Example: "recycling" advocates often don't consider all of the costs of recycling. It is seldom appreciated that recycling is the last, not the first, preference in "Reduce, Reuse, Recycle".<br /><br />A similar analysis should be looked at for "high efficiency" transportation, lighting, heating, etc. Example: what are all of the impacts of producing, packaging and disposing of those compact fluorescent bulbs.<br /><br />For me, the only real good option is reduce/reuse...i.e. produce less and use less (things). drive less... I wish I did a better job of practicing what I preach.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07047530584915894337noreply@blogger.com
