I think I will have to get directly involved. I need to feel like I'm doing something.
I already admitted to Chrysta that I cheated a bit on the list, because I do a lot of those things more for my personal health than for the health of the planet. I confess that a lot of it has to do with my financial health as well, when it comes to avoiding A/C, driving, and the dryer. I'm sure the earth doesn't mind if I benefit personally from my environmental correctness. :)
I only mentioned cable because as I understand it, the average household has the tv on more than 4 hours a day. With big screens getting more popular, sometimes that means they're drawing more power for that than for the refrigerator (the biggest power draw in most homes). I could have just said I don't watch a lot of tv. :)
