How To Save Energy

Whilst we have hundreds of tips throughout this site on how to save energy, CBS News in the US recently had a series of articles about saving energy. I see more and more news articles on US television about going green, the benefits of going green and especially about how it can save you money. It’s what a lot of us have been saying for years and it’s great to see it becoming more and more widespread.

Aspen Institute’s Environmental Forum Interviews

This was passed to me from Marilyn of the fascinating Intelligent Travel a few weeks back.

National Geographic’s magazine site has some interviews with attendees of the Aspen Institute’s Environmental Forum.

Interviewees include Canadian Inuit activist and Nobel Prize nominee Sheila Watt-Cloutier, who says those at the top of the world acutely feel the effects of global warming, climatologist Konrad Steffen talks about the surprising speed of ice loss in Greenland, and friend of Life Goggles Josh Dorfman, author of The Lazy Environmentalist, who explains that fighting climate change doesn’t require busy, stressed-out people to change their nature.

Very interesting, and there are many more so please take a look.

The North Pole Is Melting!

According to a Christmas email we received about a new video AtomFilms launched called The North Pole is Melting. The theme for this year’s Christmas/holiday season seems to be “Go Green” and this video is an animation of an elf singing about how global warming is affecting the North Pole and Santa (Al Gore seems to be even Santa’s only hope!).

Quite amusing at Christmas, you can preview the video below and visit AtomFilms if you want to see the whole thing. Have a great holiday everyone!
