Love the new eco-friendly "green" look. I also have been enjoying the great content in the Green channel. I've always been about natural living and being more green with everything, so that category addition was great for me.
Thanks! :-)
This sounds great AC Laura but I do wish to leave one cautionary note of advice for potential contributors to this channel, which is a coincidence because I was just working on the topic. I did a book review (though not yet approved for posting) on Thomas L. Friedman's "Hot, Flat and Crowded: Why We Need a Green Revolution." Friedman made a point that made sense. He said he is irritated when he sees endless writeups involving "101 Easy Ways to be Green" or "10 Painless Ways to Save the Planet" or "50 Simple Things to Rescue the Earth." It's going to be harder than that, Friedman says, because we're all going to have to make major life changes and sacrifices. Is Friedman being overly dramatic? Regardless, it does seem true that maybe we can avoid "easy" and "painless" and "simple." Thanx AC Laura! ~~~ mike ~~~ p.s.: the book is a really good read, as is the website, thomaslfriedman.com, with various ideas discussed in a section called "Chapter 18."
Really like the new 'green' channel - looks very cool. And I think it's great that all the eco-friendly articles have their own separate page, it's important in today's polluted world.
Just wish AC had left the green color for the whole site - much nicer than the blah blue :-)
