Just try not driving the car you have as much, combining trips, not speeding, and occasionally walking or riding a bike. You want to use wasteful incandescents... fine. But turn 'em off when you leave the room.
You don't want to buy greener products, then don't. Just use common sense with the products you've got, and you're accomplishing a lot.

Really? Proper care? Just because you use proper care doesn't mean the majority of people do. And I'm wondering, how does replacing something that uses more energy with something that uses less energy BUT has poisonous chemicals make sense? I'm not 'over reacting' Im simply saying.....this whole 'greenie' thing has gotten out of control. Government corruption and ineptness is rampant, and I'm supposed to care about this. And by the way.....we do have one CFL light in the house. Its in my husbands lamp. I do know how to compromise......
