Environmental Awareness.

As industrialized nations have developed, our world has changed drastically.  We've transitioned from surviving off of natural resources that were easily available to mass product availability from the increased ease of shipping.  In many of our homes, we have products that were made on the other side of the world and shipped to our houses.  Increased consumption over the last century has had a depleting effect on the Earth's natural resources.  While the past cannot be reversed, there are small practices that individuals can do to help reduce their consumption of natural resources.  I've compiled a list of websites that provide easy and helpful suggestions to reducing an individual's consumption.
