Going for green living will save everything... just like cutting energy consumption around our home and business will help us to save money while preserving the mother earth for the next generation. Theres a lot of tips in green living not just in energy but also in food etc.. start from one then it will save lot...

Yes,
It is true going green is good as well it is thr process of saving everything. As by going green we can save the earth, our environment. Moreover Green products are good for our health also. SO there are lots of benefits by going green, so we can seay that going green will save everything.

I also have Jaunty Albatross' book! Absolutely, women must either choose or be forced to have one child only, to return the Earth to sustainability. It is probably too late for even this to work, so only those of sufficient sense to understand and live sustainably should be the ones to have one child--sterilize the rest. Or just wait for nature to cause mass deaths by resource depletion and pollution.

yes....going green is important.Here you can find tips and information on geo solar homes and other energy saving techniques.

Go green !!! Think Green!!!

I agree that going green CAN save a lot of money. Unfrotuantely for consumers it is qutie a bit more expensive to go green than it is for business, who will most likely save money from going green. I do believe that going green can save money, but there is usually an initial investment that needs to be paid off before it actually saves the investor money.

Any house with an electric clothes dryer or any electric heat, is an inefficient energy hog. Shameless advertising of what amount to trinkets toward true green are pointless. Too many people =too many salesmen.
At the rates of aquifer, soil, oceanic fisheries, and oil depletion, with the increasing effects of global pollution, the amount of people that can live like now will decrease to around 50% by 2050. If you go by the number of people the planet can support at starvation level it is 75% of the 7 billion now. There are about 130 million births per year and 50 million deaths. If humanity can reduce the number of births per year to 4 million, then the natural death rate would have the world at just above starvation level under the best case scenario for water, food, and pollution effects in 2050. People will have to eat locally grown foods and drink local water, mostly. Mass poverty and no oil will make it so. Some places will run out of food or water and crash. However, the birthrate must drop to about 3% of present to avoid a general crash that would be of over 1/2 billion deaths per year. With the 40 year lag to oceanic warming, the 5% survivors will have to face massive methane hydrate releases and temperatures up to 25*F hotter than now within a few hundred years, causing mass extinction of most support species and ecosystems, Certainly good enough reason to go green and not have too many kids.

I agree. The horror will be beyond anything that has happened before by orders of magnitude. People just can't seem to think ahead, or understand the exponential function. Even now, people are blithely proud of having X number of kids, when they should instead be proud of having one or none and helping our biosphere. The carrying capacity of Earth has been studied a number of times with multi-disciplinary groups of scientists. It always had to do with the standard of living, a poor standard of living was more, a rich standard much less, and the Euro standard that most would find acceptable the general rule. It was 1.5 to 2 billion in all the studies, and has been shown to since have started down in an accelerating manner. Every positive environmental action is off-set by more people.
Rates of depletion are known for a variety of necessary things like pure water, healthy soil, and benevolent climate. Rates of pollution of a wide variety of toxins and climate changing human caused gases, far beyond the natural rates of absorption are known. The present day effects are all around us and the world, yet so many are oblivious, in denial, or just don't care.
Because they may not feel any effects directly attributable to overpopulation, pollution, or depletion, they deny its existence. Many have grown crowd tolerant, and others used to pollution. Many are still not affected economically outside their comfort range. Like frogs in the proverbial pot being brought to a boil, the negative effects of overpopulation and pollution grow at, for them, an imperceptible slow pace. For those of us with good perception and intelligence, we see what is happening and understand its implications. There is far too few of us to have the power to change not only our own lives to green and sustainable, but change others and governments enough and in time to affect the horrible outcome of a geologic extinction level event caused by people not like us, but in the majority.

Going Green...

2 months ago, If I was asked to explain going green, I would most likely have responded by saying: Reducing water consumptions, reducing pollutants, and reducing energy usage.
But the fact is, that isn’t heart of going green. To put it in a simple prospective, going green is living with the environment peacefully. The only way I see going green possible, is to emulate simpler times..
Return to the times when each family owned a small garden, and worked to feed themselves. A times where electricity did not exist.
Example: Tarzan

But living without electricity is a little extreme. As such we must use technology to emulate simpler times. (Solar Panels, and Wind Turbines)

BOOOM!!
