The two are usually coexistant in one person, but they are totally different forces and motives. I did not know it was called asteya, but I know that even when it wont help the earth, I still find myself weighing whether I need to get/keep/use something, so I understand the practice. Interesting topic. Tell us how it goes.

I just wish the cashier at the grocery store will stop sighing and eye rolling when I bring in my own grocery bags. I bought them at the store you idiots. I won't tell your little secret, though. Teehee. You may not be using recycled checks, anymore, but if you pay online then you are saving more paper.

It's true that those little green things we do can add up. Sometimes I don't feel I'm doing enough for the environment, but when I pause and think about the everyday actions I've converted into habit...I'm like, hey not too bad. But of course, there's always room for improvement! I'm glad to hear your doing that! Wow, I like the message of your post for Blog Action Day.
