Join me and "Do the Green Thing"

  
Stay Grounded by Lauren Broderick

Green Thing looks like an interesting site and the concept is simple — they are a not-for-profit public service that inspires creative people and community members from around the world to lead a greener life. So, once you sign up, you can view or upload your own videos and inspiring stories etc. Their manifesto focuses on seven things you can do - and enjoy doing - to lead a greener life: walk the walk, stay grounded, all-consuming, easy on the meat, human heat, plug out and stick with what you've got. Their website is fun and loaded with cute illustrations and chock full of social media outlets to help you stay involved (check out their Flickr page to view more illustrations like the one above.)

The Art of Music

21 international artists, graphic designers and illustrators were asked to create an original poster of the gig of their dreams. Really, really nice stuff up here.

The Who Farm (The White House Organic Farm Project)

What a great idea. Watch the video then click here to learn more about the project and to sign the petition.

November 4th and Starbucks

I don't do Starbucks in New Orleans but I'll admit, this is nicely done (and I never pass up free coffee!)

Yo, where my bees at?

I've been fascinated by the disappearing honeybee saga of late. Although scientists have pinpointed a likely culprit, IAPV, no solid evidence has yet conclusively linked colony collapse disorder (CCD) to said virus.

Haagan Dazs is the latest of food corporations who are pitching in to support research by setting up Help The Honeybees as a means to raise money and awareness ; I couldn't resist posting the above video.
