Come on, people!

Seriously.

OK, if people still don’t believe that global warming is a real and very dangerous threat (I’m talking to YOU, Mr. President) then they are living in a fantasyland. Please, please, PUH-LEEEESE do something to conserve today. Anything! Don’t use a bag at a grocery store or decide to carpool instead of driving your mammoth SUV. Or just shut off the lights when you leave the room. Or unplug your electronics when you’re not using them.

Because if my daughter has to live in a giant bubble or wear a damn spacesuit to go outdoors in her lifetime, I will be severly pissed. And you don’t want to mess with me.

Green Tip of the Week

Try using reusable bags instead of getting a new plastic bag each time you shop. These ones are great, because not only do they come in fun, modern colors, they also fold up into little keychain clips. Easy to carry, and always at the ready. I got mine at a local store for $4.99, and I constantly use them. To carry Lu’s stuff, to get lunch, to pick up a few things at the store. I’ll probably upgrade to a bigger unit at some point, but for now, these are great!
