Recently saw the documentary on No Impact Man. It was great! I use to follow his blog when he first started the whole project. It was where I first learned about getting composting worms. Anyway, it was a great motivator on making me want to be more conscious in my everyday acts/decisions.
Everyone should watch it!

Re: No Impact Man
Suicide is the only way to have no impact.
Enjoy.
What is your deal? How is this helpful...
ETA: To respond to OP, I haven't seen it yet but I mean to! I keep forgetting to rent it.
I agree that it was a dramatic turn from the way we normally live life, but they did so in a bit of transition (there were parts where I wasn't sure if he had started the project yet)
I LOVED when he was explaining "no impact" to his little daughter! She seemed to understand it better than his wife LOL
I just watched it this weekend.
I thought it was a little depressing. Whenever he and his wife were discussing stuff, it just seemed sad. I don't know. Doing the laundry in the bathtub looked fun and exposing his daughter to their adventures looked fun (farm, city garden). I know it was super extreme, but it was sort of sad to me.
But on the other hand, it did get me excited for my farmer's market to open in a few weeks!
