* Here's what I posted on the WikiProject Environment talk page: "There's a new article that was titled "Zero Impact" and that I've moved to [[Zero impact living]]. It's quite detailed, but it looks more like an essay than an article, and I wonder how separate this concept is from [[Sustainable living]] and [[Simple living]]. Thoughts? ... Turns out it is for a class project: ''"We have completed our page and would like to publish it for general viewing. We ask that it is not edited for at least 3 days, as a professor will be grading it for us."''" So the current title is my doing. I see no real value in the article, it is just an essay that mixes together a whole bunch of topics in the manner of an essay, as that's what it is. Delete and redirect to [[No Impact Man]] is fine by me.

* I disagree. I think this article might refresh some topics, but on the whole worthy of staying in the Wikipedia. As people might be looking for similar topics, they might search for it with different terminology. That is not to say that some articles shouldn't redirect, but this seems like enough of a different concept to merit its own entry. |

Original research, and no indication that the term is notable separate of sustainable living. The phrase "zero impact living" does not appear in any of the references, and seems to be a neologism coined by Colin Beavan. The article appears to have been created as a school project. – Hysteria18 (Talk • Contributions) 22:09, 8 December 2009 (UTC)
- Redirect to No Impact Man. That's what the article is mainly about. -- Blanchardb -Me•MyEars•MyMouth- timed 23:10, 8 December 2009 (UTC)
- Here's what I posted on the WikiProject Environment talk page: "There's a new article that was titled "Zero Impact" and that I've moved to Zero impact living. It's quite detailed, but it looks more like an essay than an article, and I wonder how separate this concept is from Sustainable living and Simple living. Thoughts? ... Turns out it is for a class project: "We have completed our page and would like to publish it for general viewing.

I see no real value in the article, it is just an essay that mixes together a whole bunch of topics in the manner of an essay, as that's what it is. Delete and redirect to No Impact Man is fine by me. Fences&Windows 01:15, 9 December 2009 (UTC)
