reason I do the things I do, rather than any sort of altruistic motivation to "save the planet." The planet is going to be here long after my great-grandchildren are gone. ![]() My wife always complains that "we're not living in the Great Depression," but there are just some habits I can't shake. To that end we: recycle everything we can--our bins are almost always more full than our trashcan turn off the lights when leaving a room turn off the water when brushing teeth take short showers (at least I don't turn the water off when I'm soaping up, as we used to do when growing up. or when camping.) wash pretty much all of our laundry in cold water have natural gas heating, water heater, range & oven use an environmentally sound, oxygen-based sanitizing product in my homebrewing equipment upgraded all appliances to energy efficient models in the past 4-5 years drive cars that get 20+ mpg (but no Prius/hybrid crap) eat leftovers compost really old leftovers And I'm trying to build a nuclear-powered home generator, but these unmarked helicopters keep circling. ![]()
