Gather ‘Round the Festivus Pole, George Costanza’s Getting on the Green Team!

Holy crap! George Costanza is going green!

Ecorazzi told me about jason Alexander’s post over at Daily Green detailing how he and his family are trying to live a little more eco-aware.

Sorry, but I grew up on Seinfeld and the idea of George Costanza doing anything that makes the planet a better place makes me bust out laughing.

Serenity now!!!

Here’s a snip from Jason’s post, head over to Daily Green and read the whole thing.

This planet was never intended to support the number of human beings we currently have residing on it. As a result, natural lands and animal populations are disappearing — and rapidly. If we do not start to really understand this harsh reality and reverse it, our planet will not survive. At least not with a quality of life that anyone would wish for.

So our family talks about responsibility in family planning. We talk about replacing ourselves on this globe, rather than doubling or tripling our numbers. It is not an easy conversation. Life and families and babies are all joyous gifts. But if we do not begin to truly account for our numbers, we will surely create an ecological crisis that will only lead to anguish and despair.

We also talk about small acts of conservation in terms that make them impact in a more realized way. Leaving on lights unnecessarily isn’t just ‘wasteful’ or ‘costly.’ We talk about how the waste of that energy affects arctic refuges.
