The Sierra Club has done a great job of making it real easy for you to shoot a quick email to your state senators and let them know that we need clean, safe, and renewable energy.
Despite what has just occurred in Japan there are still people in D.C. who say that we should build more nuclear power plants...
Click here to tell your senators that you dont want to worry about a nuclear explosion that could risk the health of yourself and your loved ones.
Thank you!
You and I CAN make a difference. :]

350 Day
Today is the day for all 350 events that are occurring worldwide. Visit the official 350 website to look at the amazing photos of people all over the world who are gathering for such a great cause.
Scientists have studied that 350 ppm of CO2 is a safe amount for humans to be living in. Currently we are at about 380ppm. Therefore we are currently living in an unhealthy amount of CO2 which leads to numerous health problems. It is amazing to see the pictures of people all over the world joining together for a great cause. Look at the photos. You will be inspired.

My School Is So Green!
I love how my college is one of the top greenest schools in America! We have a great recycling program on campus. I actually helped sort paper from a conveyer belt at the recycling center few weeks ago.
Also there is a sustainability council through on campus. I went to one meeting and found myself in charge of the Homecoming Parade float for Blue Goes Green. haha. I'm actually really excited. Theres going to be an electric car, some bikers, and people handing out green challenges.
Speaking of which- I have a challenge for you! Right now all GAP stores are taking any pair of used jeans and giving 30% your purchase of a new pair of gap 1968 jeans. They will turn the used denim into insulation for homes in need. Cool huh? GAP made a sweet video to promote their awesome sustainable event.
I do have to warn you: there is a part of this video that is not suitable for viewers under the age of 13.
Support companies going green! I know you have a pair of jeans that just don't belong in your wardrobe anymore. What better way for them to help a house in need of some warmth!!

Sierra Club Action on Massive Oil Spill
I am subscribed to The Sierra Club's e-mail announcements. I just recently got one that helped me take action by sending a message to President Obama asking him to stop all of his proposals for offshore oil drilling.
click here to send a letter to him and let him know that oil drilling is dangerous, deathly, and unhealthy.

My Blog Is Carbon Neutral
My cousin Cara sent me a link to a website that will plant a tree for your blog to offset its carbon emissions.
Click here to find out how a tree will be planted for your blog!
The trees will be planted in the spring of 2010 by the Arbor Day Foundation. They will be planted in the Plumas National Forest which is located in Northern California. The Arbor Day Foundation is helping to reforest after two devastating forest fires in 2007 that destroyed over 65,000 acres.
