Al Gore won the Noble Piece Prize today, a perfect reward for making green something that the everyday people understand.  Before Al Gore came out and showed us why global warning mattered, the average person thought being green was for granola eating tree huggers and was something that really did not affect them.

Well all of that has changed we all have heard the argument about conserving energy and lowering emissions. While working on greenstew I have been asking most of the people I know about there impressions on global warming and living green.  To my surprise some of them discount the global warming effects; however these same people have put CFL in there home because it saves them money and they don have to bother changing a light bulb for years.  Some of my friends have done some of the small things like making sure that the right recyclable products got in the right trash bin.  Some of my friends are really concerned about global warming and are doing what they can to make their footprint smaller.

Right now my family is focusing on the three R I feel if we can master recycling, reducing and reusing our carbon footprint will take care of it self.  I really can not say that we are doing a lot more than the average American family, but we are learning and doing more every week.
