"I recently started unplugging all my appliances when I'm not using them. When you leave a cell phone charger plugged in, it's actually sucking power all day. Bought a Prius last year, so now I'm saving a lot of cash on the gas." |
"I'm a supporter of smart growth. As we develop our new communities and redevelop our existing communities, we need to integrate sustainable design concepts and transportation-oriented housing configurations." |
"I support the scientific research of natural water filtration systems using planted wetlands. We'd like to find a way to clean the water before it gets into the ocean. We've also been working on an organic surfboard. We have the hemp fibreglass figured out, but we're still working on the core." |

"I'm about as green as you can be. I don't have any children so I haven't created any more consumers in this world. That's what so much of America is guilty of is conspicuous consumption. I don't know why I recycle. Because I don't have kids and don't care who inherits the Earth. But for some reason I do." |
"I participate in the movement to keep the country country here on the North Shore. There's this huge proposal to build 3,500 new hotel rooms at Turtle Bay Hotel. It's a classic example of just a few benefiting and making money at the expense of so many people. It just doesn't serve the common person." |
"I'm super green. Red. And yellow. Rastafari. Selassie! I so green, I hurt when too much plastic goes to the ocean. People don't have any idea, the tourists you know? Maybe kill the turtles. It's bad, but I think people learn little by little. We need to give them a chances." |

"I always try to leave someplace better than I found it. I hope visitors here on the North Shore will remember to do the same." |
"Lately, I've been trying to buy foods that are organically grown instead of genetically altered stuff created to save big food companies money." |
"I'm not as green as my brother, Jack Johnson, but I try to learn from him and follow his examples since he's pretty up on it. I don't use vey much gas 'cause I travel by bike and surf right around where I live." |
