Give consumers simple tools and they will jump on the green bandwagon. For one more proof, see my latest post on Environmental Graffiti, inspired from New York Times article:
‘Pioneering Energy Saving Program in Seattle Puts Consumer in Control‘
They would, if only the state utility companies went along . . .

Here is the link to my latest post on Environmental Graffiti:
‘State of California Wins Major Fight Against Auto Industry‘
Again, California is leading the way on the environmental front . . . I must say I am very proud of the role played by E2 (Environmental Entrepreneurs) in the passing of the AB 1493 California Clean Cars Bill, the same law that could, if all goes well with the recent ruling, set the standards for cars emission, nationwide. I am a member of E2, and it is largely in part due to E2’s advocacy efforts, that AB 1493 got signed. What it takes as a citizen: supporting E2 with my yearly subscription to NRDC, attending E2’s monthly meetings, and signing E2’s petition letter, along with all the other E2 members.
Small effort, huge payout.

Ever wonder if you can make a difference for a more sustainable world? Read the article I wrote on Lisa Max, in Environmental Graffiti:

If you are like Lisa, and have been an agent of sustainable changes in your community, drop me a note. I have this series of guest posts on La Marguerite, where I invite people just like you, to share their stories. It’s called BlogActs, for blogging and activism.

Inspired by a recent article in the San Francisco Chronicle. First nature, now science . . . We are preparing ourselves for a future of young people totally unequipped to deal with the challenges ahead of us.
