stop global warming

This is strong advice to help counteract global warming, becoming vegetarian:

“Last month, the United Nations published a report on livestock and the environment with a stunning conclusion: “The livestock sector emerges as one of the top two or three most significant contributors to the most serious environmental problems, at every scale from local to global.”

another fascinating website: http://www.recyclethis.co.uk/
this as the title states is all about recycling things you had no idea were recyclable.

All of the global warming makes me so nervous. Sometimes I think it is unfair because of course I want children, but then I also think too hard about things. I don’t know that I want to bring them into a world with these problems that they in turn will have to deal with… or bring more people here to exacerbate the problem (although I, of course, think I would raise a diligent, intelligent, and conscious human)

A few things I’ve done:

*became vegetarian
*We take our own bags to the grocery
*we take public transportation or walk
*we have a small apartment with low heat
*we seperate and recycle our trash
*written my environmenal studies teacher from high school 
way back when and offered to donate a copy of 
'An Inconvient Truth' to the school 
-if they do not own one 
(think of all of those young minds! & only one $20 DVD!)

Germany is not a horrible place to live and develop a smaller ecological footprint. All in all it is evident that people really are environmentally conscious (except for this Bavarian carnivorous streak).

move to Germany! I tell you what the people here bike nearly everywhere, they take their own bags to the grocery or need to pay for bags if you forget, they recycle everything everywhere.

Start small... every little bit helps! My sister is bringing the inconveient truth when she visits which I am sure will make me panic even more. This was the #1 thing on a 20/20 special that will destroy us and (obviously) the world.
