Bamboo

Bamboo is a versatile material. It’s as easy to grow as grass in many regions. Actually it is grass. We have new shading installed in our yard that was built and installed by the same guys that harvested it.

    I think the coolest thing about this series of videos is how the documenter has his world view reshaped by the experience. I hope this video gets a lot of exposure so that many other people who have been complacent about plastic waste up to now will change as well. I am going to embed it on some of my other blogs that do not have an environmental theme as well.

  • Tom Green Hosting an Environmental Program?

    The good news is that they are launching a new television channel that is completely related to environmental topics.

    The bad news is that it is a load of crap just like the rest of television.

    One program will feature Tom Green hosting an environmentally themed game show. I get it. His last name is GREEN. Maybe CNN Money should track down Eddy Money and get him to host a show too.

    Here is a link where you can watch Tom driving an old Lincoln Continental for no particular reason.

    Credit for this picture goes to www.wasteplastictechnology.blogspot.com, a blog promoting the use of waste plastic as a source of energy. I don’t think that is the best direction to take. It seems like it is just sending the pollutants somewhere else, namely into the air that we breath.

    The blog gave me some things to think about, though.

    I was reminded of the fact that cruise ships routinely dump their waste at sea. I think responsible consumers should insist on responsible cruise ships.
