My stuggle with going "green"

I am wrestling with things I can do to live more responsibly and conserve. Now let me set my back ground. I am 100% conservative Republican. I do not like tree huggers and I do not believe 1 single word out of Al Gore's mouth about global warming. Is the earth warming yes are we the cause, absolutely not. The earth constantly is going through cycles and humans do not cause it. Now with that said let me tell you what I am struggling with.

I believe it is absolutely important that each person try to conserve energy and live cleaner. I would love to see a United States that has no dependency on foreign oil. We can do this if we invest in other forms of energy. I have been looking seriously into solar power for my home. I will probably go solar over the next few years. I also will use ethanol instead of gasoline when we get an ethanol dealer here.

Now I am not saying that everyone need to rush out and by a hybrid car or anything. However when I say a woman and one child going to Wal-Mart in a Hummer it really tees me off. Why do we do such things. Some thing else that tees me off is the "beautiful people" running around in private jets telling me to car pool. It is very funny that Al Gore's home uses twice as much energy as George Bush's Home. It really gets to me when our government and Hollywood says do as I say and not as I do.

I know this really doesn't have a lot to do with real estate but I thought I would share.
