It was June of 2006 that I found myself in a darkened theater watching “An Inconvenient Truth". I had no idea how this documentary would impact my life in the way I looked at the world and actions I would set out and take. I realized that the way I was living my life was impacting the environment in a negative way. I also realized that it was time for me to enact change not only in my own life, but maybe, in the lives of others.
I wanted to figure out how to minimize my use and waste of resources. It is undoubtedly a challenge at first, but I was realistic in trying to affect an initial change through an evolution instead of a shock. Consistent and deliberate action, however small, ultimately adds up to immense differences that reduce the negative effects on our environment. I suddenly felt empowered and wanted to empower others to challenge themselves to do more. I genuinely believe that people not only CAN make a difference, but when inspired properly by the stakes of this global struggle, will WANT to make a difference.
Finally, we must ALL make a sincere effort to try and slow and eventually reverse the human impact of global warming. I am attempting to supply information in a positive manner that will compel you to challenge yourself to live a green lifestyle. Not only for yourself, but for your planet. Some people might say that this is a fight to the death, but I see it as a fight for our life. For our planet. Thank you for visiting All Green Things. Welcome to the journey!
