G Living: Contemporary Green Lifestyle Network
The first thing I said when I went to the G Living Network site was, “WOW, that Brendan Brazier character is hot.” C’mon girls, we’re just coming off the World Cup where all men are created equal…to Adonis. Green Living seems to be pumping out a multi-media network, which includes…

Mountain Clubs or Country Clubs?

Pollan Speaks Out
Grist has a great interview with Michael Pollan, author of the new book Omnivore’s Dilemma (I’m reading it now! So far, it’s pretty amazing…) in their newsletter this week. My favorite quote was Pollan’s assertion that the connections between what we eat and the environment are strong (duh), and tie…
From the Left and the Right: Meeting in the Green
I may not agree with Greg on every issue, but I love the fact that his explanation for “Why I’m Green” is just a photo essay of him in beautiful surroundings like the above shot. The Republican party was not always the go-to group when it came to environmental armageddon (not…
In Their Own Words
I stumbled upon the site for the Inuit people of Canada, Alaska, and the Arctic while doing some global warming research, and they have put together great book that describes the significant changes they are seeing in the Arctic and sub-Arctic regions. Most of us have heard that the ice…
Give a "Hoot"!
Following on the be-sneakered heels of eco-lite kids’ movies of the past few years, (like Ice Age:The Meltdown and Finding Nemo) is Hoot, which is coming out in May. Hoot is the story of a boy who moves from Montana to Florida and works with his friends to save some endangered owls (though…
