I recycle, am careful with water use, replace lights with CFLs (should use LEDs even if it stretches the budget:ohmy:),plan erands around appointments to reduce auto use, reduce A/C use, and buy organic whenever possible. It's for the Mother as well as for me. I'd like to have cleaner air to breathe and cleaner water to drink as well as a little more change in my pocket. But it isn't something new. As a child in the Depression I learned to use, reuse and make do.
