Answer 4

Do you want to be a hippie, or just change a little?   Try walking to the mailbox instead of driving 50 feet.   Plant a bush in your lawn so you don't have so much lawn to cut.   Roll down your windows for a few seconds after your vehicle has been sitting in the sun before turning on the a/c.

Answer 5

Its true that the degree of difficulty depends largely on where you live.

However, if you live in a location where it is possible to do so because the correct appliances and such are actualy sold, then it is not so much difficult as it is a matter of breaking old habits..

If you can stand waiting an extra .2 seconds for your lights to turn on, then you should be alright

Answer 7

It's a simple word. Funrifice.

To get green and enjoy it, you have to make it fun. A fun sacrifice. If you can't do that then you'll be miserable and won't stick with it.

If you do make everything you do green a funrifice, you'll never look back. You'll be doing things you never thought you'd enjoy. It's great to feel good about yourself and know you're doing the right thing.

...which makes you feel better about yourself

...which encourages you to do more

...loop again and again :O)

Start with something easy and rewarding, like growing a few basic salad vegies to put in your sandwiches/meals. I guarantee they'll not only give you an unexpected thrill to see them grow, but taste SOOOOOO much better than the supermarket c**p, AND taste even better because you grew them yourself.

Answer 8

If you live in places where recycling and alternative products are available, then it's pretty easy actually. Unfortunately, if you live in NorthWest Oklahoma it's d**n near impossible!
