The Many Names of Linux Kernels 73
dartttt writes "Not many people know that Kernel releases have their codenames. Most of the Linux 2.6 and 3.x kernels include a name in the Makefile of their source trees, which can be found in the git repository. They are not publicized as such but some of them are really hilarious."

It's not just direct action, but also the consequences of your acts. Start consuming local products and goods, instead of having them imported at great environmental costs. Also try to shutdown anything sucking electricity the more often possible. There is a lot to do. But whining because your own comfort is compromised will not get you anywhere.
