Yesterday I posted about the polar bear being declared threatened due to climate change. Does this inspire you to fight climate change?
We frequently talk about small steps you can talk to reduce your impact, but sometimes it’s nice to see a good old list all in one place. Some of these ideas will save you […]
zeroOout is an inspiring group of four Connecticut teens who are raising awareness about global warming through fashion.
They sell some cool shirts with the line, WARM is not COOL. Several retailers in Connecticut sell the shirts, and they’re also available online.
The group uses part of the dough from sales to […]
You know, I spaced World Health Day (which falls on April 7th) this year until the last minute. I used to write on lots of health topics and followed WHO obsessively. Sadly, not this year. The theme of World Health Day this year is, “Protecting health from climate change.”
Obviously this would be a great topic […]
We originally hugged the polar bear in February, but it’s been a bit neglected. (Please check out that post if you missed it.)

This is very odd considering that […]
The full title is a little long: How We Know What We Know About Our Changing Climate: Scientists and Kids Explore Global Warming.
Newly released, this book by Lynne Cherry, author of The Great Kapok Tree, fills the gap left by other global warming books for kids. It explains the fascinating ways in which research about […]
World Wildlife Fund (WWF) describes the pika as a small flower-gathering relative of the rabbit. That’s really one of the sweetest descriptions I’ve ever heard. These plant eaters are also described as shy creatures that whistle to each other.
I’ve never actually seen a pika. And that’s no wonder since I don’t live where they […]
Hey all, I got a heads up about a cool podcast that I’m sure you’ll want to check out.
The Celsias Show hails from Celsias.com, an international environmental blog, and the goal of the show is to add some edgy humor, fun, and interactive elements to some serious issues like global warming, carbon credits, and more.
The […]
