Your Questions About Green Living

Betty asks…

how can we be more eco friendly?

i’m doing a editorial on how people in our country can be more eco friendly.
some think you can’t be stylish with eco friendly clothing.
is there someone who would possibly let me interview them?

The Expert answers:

Ecological wisdom may be more important than ecological friendliness.

Avoiding overpopulation of any species may be as important as trying to preserve a dwindling species. No, go further, it may be the only way to preserve the dwindling species.

We like to tread lightly on earth, and that is good, but if we have grossly upset some aspect of nature we may need to tread heavily… As when we have introduced rabbits into New Zealand and they are destroying the pasture lands , or we have introduced sheep and cattle, and failed to manage their numbers so that a whole ecosystem is in jeopardy, not because of something we are doing, but because of something that our parents or grandparents did generations ago.

We make a lot of clothing that is mixtures of natural and man made fibres, and then we can not recycle those fabrics, We can not even separate them from fabrics that we could recycle.

A nasty trick we play on each other, we toss beer bottles into the ditch where mowing equipment or snow removal will toss the bottles into adjacent farm land. Here a combine picks the bottle up and puts glass shards all through our grain on the way to be made into our own bread.

Does the ecosystem care? Or is this just us that cares?
