Earth Day

I try to do my part to RENEW, REUSE, RECYCLE. I try to be conscious of what I waste, and what I consume. I try to turn off lights, unplug my computer at night, avoid using air conditioning in the summer, toss my earth-unfriendly light bulbs, etc, etc. I try.
Yet I realize the obscene volume of trash I accumulate on a daily basis. I just looked at my huge jug of apple juice, and was disgusted with myself. Do I really need this damn juice? As tasty as it may be? Who knows the energy it took to develop this jug, and how much energy will be required to dispose of it/recycle it. I should stick to good old H2O. Or at the very least buy the cans of frozen juice if I just must have it. I started an herb garden which is in it's early stage but I hope I don't kill it.
My thumb is certainly NOT a green one.
