We are all in it together and the sooner we grow up the faster we will really approach a world where we have actually saved our planet. I can't wait, to quote Art Hoppe.

And how every day users can make their computers more efficient.

Their faq page says: "undeniable urgency that issues like global warming and pollution [...]" The environment is an umbrella issue and can mean a lot of things to a lot of people. I hope the focus on GW is stressed more clearly. I also hope this doesn't get polarized into another Red vs Blue debate, as participation from both sides is necessary to get anywhere on this.

I've made a number of environmentally conscious changes around the house lately and they've almost all had a positive effect on our finances. I'm sure I'll be blogging about it before October, but I'll save a big, link-happy post for the official day. I just signed up yesterday!
