To each their own, i think he's fucking nuts though. I'd buy his bullshit if he was living in a shack out in the woods and growing his own food and living in actual harmony with nature, but please, a well-heeled NYC liberal? You must be out your damn mind.
do people in the suburbs use more resources, yes, rural areas? Please, take a look at a tribe of Amazonians and then look at your average New Yorker or compare this "no-impact guy" to famed luddite Ted Kazinsky.
I do see your point though that people in "developed" rural areas with trucks and houses and whatnot would lead a suburban-esque lifestyle as far as amounts of resources consumed compared to city dwellers.

People in cities use fewer resources than people in suburbs and rural areas, especially New Yorkers.

if i have to live like people before 1857 to save the world then i'm out
wiping with a sponge on a stick and cleaning the sponge with a bucket of salt water is not so bad...
