The modern green/eco movement is bringing back the idea of eating local, having a garden, saving energy, etc. and pointing out the links between items (like bottled water and oil).
But we've been here before. Check out these WWI gov't posters.
"Don't waste paper - a pound of paper wasted is a pound of fuel wasted"
"Keep the home garden going"
Check out all the detailed instructions in that one. Public education indeed.

That coal poster is sure topical today.
