These are my links for January 22nd from 09:30 to 09:35:
- TreeHugger: The “Naturally-Raised” Meat You Eat May Be Just the Opposite – The Bush administration’s definition of this phrase does not preclude cloned/genetically-engineered meat. It also does not equal “free-range”. Read article for details.
- TreeHugger: Move Over Paper – Rand McNally Maps Printed on Microfiber – They’re more reusable than paper, which is great. But are they made from a renewable material? And does this microfiber have a smaller carbon footprint than paper?
- Green Daily: Hybrids Makings Some Noise – Quiet hybrids do endanger pedestrians. But can’t we improve safety without increasing noise pollution?
- Worldchanging: Design Contest Announced: Green Patriot Posters – “During World War II, the WPA called upon artists to inspire U.S. citizens to change their habits, to work and consume differently, and to constantly place the war effort at the very forefront of their thoughts and actions.” So let’s use poster art to address the challenge of global warming.
- Gristmill: California dreaming – CA and 13 other states want to implement tougher auto emissions standards, but were blocked by the Bush administration.
- TreeHugger: UK Grocery Chain Sainsbury’s to Start Turning Wasted Food Into Electricity -

- TreeHugger: Seeger, Van Jones Embrace the Way of the Gun – “The pair’s enthusiasm is reserved for a particular make and model – the caulk gun. Seeger had been reading about Van Jones, a civil right leader and environmentalist who’s intent on greening the ghetto, and supports his premise for finding jobs for poor young people while reducing everyone’s carbon footprint. This is where the caulk gun comes in; Jones has suggested that 20 percent to 30 percent of a home’s energy is lost to leaky doors and windows.”
- TreeHugger: Moving To A Stable World Population
