I remember the 3 r’s from an elementary school assembly. Some traveling group came and talked to us about ‘Reduce, Reuse, Recycle’ and it wasn’t until years later that I realized they meant for those to be used in that order.

I’m okay at recycling, I’m not sure just how much reusing I can do, but I’m sure I can do a lot more reduction in my consumerism. My plan is not to have a car next year (bike everywhere in Seattle) and consume as little electricity as a nerd like me can stand to.
