Support what is good and right

Tara and I work hard to be considerate citizens, friends and now, parents. There is a lot to that. There is the compassion for the individual, attention to the relationship and the dedication to bring it to the world. 

We try to support local, beneficial retailers and manufacturers as much as possible. Through various name changes I have have looked to Green America for all sorts of information. Here again they give me guides which I would like to share...



Digital TV Transition

My carbon footprint is HUGE when it comes to electronics. I'm an audiophile geek. I love my soundsystem. It meant a lot more before I met Tara b/c she's not so interested and if she's home the system is usually playing at a volume too low to mean anything. :-(

I'll live but if I were only a bachelor again...

All that said I recently found out my footprint was bigger than I imagined. I have a big screen plasma, the biggest energy hog TV available. When I bought it I didn't know, plasmas looked much better than LCDs and that's what mattered.

If you follow the Green America's advice you can avoid my mistake.
