A CALL TO ARMS!
I don't want to scare anyone, but it's supposed to be sixty degrees today.
It's almost January.
Those polar ice caps are melting as we speak, aren't they? A friend of mine came up with a great idea - she's giving these as gifts this year and I'm totally going to follow suit: Compact Fluorescent Light Bulbs. She says that you'd never know they were flourescent, that the glow is really warm and nice. (You can get them at Home Depot.)
"If every American home replaced just one light bulb with an ENERGY STAR, we would save enough energy to light more than 2.5 million homes for a year and prevent greenhouse gases equivalent to the emissions of nearly 800,000 cars." A call to arms, people! This is an easy, inexpensive thing to do. If everyone who reads this goes out and replaces their bulbs with Energy Star bulbs, that's like taking... math skills, please... A LOT OF CARS off the road!
Next up: Buying a battery recharger. Small steps. Small steps.

I've been using those bulbs for a while. Love em. Glad you are leading the charge Ali!
This really is scary. I can't believe it's getting so little press...that Britney's bare biscuit is more important.
Did you catch the piece in October about fish possibly disappearing from the oceans? Hardly a peep. Freaked me right out. I blogged about it under "It's Going to Get Harder to Find Nemo".
