Baby steps

As the news churns out more heart sinking images of the oil spill in the gulf, saw this fact on the Seventh Generation website when doing research for an upcoming presentation:

If every household in the U.S. replaced just one bottle of 100 ounce 2x ultra petroleum-based liquid laundry detergent with our 100 ounce 2x ultra plant-derived product, we could save 466,000 barrels of oil. Enough to heat and cool 26,800 U.S. homes for a year.

That's incredible. Nearly everyone can do that.
