Respect For Nature

For many pagans, having a respect and love for nature is essential. However, like everyone else, they need a car to get to the places they need to be. They need to eat, which means that they produce waste. They need electricity, which means coal plants expel CO2 in order to produce their energy needs. This does not make them hypocrites or bad people. It just means that they are a part of modern society.

I myself am not the most environmentally conscious person all of the time, but I do try to do little things to show my appreciation for nature. For example, I do not throw litter on the ground. I reuse things. I put old electronics and computers to new use or sell them to people on eBay. I only travel when I need to. I always make sure that no one else needs anything before I drive somewhere.

Is there anything that anyone else does to show their respect for nature? Leave a comment and tell me about it. It may inspire others to do the same. I may even end up incorporating it in to my day-to-day life.
