Video Essay: Green everyday

I know that I haven't been blogging as much about my art...which I am getting back to, BTW. But as spring comes, I am moved to think more and more about the environment, which is something that we think about all the time here. So I put together this little video essay with a few of the little things (beyond what I have already written about in this blog) that we do around here to be green)




Enjoy! (Comments are always appreciated)

A Bright Idea

In recognition of the Live Earth concerts happening all around the world today (who's intent is good, even if I am dubious of the actual "greenness" of the event itself) I thought that I would tip everyone off to the efforts of my friend, Ken Luna. Ken had this revelation a couple years ago, that if you gave every child in the USA a Compact Fluorescent Light bulb to replace a regular incandescent bulb you could reduce greenhouse emissions. You can see more about Ken's efforts here:



Ken is a sweet guy, we teach in the same district, we have the same solar contractor (yup, my house is solar too) and he has some great ideas. Let's hear it for the regular folk trying to make a difference.
