That is a good shower head.

from a website, former paper.

It will have only 20 editorial staff members, laying off around 130 and who knows how many printers and delivery people?

how long will this crap site support even 20 writers?

Our company went green this year.

I got a leaf graphic and superimposed it over a globe, then added the words “We’ve gone green! Have you?” in a circle little seal motif, kind of like a stamp, then posted it on my company’s website.

So, when are you going to get off your can and do your part?

What will they do with all those paper dispensers? Recycle?

I know here that since the Dallas Times Herlad shut down they’re still sitting in front of all the convenience stores!

Alot of this is common sense. No one wants to pollute the earth and be wasteful but we don’t have to buy into the Al Gore hysteria in order to “go green”.

I think a 2nd grader could have written this!

No way! I got a leaf graphic and put it on all of our toilet lids. Under the pic, the words "Save a tree, use your hand" appear.

It's just incredible the amount of toilet paper we've saved this fiscal year. I may even get a bonus! Though the boss isn't happy with the increased purchase of Airwick solid and toothpicks for the snack room.

Pay attention to packaging

Every American produces about four and a half pounds of garbage a day. So before you buy something, eyeball the amount of cardboard, plastic, and/or other materials used for the box or wrapping. Wal-Mart is one big retailer that is waking up to the problem: The chain is replacing petroleum-based plastic containers with corn-based packaging for precut fruit, herbs, strawberries, and Brussels sprouts.

Ha! A radical leftist telling other radical leftists to shop at Wal Mart!

CFLs, which contain mercury, are a true environmental disaster in the making. Just more proof that “greens” don’t care about the environment but rather care about their socialist agenda to the exclusion of all else including facts.

BTW, corn cooked in the husk tastes fantastic. Been doing that for years and years. Tempted to stop because these jerks recommend it, but won’t let them affect me even that much.

I, personally, am a one sheeter. Sure my coworkers complain but who am I to go against Sheryl Crow?

Who are you asking?

I use a geothermal heat pump but give Gore and the alarmist envirowhackos as bad a time as I can. Because I hate being lied to by fascist slime.

Yeah, but do you use that one sheet twice (both sides)?

Maybe I could sell Sheryl Crow on a new line of rinseable reusable TP? A roll could last a lifetime.

Sure, but do you have any rights to that? I've put in my permit...
