I'm starting to realize how hard it is to go no-impact. Whether it's grabbing a paper towel in the bathroom (to clean up a spill or just to dry my hands) or having oyster crackers in my soup at the caf, there's some trash I produce. Some of it I can more easily eliminate; some of it I can't do without structural changes - hand dryers installed in the bathrooms, for example.
The weather today being so erratic also made me realize something: it's not safe to bike while there's lightening nearby. Confession: I had my roommate pick me up instead of biking home in the storm. How do bikers deal with this problem?
This has led me to the question: Is it enough just to reduce? How far do we need to go?
