My name is Nick Smith, I love doing just about anything outdoors including, but not limited to: hiking, running, log rolling, and backpacking. I have somewhat recently been converted to cycling and I am loving it (not racing or anything, I just ride my bike to school and work, but I love it).
As a mechanical engineer who cares a lot about the environment, I like looking for practical and simple things we can all do to be better citizens of Earth. In this blog I will try to regularly examine different simple tricks and how effective or ineffective they may be in saving our planet
