WOW! Finally! Someone is listening. An electric car! Namely the Telsa Electric Car. It’s sexy, fast, sleek, quiet and emits zero emissions. This ‘guy’ can climb 0-60mph in 4 seconds. Top speed is clocked at 130mph. Don’t remember any American speed limits posted that high, so that should do just fine. […]

This segment of human impact on ecosystems, I thought, should start with describing some of the main culprits causing global warming, hence climate change.
One of my most interesting reads was about how large an effect cattle have on the pollution index scale. It gives another meaning to greenhouse gases altogether… pun intended.
1) carbon dioxide […]

As I read along about the human impact on ecosystems, I’m not really sure where or what to start with.
Human impact on ecosystems is at such a fast pace affecting everything from land, air and sea.
The past 50 years of human development, socially and economically, have tilted many of the delicate balances on this […]

The “green” benefits of electric motorcycles are just as staggering as owning an electric car.
The benefits to owning an electric motorcycle are plenty:
1) Outlay cost for a brand new one is far less than the average small car.
2) Totally silent like the electric car.
3) Very clean and very cost effective to maintain.
4) Uses zero gas, […]

Electric scooters are becoming more and more enjoyed by both adults and children alike. They are a super alternative than a gas car if it is for a quick trip to the store on a fairly “co-operative” day. To add, they reduce global warming polutants by reducing greenhouse gases - another bonus.
Top speeds on electric […]

The Columbia River and global warming is another climate change issue to be aware of, according to scientists of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change. They released a report a couple of Fridays ago noting that communities/cities that are relying on water from this water supply…

(and other large bodies of water) will “feel the […]

I recognize that this site isn’t entirely about polar bears. As time moves on there will be more.
But for now, a great link that I’ve found for polar bears…

and how their lives and habitat are affected, visit Biological Diversity.
There is a video that can also be viewed.
Enjoy.
Peace.

Now that Earthday has come and gone, was there anything you managed to change, or did you make any “New Years Earthday” goals for the coming year?
Well our goal for Earthday was to change all the bulbs in our house to fluorescent bulbs. Those are the spiral light bulbs you are starting to see everywhere. […]

Last night I was fortunate enough to see Al Gore live at his presentation in Calgary. Al Gore, global warming and polite, factual, unrelenting persistence go together like peas and carrots. Ok, he can be humorous too.
I will admit, I was overdosed with the eye-popping facts pertinent to his/our cause, in fact 2.5 hours […]

Here are some interesting earthday facts you can use around the water cooler =)
1) Senator Gaylord Nelson is the man who is the founder of Earth Day idea back in 1969. In a Seattle conference held in Sept. 1969, it was announced that come spring of 1970, a nationwide grassroots…

demonstration was going to happen […]
