Answer 4

By living green, you pursue a life that impacts the environment less than most people. Most people who are 'green' conserve everything they can. Conserving can be as simple as turning off the water while you brush your teeth and as extreme as using recycled construction concrete to build your home.

Answer 5

Green living, as opposed to non-green living (would that be just living?) is a more conservation minded lifestyle.

Green living could be as simple as practicing basic conservation such as turning off lights when not needed, reducing water consumption, recycling waste or buying more of your food and goods from local sources.

At the extreme end you have those that live in near or total self sufficiency, producing their own organic food, using locally available materials or environment friendly alternatives to construct their homes and generating their own power through completely renewable means. Water could be provided by purifying rain water and waste water could be used to irrigate the fields.

To put it simply, green living is a conscious decision to reduce ones impact on the Earth by lowering the environmental impact of our current lifestyles, but the degree one reduces this impact to depends on the person.
