    Nothing, it's fine

    Unlike most other things in life, there is no Plan B for the planet. It is the most precious resource we possess: the only planet of its type in the known universe, the only planet we know of capable of sustaining life. Mankind has changed its home more than any other species. We have shaped our landscape in ways that would have been impossible just 150 years ago. Unfortunately, this includes changing our world for the worse. While it's true that the earth has been through bigger things than us and will heal its wounds over time, we have certain responsibilities as the dominant species on the planet and the caretakers of our world. In my daily life, I've taken some small steps to reduce my impact: recycling when possible, biking or walking when possible, and using public transportation are a few of them. I know that I probably won't make any lasting impression on the earth in the first place, but it makes me feel good to think I'm leaving my home a little nicer than I found it.

    Answer to question: I'm doing something similar to TBNolan minus the moving part. I've also switched out nearly all of the light bulbs in my home to energy saving bulbs. I've stopped using paper and plastic grocery bags in favor of a reusable cloth bag. I've also started watching my water consumption when it comes to showering, brushing my teeth, etc. Too bad the world is doomed anyway...

    Note to TBNolan: I used to idle IRC with you... I think.
  • Still idling, sir. Where do you find yourself these days?

    I've got two reusable cloth bags in the car at all times for groceries; if I leave my car and forget them, I usually turnaround walk back to get one or both. I've been using low volume water pressure on my showers for years now. I recycle more often, using the recycle trash can the city gave me to fill with bottles, cans, trays, and paper. I'm conscious of what I print out, and when I can try to make do by entering info onto my smartphone to avoid unnecessarily printouts.

    I have been trying to recycle aluminum cans as much as possible. I was brought up as a young lad separating cans from the normal garbage. It's ingrained in me at this point.

    We recycle and bike as much as possible. We also cut down our use of print media, in favor of websites like yours to get our info and news!!
  • My company works with local businesses -primarily hospitality sector- to facilitate the recycling of metals and plastics that aren't otherwise filtered out before being wasted. In conjunction with local Return-It locations, we are able to realize a small profit for our clients in order to further their incentive to continue recycling all that they can from what their industry requires that they use.
