How many people thing that going green is a big advertising scam in order for the ecological activists to get more money out of you?

Come on… paying money to reduce your carbon foot print? What a joke and the jokes on you.

If you want to recycle and reuse your items do it so save yourself money, not line the pockets of others!
Oh Hey LOOK - there is someone in the audience tonight that has been brainwashed!!! hahahahahahaaa

I’ve been around since before we were at the begining of the next ice age in the 70’s. Ignorant I am not, nor will I be bullied by the likes of you!!!

More and more people are turning to hybrid cars these days because of their promise of lesser fuel consumption and environmental friendliness. Hybrid cars, because they run on both fuel and battery-powered engines, consume less fuel, thereby reducing the price pressures on consumers in the midst of an global oil crisis. In addition, it also emits significantly less smog pollutants in the air, compared to traditional fuel-operated cars.

Indeed, there are a lot of advantages to owning hybrid cars. This is why even the US government is starting to show support by welcoming more models into the country and by encouraging American auto makers to make more units.

The Key Advantages of Hybrid Cars are as follows:

Efficiency - Hybrid cars are electrically operated and are thus able to function well and consistently at any motor speed. This is in contrast to conventional gas-powered engines, which tend to produce less power in low revolutions per minute episodes. Hybrid cars do not need to use transmissions to make their engines run at full capacity even at reduced speeds.

Economy - One of the advantages of hybrid cars is that the feature called “regenerative braking”. Since a hybrid car works using both electric power and fuel power, each can function by itself or conjunction, depending on which is stronger at the time of use. This means that both engines complement each other and do not simply bog one when one of them becomes weaker.

Convenience - Because hybrid cars are part battery powered, they do not create huge holes on the pocket, compares to users of traditional cars who feel the pain of the continuing oil price increases. Most hybrid cars, particularly the ones that are made in Japan, are also more compact and lightweight, making them easier to maneuver on the road. Other models, particularly those by American and European car makers also do not deviate from the stylish designs their regular counterparts adopt, so users don’t have to feel they are being left out in the style department.

Sustainability - Sure, hybrid cars are fairly new, so their immediate impact on the environment cannot be foreseen in the short term. However, over the course of time, the next generations will definitely be thankful for having a clean, pollution free world, thanks to hybrid vehicles. Most critics say that it is not the time to buy hybrid vehicles because they are expensive. However, when you consider the advantages, you really shouldn’t think twice. While you must be discerning in choosing the right model for your needs, this doesn’t mean you start hesitating. After all, when more people patronize hybrid cars, manufacturers will see the need to produce more and eventually bring its price at very affordable levels.

In time to come, environmentally friendly hybrid cars will be the order of the day.

Do check out my site for more information on hybrid cars and other environmentally friendly car tips.

Environmentally friendly gifts are perfect for birthdays, anniversaries, and other holidays. The quality of environmentally friendly gifts is usually comparable to or even better than the quality of gifts that are not as environmentally sound. Because there are such a wide variety of environmentally friendly gifts available on the market, you have many great ideas to choose from. You’ll be able to buy gifts for everyone on your list and do your part to help protect the environment.

Gifts Made from Recycled Paper

You can actually give many gifts that have been made from recycled paper. The quality of recycled paper is just as good as the paper made from raw materials, so you can give a quality gift and still do your part to protect the environment. This recycled paper is turned into gifts like journals, diaries, stationery sets, note cards, and similar items. Just because they’re made from recycled paper doesn’t mean that they’re going to be plain or boring. Recycled paper can be dyed many colors and gifts can be made in a wide assortment of styles and textures. With the wide variety of gifts available, you’re sure to find something that your friends and family members will love.

Nature-Themed Apparel

Clothing featuring plants, animals, and flowers is popular among nature lovers. If you are able to visit a store offering nature apparel, you’ll have a wide selection to choose from. Jackets, shirts, and other clothing items can have nature scenes imprinted on them for your favorite nature lover. If you want to personalize these items, you can even have the recipient’s name embroidered or printed on each items to make an extra-special gift. Many of these items can be made with natural fibers for an environmentally friendly gift that your loved one will enjoy for years.

Donations of Time & Money

If you have someone who is really concerned about conservation, recycling, and environmental protection, you can give the perfect gift by donating your time or money to an environmental cause that they support. Many groups will allow you to donate money in honor of someone; you can simply send a check and the organization will take care of sending the gift card to the recipient. If you want to donate your time, you can volunteer with your loved one at a recycling center or nature center or even spend time cleaning up your community. This is an environmentally friendly gift that costs nothing but your time and willingness to help out.

Giving environmentally friendly gifts is a great way to show friends and family members with a love of nature that you care about their interests. Even the simplest gift will be appreciated if it shows that you thought about what your loved one enjoys and gave them something that fits in with their environmentally friendly lifestyle. Not only will you be giving a wonderful gift that your loved ones can enjoy for a long time, you’ll also be doing your part to buy environmentally friendly gifts and protect your own environment.

I’ve thought about using a butane grill but i’m not sure about the smell and off-gassing. I have also thought about using a table top battery powered lamp but I think I would go through the batteries to quick.

Anyone have any suggestions? I already use cfl and led bulbs and my heat is as low as I can stand. I do not have a lot of money at all.
