Hi Jennifer. I think a big part of the problem is the infrastructure of our society that makes it very hard for individuals to be as green as they would like to be. It’s when we reach limits (for example, communities planned so that you have to drive everywhere or stores that only carry products packaged in plastic) that we have to advocate for bigger changes.

Hi! I’m new to your blog and to the carnival, but I read (nearly) all the posts above with interest.

I was struck by how many people said with chagrin that they weren’t very green; that they were trying but had a lot of changes to make still; that even though they try hard, sometimes they slip up. It made me wonder if there will ever be a point when a person is “green enough.”

I wish there were targets: one green star for electricity usage of X amount, two green stars for water use of Y amount, etc.
