<p>Also, I&#8217;ve been doing a lot of work over the last year for the solar market (CIGS solar to be exact), and I&#8217;ve been attending a lot of talks on Green buildings (particularly churches) at the conferences I&#8217;ve attended and I&#8217;ve had an interesting realization.</p>
<p>Being Green, particularly the principal of understanding where things you consume come from, and where the waste and other end products of consuming those things goes, and who that affects, can be really relevant to other areas of life.<br />

<p>So, let me know what you think.  Am I over-thinking here, or is there a way you think that I or we as global citizens could be more &#8216;green-minded&#8217; in areas that aren&#8217;t necessarily considered green.</p>
