    That was an interesting video. Hmmmmm, one change to make. Have to think about that as I am already trying to cut back severely. I am tempted to go vegetarian but any time I have tried, I do fall back.

    And yes - he goes barefoot everywhere.

    He says he has pair of sandals for libraries and public transport where it’s required. But he has flown without shoes.

    wait ... why is he flying?

    (he may be very low impact still, but flying just seems so inconsistent with the message)

    Because he can’t do a ted talk from orlando? I’m just guessing but that would be my first guess.

    Thanks for posting. It's a timely push for getting me motivated to begin decluttering... again.

    I totally agree with this. It goes right along with being frugal out of necessity rather than choice. From a personal perspective, while there were times way back when that I REALLY resented having to be so frugal, I'm now happy to have done it. And while it is still definitely a necessity, it is also a choice. Not sure if that makes sense, but I don't know any other way to say it right now. LOL.
