Best of Blog Action Day


Blogging

In no particular order, here are my favorite posts from Blog Action Day 2007.

  • The Simple Secret to Making a Greener World – best sentence/thought: “Relearning skills pushed aside by thoughtless consumerism”
  • Read/Write Web’s Top 35 Environmental Blogs
  • Lifehacker: Easy Ways to Live Greener – I might give the cat litter composting a shot
  • Save Paper when Readers Print Your Blog – note to self: implement this
  • Reading Dirt: Eating Locally – often helps support local businesses, much better for the environment
  • Enviroblog: Know Your Source
  • Ultimate Linux Sacrifice for Blog Action Day – that’s right – “uptime” isn’t cool anymore – shut it off when you’re not using it
  • The Cascade Method of Doing Dishes – additional rather obvious note – don’t use the ridiculous ‘heated-drying’ feature of your dishwasher

      @Andrew Grey:

      Thanks so much for catching that! You’d think that I’d check to make sure the links weren’t broken but nope.. I should setup WordPress not to allow me to publish this late at night :)
