Blogging and Journalism used to have a LOT of sibling rivalry. AssHats like Karl Rove still deride bloggers as less than valid when it suits them. But there is a lot more symbiosis these days. Big news media is co-opting the blogging format and bloggers are being invited to the party. I think that this is mostly a good thing.

Another positive change involves the increased attention to the cause of reducing plastic use. The BBC hosts a blog called Month Without Plastic. I found out about it because I am on the blogroll (Yay!!!).

Chris Jeavans is attempting to live a normal life with one big change, no new plastic.
