Animals In Medical Research?
When we talk of using animals for biomedical research there are two ground cases as to why it is morally unacceptable; first, it wrongly violates the rights of animals and second because it wrongly imposes on sentient creatures avoidable suffering. In the following I will explain when neither of these…
Stars Come Down to Earth
Not surprisingly, now that environmentalism is ‘hot’, the stars are coming out in support of various green causes. Of course some notable celebrities have long shined light on various aspects of the environmental movement (Leo, Darryl, and Woody, I’m talkin’ about you!) So I was really excited when I found…
Organic Snap, Crackle, & Pop
A great memory of being a kid in the early 80’s was Saturday mornings cartoons on ABC beginning at 8:00am and then a good old bowl of Kellogg’s Rice Krispies. Today, there are hardly any great cartoons on at all on Saturday mornings for children, but now at least there…

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…
That Boy Gots Balls of Steel
I’m a liberal…no surprise there…Chances are if you are wearing the “C” on your sleeve as opposed to the “L,” you’re missing out on one fine fellow: Steven Colbert. I was watching some videos on Current TV as of late, with an old highlight on Colbert’s stand-up at the White…
Vanity Fair's Green Issue Party
Vanity Fair’s party for their green issue was so much fun that I was still recovering from it 24 hours later. (It was the green martinis the amazing bartenders whipped up, and the red ones…and the wine….and not enough of the delicious raw and vegan food from Pure Food…
Laurie David, I Presume?
Laurie David is everywhere these days. And that’s not hyperbole. She’s omnipresent in the green world, from a huge profile in Vogue’s March “Power” issue, to Women’s Wear Daily, to another profile in Elle (which I’m guessing led to her guest-editing the upcoming May “Green” Elle, printed on 10% recyled stock). Who is…
