		<description><![CDATA[chrisp, another hippy unclear on the concept.



If some of these green freaks had their way, we&#039;d live in mud huts in the woods. It is completely unrealistic to think that society as a whole can change so quickly to the point where people are giving up things they&#039;ve been enjoying their whole life (in this case, RVing/trailer camping). Driving to work is not green, neither is living in a house full of plastics and disposable this-or-that.



Getting greener is a process and we&#039;re in the infant stages. What if a trailer was being towed with an electric truck? What if 100% of the trailer from frame to fixtures was recyclable? You aren&#039;t going to stop people from engaging in these hobbies. ZERO impact on the world is not possible right now, but LESS is certainly better, and a step in the right direction.



I am a big fan of a more sustainable world, but you have to take a more pragmatic view of things instead of dismissing efforts outright since the subject as a whole is &quot;wasteful.&quot; The all-or-nothing green crowd does a disservice to the movement and turns off those that would otherwise consider some of these improved products.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Agreed, this is definitely not the place to publish about this epitome of over-consumption.



No matter what you use to build those, there is no way to make them green ; aluminum is one of the most energy-intensive metal around, only extracted through electrolysis at high temperature.



Please stop green washing!!!]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Use whatever material you want... it is still a McMansion on wheels.  Nothing about this is &quot;green&quot; except for the trim paint.  Bringing you entire house with you is not camping.  You will need a V8 truck just to get this to you campsite.  At 15mph you waste a tremendous amount of energy just to setup camp.



These are silly articles... we can&#039;t buy our way out of being lazy and destroying the earth.
