What Earth Day means to me

earth day 2010

You have to believe in “Green”

Los Angeles Smog

Saying that you want to “go green” is a lot easier than doing it. You have to make new choices every day. There is a big learning curve, what is green, what isn’t green and so on. It could get so frustrating that you may just want to walk away from it all together. Don’t. [...]

Book Review: The Green Collar Economy

The Green Collar Economy

This book caught my attention.  Its a wild ride!  Make no mistake, this book is a call to action and a cry for help.  Whatever your opinion on climate change, the fact that resources are running low and our economy is suffering is something that cannot be ignored.  Van Jones is emotionally charged and continuously [...]
