I have been working to change all of my lightbulbs from incandescent to CFL. Only problem is that the new bulbs don't work with dimmer switches. Whoever invents a solution for that will make a killing. Anyway, it's a small start, but I've at least added the CFL bulbs where I can, and left the incandescent bulb in places that have dimmer switches. In terms of recycling, yes, I've made a lot of progress there.

 

Every week the bins for paper, plastic, glass, and metal are always full. And I don't just do newspapers, cans and bottles; any clean scrap of plastic or paper will find its way into the right bin. Any disposable plastic food containers, such as yogurt containers, etc., get a quick wash and then recycled. I'll keep working on being a good citizen of the planet.

Teaching my kids to respect the planet is important as well. I could use some tips on that.

Home and Office: 
I always turn the lights off when I leave the room. I turn the thermostat lower (even when my wife turns it right back up).
Transportation: 
Nothing hybrid yet, but next car is a Prius. We live walking distance to shops so walk a lot with the kids.
Job & Career: 
I try not to work. That helps to minimize my work-related carbon footprint.
Diet: 
We've actually begun to do the buy-local-food thing by visiting our local farmers market on weekends. It's now open year-round.

An attention-grabbing

An attention-grabbing discussion is worth comment. I believe that you must write more on this subject, it may not be a taboo topic however usually individuals are not enough to talk on such topics. To the next. Cheers

In 1962 Silent Spring by

In 1962 Silent Spring by American biologist Rachel Carson was published. The book cataloged the environmental impacts of the indiscriminate spraying of DDT in the US and questioned the logic of releasing large amounts of chemicals into the environment without fully understanding their effects on ecology or human health.642-873 The book suggested that DDT and other pesticides may cause cancer and that their agricultural use was a threat to wildlife, particularly birds.The resulting public concern led to the creation of the United States Environmental Protection Agency in 1970 which subsequently banned the agricultural use of DDT in the US in 1972.RH202 The limited use of DDT in disease vector control continues to this day in certain parts of the world and remains controversial. The book's legacy was to produce a far greater awareness of environmental issues and interest into how people affect the environment.70-536 With this new interest in environment came interest in problems such as air pollution and petroleum spills, and environmental interest grew. New pressure groups formed, notably Greenpeace and Friends of the Earth.
