Features, Found in Conversation: Living responsibly: What can you give up for the planet? Part 1/9

ONE problem with the environmental movement is the caricaturing of messages. Save the planet. Save the rainforests. Stop global warming. Green the earth. Recycle, reuse, reduce. Live organic. As useful as these slogans are in environmental education and in persuasion, it's doubtful how successful they have been in affecting real change. There may even be fatigue about saving the planet. Many people still cling to old habits and comforts, whether out of ignorance, apathy, or plain convenience.

Can people be made to genuinely care about the environment, to the extent that they will change their lifestyles and give up habitual comforts?
