What would be the impact of no impact? Uh?

Have you seen this blog – No Impact Man? I’m obsessed with reading No Impact Man’s daily lessons. It is a one year experiment to live on this planet without making any net impact on the environment. I now ask myself everyday how does my life and my activity impact our environment and can I do what it takes to change to a slower, simpler, less environmentally impactful life? Scary, uh?

No Impact Man’s life and choices are extreme and that is exactly part of the experiment. I’m wondering if his pioneering efforts will allow the rest of us to acknowledge our own impact on the environment, review the choices and decide which parts of our lives are we willing to change both for ourselves, future generations and our planet.
