I have lived in apartments my whole life, but I'm not sure if that is necessarily the most green decision.

  It's alarming to see people on here entertaining the notion that coercing people to decimate their quality of life is going to put a dent in global emissions, let alone save the environment. We're at a point where the financial and industrial sector needs to be on board and on the hook for trillions to change global infrastructure, and we need innovative technology yesterday to reduce carbon levels in the atmosphere. Even if you could convince most of your classist hippie/yuppie acquaintances to live in a cage, it would not make a difference. That is the infuriating part of the messaging, the projection of guilt onto consumers for not jumping on a hypothetical ineffectual bandwaggon. They sure like to talk the talk, but I don't think they would let their own consumer preferences truly open to public scrutiny.
