living green

i just browsed through a washington post article and it had a lot of ways to be "green." i think there is a lot of things people can do, but i am more excited about more efficient electrical products. these products will allow people to live their lives without change and still improve the environment. people really are not going to change how they live their lives, but when governments pass legislation for companies to better their products it lifts the responsibility from the average person. for example, if new technologies consume 33 percent less energy, then like it or not you are helping the environment. i think these will make the biggest differences. like power adapters that charge all of our electronics, if they are not pulling electricity from the wall all day while your device isn't charging, then that is a big improvement considering these are in everyones household.
