a few notes

i cannot see an inconvenient truth. i spend my of my day deliberating in what ways i can make less of an impact on the earth -- paper or plastic? i know i should bring a bag with me to the market but i use the plastic grocery bags for garbage bags. should i bring a bag to the grocery store and buy biodegradable garbage bags? i buy biodegradable products as often as i can (laundry detergent, dish soap, cleaning products) but that doesn't mean that the chemicals in the products are not harmful so i make an all-purpose cleaner out of white vinegar and i try to buy organic white vinegar and am not sure if i should buy vinegar in glass or plastic -- which has less impact considering that i recycle both? anyway, i saw al gore (for maybe 4 minutes) on oprah but he talked about how the polar bears are drowning and i started crying. seriously, if i see that film i will be sent over the edge because the edge is near anyway.
