Everything changes, and stays the same

In the picture below, the little fellow on the horse is now almost 40. He just sent me this photographic relic: “no nukes, safe energy” march along a north country road, almost 35 years ago. We’re still talking about safe energy, aren’t we? No recent anti-nuke marches here, but the conversation is still the same: what do we have to do to reduce, reuse and recycle the resources we draw from our planet?
Laurie Willow, Jason Stern (her son, on the horse), Gabe Rocco (Ellen's first husband), Ellen Rocco, 1976, no nukes march, somewhere in the north country.
But times have changed in one way: so many people are thinking and talking about our energy use in a way that was reserved for just a few “fringe” thinkers 35 years ago. What’s your best idea for how to conserve or re-use energy? And, if you recognize the location of the photo above, let me know. I’m stumped.
