Mike Richter Goes Green

From the Sierra Club:

What lifestyle changes have you made because of global warming?

I have done a series of practical (and fairly boring) things that have actually improved the quality of my life, rather than diminish it, while shrinking my carbon footprint:  When my 1993 car finally gave in, I went to the highest gas milage car I could find—a Prius.  I’m still looking to get an entirely electric vehicle, but no luck yet.  I drive less and take public transportation (metronorth RR) everyday on my commute.  When the light gets a bit better I will try to ride my bike to the train.  I have opted to receive all my electricity from renewable sources at my house and have made it a priority to buy locally grown produce.  To that end, my family has been getting into gardening (really local).

Click here for on Mike Richter’s outlook on our environment. Glad to see his being a “stand-up” guy in another area besides hockey.

Mike Richter is a stand up guy, period.  If I’m not mistaken he just graduated from Yale.  Smart dude and was quite the athlete.

Indeed he did graduate from Yale, and considered running for Congress last year in Connecticut. 

Way to go Mike!

yeah, he’s another big lefty like Bill Bradley, and a lot of sheep will probably vote for him if he runs for Congress just because they know his name

learn something from New Jersey (which always gets things wrong) vote your principles not whether you were a “fan”
