Punk the Skunk!

Nobody relishes the idea of being sprayed by a skunk, and if you own a dog punks are certainly on your list of things to be avoided for my dog alongside porcupines! (I used to live in the country with two dogs!) Skunks often live in urban centers and are therefore one of the species that is cool for kids to study, since they might get to see one! When it comes to teaching young kids, K-5, I am a huge proponent of learning about our backyards, about what lives close to us, or what is happening i… Continue

Getting Beyond the Bed Bath And Beyond Coupon

Taken from www.ConsumerChange.com Blog Last week I wrote about the importance of advocacy, so I feel a little ashamed today to write about where, so far, my advocacy has failed. I have been trying to get Bed Bath and Beyond to change their coupon mailing policy. Their postcard coupons are 5.5” by 11” – about six times bigger than typical coupons in a newspaper or magazine. They do not state the amount of post consumer recycled content… Continue

I am a toucan and a toucan can be....

Well, for absolutely no reason other than it popped into my head, today’s Blog is about toucans! My Toucan song is one of my favorites, and I discovered a while back that someone had used it for their video on Youtube and that tickled me no end! The Toucan song was one of the first songs that I wrote, back in the early 90’s, when I set out to teach kids about ecology and sustainability. I’d heard a horrific story from a friend who was a pet store-owner, about toucans being smuggled into Canada i… Continue

The Importance of Advocacy

Taken from the Consumer Change Blog Last weekend I attended a brunch given by Conexions, a Bay Area non-profit whose mission is to advance regenerative social, ecological, and business practices that enable Earth to thrive. The Mayor of Palo Alto, Peter Drekmeier, was the host. I have long admired Palo Alto city’s environmental policies. Their Palo Alto Green program allows residents to use power from 100% renewable so… Continue

Turn it Off!

With the countdown to the United Nations Conference on Climate Change in Copenhagen, some teachers might be looking for materials to use in class, so I thought I would make today’s Blog about conserving energy and water. I spend half of my time working in Florida, where I develop educational programs for elementary school children. Last year, I developed a program called Turn it Off! As usual, I wrote a song to go with the program, since I find that a fun concert always kicks things off on a hi… Continue

Principles of combating Global Climate Change using Integrated Management Inputs with reference to Pedogenic Spectrum

Abstract Global climate change can not be considered in isolation. It is an issue to be discussed on integrated basis taking different spectrum into consideration. Pedogenic spectrum is one to be addressed precisely through anthropogenic intervention. Efforts are made to consider six spectrums by integration of all physical, chemical, nuclear, anthropogenic, biological and pedogenic attributes together. Anthropogenic interactions with pedogenic environment need to be reviewed and updated system… Continue

Noah's Bagels: Tackling Climate Change The Second Time Around?

Taken from my Blog at www.consumerchange.com If the biblical story is to be believed, Noah and his family saved the human race and all the animal species from extinction during the Great Flood. Maybe that is why Noah’s Bagels is not taking climate change so seriously the second time around? During a lunchtime visit to Noah’s Bagels last week, I was surprised firstly when the person taking the order wrote down the order on a 2 sheet order form; then h… Continue
