However, I try to work on the balance between being green and not going to extremes. Going green needs some proponents who aren’t the “knit your own trousers from nettle fibres” crackheads that get used to make Joe Public think that anyone going green (or even just working on lessening their impact a bit and doing what they can) is a complete dingbat.

I prefer to try and promote the “doing what one can without being a complete extremist” perspective.

Which, for the more extreme green-ists, is exactly what we should all be considering… which makes a mockery of any other attempts to be “more green”.
