- Why are you on the path to green?
- Lack of sustainability is the biggest problem we face and only when each of us, individually, changes our lifestyles away from consumerism and towards more sustainable living practices will this problem reverse. We'll run out of resources long before Al Gore's Global Hotbox hits us.

- Current legislative, green or personal "Calls to Action" I promote
- I promote no legislation that restricts choices or ads new laws. Government is useless in solving any problem and is nearly always the cause of the problem to start with.
I support personal calls to action where groups of people, acting together freely, commit acts of green.
