Ed Begley Jr. is indeed an accomplished actor, but he is also a dynamic individual and a person who truly lives and practices what he believes in. He started taking a great interest in the environment back in 1970. He is often seen on his bicycle, he purchases recycled paper, has a rain barrel, recycles and composts and practices what he 'preaches'. He is so entertaining to listen to, that one becomes absorbed in the message and comes away with a feeling that 'I can do that'.
Today, before leaving home, I stopped to drop off the newspapers and boxes at a school with the large GREEN dumpster. People do not realize how convenient it is. In Pasco County, only a small percentage of homes have 'blue bag' recycling. But we do our part and I am proud of the effort. Even more so after listening to Ed Begley, Jr.
Mr. Begley said that "Everybody can do something". It's okay to start small. Do what you can and after that try to do more.
As to technology, "it can be a friend". Use it wisely. It's okay to have a fondness for the printed page.
With regard to the climate change discussion, stick to good science. Go to reputable scientific sites for information. Be aware of your source.
