Well, we've switched to mostly CFLs for the apartment, and I've been biking to work fairly regularly. Plus I don't eat a lot of meat.
I have also tried to keep the discussion regarding Human Caused Climate Change open, because I think we are being railroaded into hideously expensive 'solutions' to something we are not currently affecting as much as some people think.

(I am not a vegetarian, though information like that makes me think about it…)
And as I tried to convey last time I mentioned this in my journal, just because I don't think that human CO2 production is a major contributor to climate change, doesn't mean I think humans shouldn't study and prepare.
However, I don't think that the Cap & Trade Energy Tax would do anything beneficial, even if human produced CO2 is a major factor.
