 Being "green" is like being cool now, and we didn't start that trend. The idea of conservation and using our resources to their maximum potential has been around for a long time, but I agree that we all could do better, just not something as taboo as separating our urine from our bowel movements. This op-ed was done really well. I found it to be well-researched and easy to read. It has four good sources, and it focuses on a topic of the public's general interest. I thought it was a tad lengthy. It was, however, really good about localizing something from China and applying the same ideas to our lives here in the U.S.
