I was subscribed to the treehugger blog for a while, but they just overwhelm you with news. I wanna save the world too, but don’t have time to sift through a hundred blog posts a day to do it. Same reason why I don’t read lifehacker or some of these other uber popular blogs – there’s just TOO much content for me to handle.

Consumers can now “opt out” of receiving telephone books at www.YellowPagesGoesGreen.org. This organization will contact the publishers and inform them to stop delivering books. This is a free service for consumers. www.YellowPagesGoesGreen.org is working with state and local governments on ordinances concerning the delivery of unsolicited telephone books. www.YellowPagesGoesGreen.org is not against the telephone books but against the delivery of 4 to 5 pounds of paper on people’s door step 5 to 6 times per year and being told it is our responsibility to recycle something we did not ask for. If we need a book we will call. Otherwise I “opt out” from receiving it One if the best ways to stop waste if not to get it in the first place.

Walden was a book that one of my high school teachers introduced to our class to show us what a journal was like. It wasn't hard to be mesmerized by the straightforwardness, honesty, and enthusiasm of the book. It's been a favorite for years. Local recycling efforts need some work. Hopefully we can take some action to make it easier to recycle in my community. I'm hoping that I can introduce some new readers to some of the blogs I've been finding and reading lately, pointing out some different ones every week. Simply Stephen, thank you.

Ah, Walden, what a beautiful read...amazing that 150 years later it still stands true on advice for simplifying life. The carbon footprint is meant to act as a guideline, a reminder that we can all do more to offset our impact. The simple act of making things more "green friendly" is no the answer, consuming less is. If your city is reducing your recycling efforts - do something about it. One person can make a difference, you know the routine (tell 2 friends, who tell 2 friends). Go to your city councilor, talk to the newspapers, petition your government. You pay taxes and have a right to request changes to your system. As for green websites and tools, there are tons of them, yet only climate change seems to show up in the top thousand searches every day. We can change this by posting on green topics and adding a little green to our lives every day. An excellent post.

I'm looking forward to writing more on green topics, planting trees, being exposed to new ideas from the many environmental feeds I've been adding to my RSS reader, and sharing many of those here. Writing about search engines is fine and good, but it's more important to wonder and consider the decline of honey bees and amphibians, the impact of a warming environment, and about how we separate ourselves from nature instead of trying to live in harmony with it. Your support means so much to me - thank you for constantly being an inspiration. Thank you, Kimberly.

Either due to waste of our inner resources or our global resources. We can market our products, services and hoopla. Live for the here and now. Become ever more distant from things that truly matter to the future of the world and our relationships. But one day, when there's nothing left to exploit and to suck dry, those that did nothing to save it will in fact be those also complaining and crying over the conditions that have led to our lack. It's nice to see that you are choosing to dedicate a weekly post to green efforts Bill. Thanks for giving me some pep in the right direction this morning.
