Middle path towards better environment

... the problem can be very easily solved by everyone giving up N things. But very few people in the free world would be willing to do that. So we'll have to rely on most people giving up 1 or 2 things out of their own list of N things. For me, I didn't give up living in suburbs. But I
- wear a jacket at home in winter instead of turning on the heat
- use a fan in summer instead of AC
- line-dry my laundary in the backyard instead of using the gas dryer
- skip the plastic or paper bags when grocery-shopping
- gave up my SUV and got a Prius
- and literally dig through the household trash to find recyclable and compostable items that my wife and in-laws fail to separate out.
