I'm not sure if anyone has mentioned it but if the OP wants to reduce his footprint environmentally consider the damage just using this forum has for the environment. I'm in Australia so his post from California about saving the planet is sent through a multitude of servers all consuming not insignificant amounts of energy then delivered to my home by my provider while I run either a desktop, laptop, tablet or phone, most of which are also attached in some way to wifi polluting the environment in an unseen manner.

The differential between your one internet post and the environmental harm of a disposable razor is worth pondering.

So just by replying to this thread I have probably been instrumental in the use of more coal or nuclear power around the planet. We cannot really "win" but we can, where we choose be responsible for the things we do.
