Sadly, my wife and I are no more. She decided she wanted a new kitchen more than preserving the land it seems....

Thank you for creating this page.

My wife and I live on approx. 29 acres of timber and meadow, that has been in our family since about 1948. We are attempting to maintain a Protected Habitat classification through the state, with threatened plants and animal, and three state classified wetlands.

We would like to find a model to help us compute carbon sequesture for the property. If anyone on this group has experience with this issue, we would like pick your brain.

Found a great program on Cinnemoi (DirecTV) called Earth From Above.  If you can tolerate subtitles and dubbing, it's very informative and inspiring.

A blog on TA that might be of interest to various Greenie causes. Eating local, eating fresh, eating organic and many other fun ideas.

A flamenco-style dress inspired by TV's 'Strictly Come Dancing' has been created from reused Sainsbury's carrier bags. The dress, modelled by 18 year old Shanice Bailey-Farrell who works in the supermarket's Islington store, has been designed to encourage customers to reuse their plastic bags in the busy shopping period until Christmas. Sainsbury's will also be giving customers a free 'Bag for Life' in store on Sat 6th November, and will be rewarding customers with double Nectar points every time they reuse a bag for a whole week. The designer of the dress, Adnan Bayyat, says: "I created the dress by hand-crocheting Sainsbury's bags together. The dress took me an entire month to make"

"Unlike the plagues of the dark ages, or contemporary diseases (which) we do not yet understand, the modern plague of overpopulation is soluble by means we have discovered and with resources we possess. What is lacking is not sufficient knowledge of the solution, but universal consciousness of the gravity of the problem and the education of the billions who are it's victims."
~ Dr. Martin Luther King

Are Refurbished Computers Really Just as Good as New?

My old laptop was a real dinosaur. At age six, it took its sweet time to complete even the simplest of tasks. I developed a nervous tic of saving my blog posts every two or three minutes, since I never knew when my browser would freeze or suddenly quit. And since its battery was only good for about five minutes, my laptop was basically a desktop with a tiny screen.

I considered replacing it with a refurbished model, but in the end I was seduced by a brand new laptop that I figured could probably do more tricks than a used one. Besides, I had heard that newer models were actually better for the environment, since they used energy more efficiently than older models.

So was I right? Are new computers really a better deal than refurbished models in the long run? And which kind is better for the planet? To find out the answer, click here. [READ MORE]
