I thinking about urban, suburban, rural, types like that. If the type is a lil obscure give a definition please so other people will know what you are talking about. Again, these are favorite types of areas to live, not just visit. And feel free to give your reasons why the type is your favorite. Don't forget to put what type you are in right now!

I have more pumpkins this year than I can shake a stick at...What I need are some pumpkin recipes apart from pumpkin pie or roasted pumpkin seeds. I plan to roast the seeds, and I'll likely use two or three for jack-o-lanterns, but that still leaves me with a lot of pumpkins, and the only recipe I know for pumpkin flesh is pumpkin pie, but we can't eat that much pumpkin pie. 1 or 2 per year is as much as we can stomach. So, got any other recipes for me?

With a nod to David Letterman.......List the top 10 things (or less) that you would not buy, even if money wasn't a consideration and why.

This is neat! A fantastic pod car...It is a real breath of fresh air in our cities and the prelude to travel without pollution...With small size, a tiny price, zero pollution, fun and futuristic design, AIRPod marks a turning point in the range of urban vehicles while renewing the idea of the automobile and transportation. You can drive with a joystick.

Ok, let's interrupt the political posts with something related to being green. I see everyone talking about the environmental impacts of meat and since my parents give me beef from their farm which is pretty low impact, my breakfast is the most impacting since I have to buy sausage or bacon or eggs. So what is a lower impact breakfast like, what do you eat if you eliminate meat or meat products?

I have been using eco-friendly laundry detergent for years, but am starting to notice that my clothes just aren't getting clean. Most of my clothes have an odor I just can't get rid of no matter how much I wash them. My husband complains that all of his work shirts smell like sweat/deodorant, and all of my daughters pajamas smell like drool/stale laundry. I can handle clothes that aren't super white, or stains, but I don't want to walk around smelling gross. Any tips?

We have a lot of new members, becoming green; joining in the movement. I pose this question: What led you to become more sustainable in your lifestyle? What drew you in? And what have you changed to become more sustainable? Small stuff/big stuff; what have you stopped doing you did before that wasn't sustainable?

Anybody seen this Audi commercial that shows bicycling and transit in a bad light? What do you think? Too much? No big deal?

So I came across this story the other day, about invasive snakes in Florida. But I always feel that the idea of "invasive" species is weird- isn't the differing evolution of plant and animal species part of nature? That's how every species has gotten to where it is today- by moving in and out-adapting competing species. Shouldn't we just let nature take its course?

The Source Of The Myth

If you could pull off something on a large scale that would result in a greener world, what would you do? I want something concrete...like a plan or something.
