Again, if anyone would care to testify about the way they are seriously cutting down their stuff stream, have at it. I would like to hear about ways people have actually gotten some of this going in real life without $14,000 investments in solar panels or even $65 sets of recycle bins.

As I said, We don't shop at the big box places, we pay extra for our meds in order to support the only locally-owned pharmacy (chemist's), our car is 17 years old and still going well, no new furniture ever, literally, what we do buy, of anything, we use up, reuse, pass it on, recycle, etc.

Those may not seem like much, but they are exactly the kind of measures the video talks about and, added to similar actions by other folks, can add up to make a huge difference. We also didn't pay anything for our recycle bins, which we use; do not cut our grass, instead letting it go to seed for birds, etc; switched to long-lasting lightbulbs about 10 years ago; use canvas shopping bags; buy organic/all natural, etc. whenever possible.

It seems to me a person who wants proof of what others are doing maybe can't be bothered to do anything themselves. Denigrating the video seems a sure sign someone doesn't want to change or help out, imo. Knock it all you want, folks, there are truths in there and we are all guilty, as equally as we can all contribute to changing it.
