Going green...

As I stated before I don't think our small efforts of buying "green" grocery bags, recycling, and turning off the water when shaving our legs will save the planet. Drastic measures must be taken to alleviate the environmental harm we have put on this earth. It's like the analogy Professor Nicholson used: we're driving to Canada but we need to go to Mexico; we can't just slow the car down. I can't give any suggestions as to how we can fix the planet, but I can say that just doing the minimum effort won't change the situation. One may feel good about themselves, and it may have a very very very slight impact, but it won't change things on a global scale. Kind of depressing...
