Ecological Intelligence

Ecological intelligence is basically better ways of living and using up less resources recycling etc. How ever this is harder than it looks like. Even though we create these so called Eco-efficient products it takes up more energy and polluting more just to make them. So we are basically back where we started screwing up the planet. For example to make a so called "hybrid car" We waste make more carbon dioxide making the car than the driver will ever save in his/her life time. That car would have to be around for several generations before you would be making up for the carbon you made it with. But its not as simple as just keeping the car for a long time. You would have to keep the engine clean and if your car was still working great then you would have to resist the temptation to not by another car claiming it iso much better than the car your driving which they call wasting and a car of the past. Making you feel like an uncool person who can't keep up with the times. 

This article connects to our questions because how we can and convince others to live more sustainability. But how can we when what is supposed to be energy efficient is actually waiting more than before. 

My ecological indigence is in my opinion very high because before I go and by something I think of whether or not it is what it claims. This also connects that sixth sense thing because we can't always have a computer at out sides to help us with our choices in life. That is also an interesting subject because I wonder how much energy it took to make that contraption and if it goes into mass production will they even attempt to lower the carbon they release during production and with the consumer.
