I'm looking forward to some interesting answers...thanks for reading!

With global warming gaining more and more scientific backing there is much discussion about how to minimize usage of fossil fuels etc and ways to dimish waste. But is there one thing that, if each of us did, would make a significant difference? As I did a random search with my question I found the website below. It offers an interesting idea, but will it work? If so, how can we encourage everyone to do it and if not, then is there anything that will?

Thanks for reading!

I know Le Creuset cookware is worth the high ticket price, but I have the opportunity to buy several pieces for more about half the price, but they are labeled "seconds". Obviously, they didn't meet some criteria in the making that puts these pieces in that category. Does anyone own any Le Creuset seconds? If so, please share your experience.

Thanks in advance!
