most folks in China, India, Africa and many other places have no idea what insulation, light bulbs or even the concept of conservative are. they take the family on a week end trip on their ox driven carts, poop behind the nearest tree and enjoys life as they know it. talk about CO2...with some methane.

being thrifty is very good and i support the notion. however the end results of everyone doing all thats suggested will surge the CO2 and some other elements as production of these items happen. Insulation is a nasty product and what these factories produce may shock you.

any one can now, drive a vehicle with no use of oil products. they can also live in nice homes with total solar or wind power. Evergreen Solar will be out with a unit ten times more powerful then there current in two years. this will allow many larger buildings to convert w/o appearing to be a joke.

the oil companies have kept all of us moving in manners to become what we are. give a little credit and if you want, join in the profits. by the way last i heard those companies you speak of are owned by some 2.1 billion people around the world. no source; add up the stock holders of all the companies involved with this product. by the way several billion fly each year, who prefer a good jet fuel over solar power...
