I'm all for living green, but the girl being interviewed was drowning me in smug!

@nadiaw00t You're confusing. Are you mad because she used a wrong combination of words? And I still don't understand what combination of words you are upset about.

We can not 'live naturally'.. there is no return to the stone age. There are 6 billion people in the world.. it is infested with humans.

Just because she has a friend who is a nutritionist doesn't make her promoter of 'alternative therapy' or of Medical science. That's not her point. Her point was about buying food.

@havenjm well, it depends on where you're throwing money. Listen to what she says.. throwing money at 'buying more green' is not going to help. I agree with your position and hers. Instead of buying a green car (not needing a car in the first place ..as she says) give the money to your local farmer to grow organic, pay for licensing, organic soil, etc. Or something similar. It's a matter of how you live and where you spend.

Well the change really comes from many people enacting the change. The consumer is what drives the market so if there is an increased consumer demand for say, less-packaged goods or organic food then that is what the companies will produce because they'd lose money otherwise. WE fuel the economy!

We need to invest some money into the movement of become green but there is a lot we can do that takes no money at all and it is just making an effort to change our habits, less plastic, save water, use energy efficient light bulbs, reuse,recycle eat healthier, walk or use your bicycle instead of driving.

UGHH! I live a green lifestyle, but I am also a medical scientist and I CANNOT STAND IT when people confuse living green and being ecologically aware with alternative medicine and 'living naturally' - 'my nutritionist friend' - it does not follow that if one is 'green' they also accept non traditional therapies... my biggest annoyance in the movement.

[havenjm]

I disagree with her money take. If the green movement is ever going to succeed, it HAS to be economically driven. It won't succeed otherwise.

I think she means that she no longer uses a refrigerator, but instead buys her food fresh or finds other ways to preserve it... I could be wrong though...

I gotta get off topic. Solar,plastic, wtvr the fuck else she thinks isn't natural. Most things made today, that show up in an "organic market" cost more because they require more energy to produce or transport. She shuns solar because it "throws money at it" but if we don't try and prove that new technologies work then no one will try it. "GREEN" is obviously a marketing scheme, they're no Natural foods. We as people have domesticated wild foods to benefit us.
