Happy FTW One Month Anniversary Of The Gulf Oil Spill

Boo to the ocean killers!   Here’s a celebratory virtual scrapbook in their honor.

DICK QUOTE OF THE YEAR: “We will fix it. I guarantee it. The only question is we do not know when. The Gulf of Mexico is a very big ocean. The amount of volume of oil and dispersant we are putting into it is tiny in relation to the total water volume.”  ~BP CEO Tony Hayward

World Water Day: Clean Water For A Healthy World 3/22/10

Today is World Water Day so get ready for a flurry of water related posts.

Brita and Nalgene (the real BPA-free reusable bottle-cough*SIGG*cough) teamed up to create the FilteForGood pledge to reduce bottled water waste.  Together, filtered water and a reusable bottle are a solution for going green at home and on the go.

Take the pledge and fill your reusable bottle instead of the landfill.

About World Water Day

March 22 was first deemed World Water Day in 1993 by the United Nations Conference on Environment and Development (UNCED) as an international day of observance and action to draw attention to the role that freshwater plays in our world and lives. Today’s reality is that one in eight people in the world don’t have access to safe water, millions of women and children must still spend several hours a day collecting water from distant, often polluted sources, and 2.5 billion people live without a toilet.

To do something about that UN-Water has chosen Clean Water for a Healthy World as theme for World Water Day 2010. The overall goal of the World Water Day on 22 March 2010 campaign is to raise the profile of water quality at the political level so that water quality considerations are made alongside those of water quantity.

Look What Washed Up On Our Beaches

Southern California beaches delivered our own trash right back at us after last week’s storms.  Rubber tires, shoes, bottles, cans, toys, food wrappings, shopping carts and over all crap washed up on shores, putting the Department of Public Works on overtime mode to clean it up before the next rain comes in which is supposed to be today.

Next time that trash falls out of your car and you just leave it, remember that winds and rain eventually pull that into our storm drains, creeks and riverbeds which leads into our oceans.  Take pride, don’t litter.

Rent A Living Tree For Christmas

Founded in 2008, the Living Christmas Company, a socially conscious-based business headquartered in Redondo Beach, Calif., introduced a new concept of celebrating the holidays: Renting the highest quality local varieties of living Christmas trees as an environmentally conscious alternative to traditional cut or artificial trees.

You get a live, potted tree delivered to your doorstep. Simply choose from a wide variety of locally-grown trees and they will deliver it to your home or business. After Christmas they ‘ll pick up your tree and return it to their nursery until next year. You can even watch your tree grow as your family grows by adopting the same tree year-after-year.

This year, Living Christmas paired up with Goodwill, so if you have any clutter you want to unload, just have it ready when they come to pick your tree up and they will deliver your donations for you!

I don’t do holiday decorations any more but this is making me want to, especially if the owner- Mr. Scotty Claus is doing the deliveries himself. *wink*

Intolerable Beauty: Portraits Of American Mass Consumption By Chris Jordan

Cell phones #2, Atlanta 2005 44 x 90″

Crushed Cars #3, Tacoma 2004 44×60″

Recycling Yard #6, Seattle 2004 44×59″

Haunting and thought provoking comes to mind when viewing the photographic works by Chris Jordan, a Seattle-based photographer and environmental advocate.

Every day, 426,000 cell phones are discarded.

Photographer Chris Jordan heard statistics like that and wondered “what, exactly, does that mean? What does that number look like?”

His answer resulted in a unique photographic document that puts into perspective precisely how much is thrown away by otherwise responsible citizens.

I love his work. Check out Running the Numbers and Midway: Message from the Gyre

I have to admit, while house cleaning recently, I was tempted to throw away my Sonicare toothbrush. On the Phillips website, they claim you can recycle the battery and they listed Best Buy and Radio Shack as places to take them to. Well guess what? They fucking lied! I went to both places and my ass got denied. I was so frustrated, I just wanted to toss it. But I came home, read how to take out the damn battery myself and then took it to an e-Cycle drop off. Total pain but I felt good for making the effort.

Please take the time and effort to recycle your gadgets. Don’t toss them in the trash! The electronics don’t recycle themselves. You buy ‘em, you take them to e-Cycle heaven.

Gucci’s Signature Stripe Just Got Cooler. And Greener

I never thought I would see this day but now that it’s here, let’s join arms in an interlocking G formation.

Gucci has joined forces with the Rainforest Action Network and decided to stop using paper from Indonesian rainforests and plantations as well as avoiding the suppliers Asia Pulp and Paper.

“Standing rainforests are not a luxury, they’re a necessity if the world wants to stop climate change,” said Mimma Viglezio, executive VP for global communications. “Our actions are lowering our own carbon footprint, but we hope that they will also raise awareness inside the fashion industry that it’s possible for our industry to make a difference for rainforests and for the climate.”

With this policy, they are ensuring that all paper categories used by the group, from printing paper to shopping bags, do not come from endangered forests.

The Gucci Group also owns Yves Saint Laurent, Balenciaga, Stella McCartney and Alexander McQueen so this small change is going to make a HUGE difference.

Ladies Take It Off For Climate Change

It’s not Playboy material and I’m not sure how effective the message is coming from 350.org, but hey- it’s girls stripping down (kinda) and it’s for environment, so I ain’t gonna knock it.

What is 350?

350 is the estimated safe level of CO2 (in parts per million) for our atmosphere, a level first announced by Nasa scientist Jim Hanson in 2007 and most recently endorsed by Rajenda Pachauri, the head of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change. The problem? We are already at 390, way over the 350 mark that some scientists believe is even too high.

Mother Jones Calls Out Fiji Water

A post on the Fiji Water Blog attempts to answer the issues brought up in a recent Mother Jone article: “The real irony here is that the reporter suggests that buying FIJI Water somehow legitimizes a military dictatorship, when in fact the jobs, revenues, and community projects supported by FIJI Water are strong contributors to growth in the well-being of the Fijian people.” Oh, and there’s a Mother Jones response to the response in the comments of the Fiji Water Blog post.

Brent Bolthouse Photography Show: Greenland (A Beautiful Lie)

Excited about hitting this up tonight. From the invite:

These photographs are the story of my trip to Greenland with my good friends from Thirty Seconds to Mars.
Jared Leto went to Greenland on an environmental mission to shoot a video for his band’s single, A Beautiful Lie, and invited me along to take photos.

He came back with an incredible video that focuses on the effect global warming is having on the world’s coldest climates and I came back with the photographs featured in this show.

Although it has only been two years since my trip, the glaciers and icebergs have already changed dramatically. I hope you enjoy the exhibit, but also take time to reflect on the fact that this ice is disappearing at an alarming rate.

Brazilian PSA: Give Your Shower A Golden Shower

Warning: If you’re at work I would turn the volume down. Here’s a rough translation:

Pee in the shower! We want everyone to do it!
Men! Women! Children! Brazilians! Or not! Nobles! Commoners! Musicians! Sports stars! People half-human, half-monster. Twilight creatures! Brazilian legends. Greek legends. Good people. Not so good people. Art geniuses. Science geniuses Circus performers. Lovers! People from other planets! Movie stars!

To sum it up: If you pee, you’re invited.
(when you flush you waste up to 12 liters of drinkable water / 4380 liters in one year)
Pee in the bath! Help the Atlantic Forest.

Only recommended if you have good drainage. And make sure R. Kelly ain’t around.

Earth Cinema Circle

I’ve been reading about Earth Cinema Circle for quite some time and I’ve finally made the decision to join after realizing I’m pretty obsessed with movies such as ‘Food Inc.’ and ‘The Cove.’ Movies like these don’t usually get an entire back wall of “Guaranteed In Stock!” at Blockbuster- but they should!

Earth Cinema Circle is a DVD club dedicated to increasing social & environmental awareness through entertaining films.

How it works: Every other month the customer is sent 1 DVD containing 4 environmental movies on it. It is sent in 100% recycled packaging and after viewing the movies, they’re yours to keep. All that for the low price of $17.95 (plus $4.95 s+h.) Bonus: Earth Circle Cinema is sponsored by Gaiam and narrated by Ed Begley, Jr. Beat that Netflix!

If you break that down, including shipping, you’re only paying $5.73 a movie. Cheaper than a matinee and more fulfilling than the entire box set of Gossip Girl.

Check it out and do your recession ridden wallets a favor and support environmental filmmakers by joining Earth Cinema Circle now!

Then all you need are some of these eco-friendly, good for the planet, non-leaching (good for you,) reusable bottles and ta-dow! How you like me now?

Something In The Blood Ain’t Clean

In Nova Scotia, Canada, there’s a problem with tampon applicators backing up the sewer system and overflowing into the ocean (hello ladies, it’s called a trash can and your brain- use them.)

Recently, a Dutch tampon company Libresse thought it would be a great idea to drop thousands of tampons with little parachutes attached to them out of planes and onto 6 popular Dutch beaches. Why? Well, the manufacturer of Libresse wants the females to put a bloody cork in it (literally) and hit the beaches while Aunt Dot is visiting. Seriously ladies. Why let that pesky little crimson tide between your legs stop you from having fun in the sun?

I just wanna thank the cooter plug maker for adding to our pollution problem. Oh and for contributing to that other thing- when birds and aquatic animals mistake plastics for food, eat them and choke to death..yeah, your marketing scheme was pure genius. The Great Pacific Garbage Patch is just a joke right? Well I saw it on Oprah so it must be real!

Look what we’ve done
What about all the peace
That you pledge your only son…
What about flowering fields
Is there a time
What about all the dreams
That you said was yours and mine…
Did you ever stop to notice
All the children dead from war
Did you ever stop to notice
The crying Earth the weeping shores

The Cove Movie

The Cove, which has won honors at many film festivals, including the Audience Award at January’s Sundance Film Festival, chronicles the efforts of Richard O’Barry and the Save Japan Dolphins Coalition to stop the brutal annual slaughter of thousands of dolphins in Japan. The Cove also won the Audience Award at the Toronto Film Festival and the Newport Beach Film Festival.

“The dolphin slaughter is scheduled to begin again on September 1st,” notes Richard O’Barry, Director of Save Japan Dolphins. “The world-wide exposure of the dolphin slaughter through The Cove movie is going to put a spot-light on this secret environmental disaster. It can’t happen too soon.”

“We believe The Cove will be a game-changer,” stated David Phillips, Director of Earth Island Institute’s International Marine Mammal Project, a members of the Save Japan Dolphins Coalition. “Japan’s flaunting of international agreements and international norms must end — the killing of dolphins and whales is no longer accepted by civilized society.”

HOME is a 2009 documentary by Yann Arthus-Betrand (photographer of “Earth from Above” book.). The film is entirely composed of aerial shots of various places around Earth. It shows the diversity of life on Earth and how humanity is threatening the ecological balance of the planet.

The movie was released simultaneously on June 5th (World Environmental Day) in cinemas all over the world, on DVD, TV and on YouTube. Released on the same date in 50 countries is a world record for any film release in history. The film is 100% free, and no profits will be made from its release or future showings.

Making this movie was an unusual risk for its financial backer, one of the planet’s biggest retailing conglomerates, France’s PPR SA. PPR, the maker of Gucci handbags and Puma shoes, paid PPR, the maker of Gucci handbags and Puma shoes, paid 10 million euros ($20.55 million) of the 12 million euro production budget to create HOME.

Laurent Claquin, senior vice-president of corporate social and environmental responsibility at PPR, said the company took a chance on the film.

“It’s true we’re putting ourselves at risk in a way,” said “We’re not perfect yet. We’re never going to be perfect. But we have a duty to act.”

In an interview with the magazine, Miranda admits that she has decided to take her kit off to draw public attention to the extinction of koala bears. “It’s a sad thing,” she tells Rolling Stone. “There are only about 100,000 koalas left in Australia. Something like 80 percent of the koalas’ habitat has been destroyed since Europeans arrived in Australia.”

The World According to Monsanto is an in-depth documentary that looks at the domination of the agricultural industry from one of the world’s most insidious and powerful companies.

This is one of the most powerful, must see films for anyone interested in the behind the scenes world of the food industry, and how just one world dominating corporation holds the keys and patents to much of the worlds food supply.

Monsanto, which started out as one of the planets largest chemical companies is also reposonsible for such chemical compounds as Agent Orange, Bovine Growth Hormone, PCBs and genetically-engineered crops.
