If I could change one thing in the world, it would be:	Ending Animal Cruelty
I think the most important environmental issue is:	conservationism - that about covers everything :)
The greenest thing I do is:	I make my own cleaning/personal care products (no chemicals!); compost; recycle, buy recycled materials whenever possible; make new things out of old things instead of throwing away and buying new, use all CFL's; support environmental campaigns; offset emissions through TerraPass; conserve fuel but freezing my tush off, water,as best I can, and electricity with in-home conservation and wind-option
What does "sustainability" mean to me:	Living so that nothing is wasted and nothing is used that does not need to be, and making sure that there is a replacement for those things that are necessary
Why am I passionate about being green?	Because I have no other home than this earth, and it is being destroyed
About Me	perpetually indignant, raucous, animated, nonchalant, constantly amused, contradictory, accommodating, monumentally comprehensive, cynical, courteous, blithe, inherently facetious, scathing, effervescent, tumultuous, insomniac, nonconfrontational, suspicious, unresigned, weary... I have spent most of my life feeling apathetic and helpless, and I am changing that through indignation and activism
