I do not think that going green is ANTI- universal abundance as you put it. Yes there are tons and tons of particles of matter and energy sources in the universe, but you can't really think of that on a universal level, at least not yet, because we are currently limited to earth, which is already over populated IMO and still increasing at an insane rate (we're supposed to hit 9 billion in about 20 years if we don't kill ourselves off first). Every known resource on earth is either finite or not that effecient yet (or suppressed), so I do not believe in the universal abundance theory. Going green is necessary right now until we develope alternative energy sources. If we lived off of nature and families all over the world didn't pop out 5+ kids (who in turn pop out 5+ kids)none of this would be a problem. Is it really a big deal to turn off a light when you leave a room? My father taught me that well, so I do that at work as well. I figured every little bit helps and if more people were on the same page, it wouldn't be something that's necessary now. Yeah the government and big corporations are mostly to blame, but all the little people can make a difference as well.
