the next step

Every resource I've ever seen about climate change gives the same basic instructions. "Turn down the AC. Get a more fuel efficient car. Buy locally."

We don't have air con. We bus and bike everywhere. We eat vegetarian most of the time, and every lightbulb in the house is compact fluorescent. We patch, repair, reuse and freecycle.

Now what? Where is the environmentalism 201?

*sigh*

I guess I could always write more letters.

In our last house, the previous owners put in a raised wooden floor in the basement. Great idea in dry areas, as it traps a layer of insulating air. Bad idea here - the wood rotted out from underneath.
