When I was a teenager Saturday was cleaning day in our house and if I wanted money to go roller skating much of the responsibility of that cleaning fell on my shoulders. I hated cleaning, but I did it since it meant I earned the money necessary to go spend time doing what I loved most […]
Why do I even Bother to be "Green"?
