This week, I've decided to compile a list of the top ten ways you can reduce your personal water consumption.
1) Take short, waste-free showers. For example, turn off the water when you are shampooing your hair, and only keep the water on for as long as it takes to get clean....... [view]

Heart to Heart
By Betty Ann Blaine
Dear Reader,
IT started off with fewer than 2,000 young people about four weeks ago, and in a flash it has mushroomed into a global movement. “Occupy Wall Street” is now “Occupy...... [view]

Not too long ago, when that particular day was hot, and I was particularly thirsty, I went to the fridge and fished out a small tetrapak of strawberry flavoured milk which I had bought a few days ago. I began tearing the transparent plastic cover to remove the straw when it struck me how little...... [view]

Reflections of Fidel
NEWS arriving from the Danish capital paints a picture of chaos. After planning an event in which around 40,000 people were to participate, the hosts have no way of keeping their promise. Evo, who was the first of the ALBA presidents to arrive there, expressed...... [view]

Description: I'm from a resourse-less small country in far east and I often feel uncomfortable about waste and indifference about it in this country (U.S.). I do believe plastic bags for shopping will be extinct some time in the future in New York but I'd like to accelerate that speed, hopefully! I myself use a cotton shopping bag. In my hometown (city in Tokyo), a municipal government charges five cents for one plastic bag (strictly speaking, the reality is a bit different) to promote "bring your own bag" and my-bag-ratio is increasing. I could see that super markets in New York sell reusable shopping bags nowadays (a big move!) but I rarely see them in use at cash registers. How can we promote "my shopping bag" or guilty feeling to use plastic bag? (Let me know your thoughts!)
As a first step toward my goal, I'd like to convince at least one person "to bring his/her bag" for shopping. [view]
