QotD: Green Living
How green is your school, office, or home?
Probably not as green as they could be. It's difficult to justify investing in eco-friendly accoutrements for a rental property, and unfortunately (or perhaps fortunately) I don't call the shots in my office. I suppose the whole thing makes me sound kind of noncommittal and unwilling to take responsibility, and I suppose I'd have to agree with you if you said so too. I don't actively seek to waste electricity, I turn off lights when I leave a room, and I turn off the faucet when I'm brushing my teeth. But honestly, I can't see myself hiking up a ladder to put solar panels on the roof of a duplex someone else owns. I'm sure I'll take a more active role when I own my own home.
