finally using that old rusted recycling bin?

or maybe not drinking out of plastic bottles?

Living in a cave?

Going on strike?

Are you extreme or not?

I spray my aerosol can at the sky saying "Daddy likes it HOT!"

... No, seriously. I do absolutely nothing. Why should I? No one else does.

Yay apathy!

I garden my own veggies for the summer, and I recycle (I get a $7 credit on my utilities for this!). I have lots of hair, so a 2 min shower is not possible :S I take the bus to school, ride my bike when it's warm, and try not to use too much electricity to heat my house or keep it bright. But, I do some of these things because they also SAVE ME MONEY. So if no one else is clever enough to act thrifty, then their loss.

I just read a few days ago that eating a hamburger was worse on the environment than driving your car for a day.

(I'll go find the source)

It isn't necessarily the actually hamburger, it's the process in making it and like Switch pointed out how much methane they release.

Yes, because hamburgers have weird things in them like food coloring and aluminum. A regular, non-treated steak will not hurt the environment

First line.. LMAO.

Second, Just caz no one else does it doesn't mean you shouldn't.

Most of it, My family does for money. I have a recycling bin near where I study and the computer desk, so I just throw paper in there.

We buy those annoying 6$ Lightbulbs that eventually save you 145 Dollars over their lifetime.

And... I don't eat hamburgersers, so whatever. xP

Lastly. ... Umm... Er.. >.> I throw my trash away. Littering sucks
All i could think of :P [I do more than others, though]

I do take long showers, but I think I make up for it because I always make sure I set the heater and cooler off and on in the morning. Since, I always try to help my parents keep the heating bill low, and usually in the morning and kinda darkish but still lightish times we leave the lights off. Until we really need 'em. [The sun does the rest in the meantime]

I talked to my dad about getting a solar roof when I was litteler, he was like "Yeah, give me a million dollars, I'll get you one" I was like "Crap ><"

Anyway, I don't know WHERE your going with the hamburger.

Exactly my point, Ash. Its not the eating the animal that causes enviroment problems. If you eat a chicken leg, youre not killing the environment
