It really makes you think about ...Wow - no plastic. It really makes you think about how ubiquitous plastic is on our daily life. I agree that a compromising approach to greener living is the way to go. Extremes often discourage and polarize the general public as many people may not have the means to adopt certain green living practices. For example, my backyard is not big enough to support a clothesline. But that is because I choose to live downtown, don't own a car, cycle to work and walk or use public transport to get most everywhere. As such, even though I have a tumble dryer, my compromise is that I don't emit carbon through burning gas in a car. I take small steps every year and it is starting to add up. And I think more people are doing it in this manner and things will start getting better. Well maybe that is me being too optimistic!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
