by Rachel Znerold on Jan 21, 2010
Like a good eco-citizen, I’ve been staying up on the Whole Foods Boycott debate, and can’t help but think how lucky (or privileged) we are to be able to have this discussion. No one talks about the idea that having a grocery store at all is a “luxury,” because, well, it shouldn’t be. Yet in [...]

Flying Green.
by Elise Ertel on Sep 25, 2009
San Francisco Airport Now Offers Carbon Offset Credits. Travelling is always stressful. Especially air-travel. If arriving at the airport 4 hours before your flight is not enough, we also need to consider the significant damage we are causing our planet with the decision to fly.

Los Angeles Plastic Bag Ban to Go into Effect in 2010?
by Lindsey Wolf on Jul 31, 2008
Following San Francisco’s lead on a ban that took effect last November, I had read that L.A.’s City Council just voted to outlaw disposable bags by 2010. L.A. uses more than 2 billion disposable bags every year, of which only 5% of plastic bags are recycled and 21% of paper bags. However I also just read that the ban [...]
