"You may have heard something about "No Impact Man" or you may have heard about the guy who was going to live in New York City without making any environmental impact for a whole year (crazy, right?)."
More:
"Colin Beavan decides to completely eliminate his personal impact on the environment for the next year.
It means eating vegetarian, buying only local food, and turning off the refrigerator. It also means no elevators, no television, no cars, buses, or airplanes, no toxic cleaning products, no electricity, no material consumption, and no garbage.
No problem - at least for Colin - but he and his family live in Manhattan. So when his espresso-guzzling, retail-worshipping wife Michelle and their two-year-old daughter are dragged into the fray, the No Impact Project has an unforeseen impact of its own."
Great example and definitely inspiring.

"The No Impact Project is an international, environmental, nonprofit project, founded by Colin Beavan in the spring of 2009. It was inspired by the No Impact Man book, film, and blog."
At the link you can take action to change the world.
It also recommends watching documentaries like "FLOW"; "Blue Gold"; or "The Water Front". - 3 years ago

Sounds more like no impact bitch of a wife.
Cool concept, though. I look forward to seeing it.
