Going Green? Why Bother?

green leafThe noise about the importance of fixing our climate has been growing louder and louder over the past few years. We can only hope the the damage we have caused to our planet is not irreparable.

But it’s easy to get overwhelmed by it all. To say: “What can I do?” and just give up. The truth is that everything single thing we do every day has an impact on the planet – good or bad. The choice is in your hands. The “little” you can at least mean that you are not adding to the problem. If we can get everyone to think green, well, no more problem. right? But to get there we’ll need to take it one person at a time… So why not start at home?

The truth is that “going green” isn’t just about helping to preserve equatorial rain forests, it can also mean improving your health, saving cash, and, ultimately, improving your overall quality of life. Why wouldn’t anyone want to green?

As far back as he can remember Jack Reichert has been interested in the environment. In the second grade, he rallied all of his classmates to donate one recess a week to cleaning up litter from the schoolyard. That was the same year that a city councilman asked him to help with his campaign because of the letter Jack had written asking him to clean up Boston Harbor. Ever since Jack has followed the development of the international green conscience with anticipation and hope that one day we will treat Mother Earth with the respect she deserves and not turn her into another Giving Tree.
