As someone who:

Rarely has a car, usually travelling by bus/train/walk/bike

Keeps the thermostat down low so as not to over heat the house

always takes my own reusable bags to the supermarket

Puts everything possible in the recycling bag

never disposes of material things until they have worn out

and never in my life have I thrown away a food item because I let it get
out
of date/go stale

I have a problem with someone else deciding what particular things I have
to
do to make my contribution to saving the planet


Thats odd given the above reads like a Greenpeace wish list. Did you
coincidentaly think it up all by yourself in a vacuum?


It's the list of things that I do that the press regularly complains that
people don't do that wastes energy

of course it's going to look like the list of things that people want us to
do if I do, in fact, do them.

I could have added, "I save energy by not ironing my sheets" which isn't on
anybody's list AFAICT if you want me to add some variety
