The Green, The Bad and The Ugly: December 2011
http://thegreenthebadandtheugly.blogspot.com/2011_12_01_archive.html
Friday, December 9, 2011. Have Yourself A Sustainable Little Christmas. The other morning I boarded the bus to work and found my favorite seat. The bus quickly became very crowded, as it usually does, and two women parked themselves right up against me. Trying to avoid being hit by their designer handbags, I couldn't help but eavesdrop on their conversation. One woman began to tell her friend about a colleague who had started a company that sold great sustainable gifts. Talking about sustainability aroun...

The Green, The Bad and The Ugly: April 2012
http://thegreenthebadandtheugly.blogspot.com/2012_04_01_archive.html
Tuesday, April 24, 2012. Florida is full of dangers. Sting rays. Bull sharks. Republicans. Thankfully, when I was in Florida last week, I survived them all. The biggest thing I survived was Stand Up Paddle surfing. I had my first SUP lesson on the Intercoastal Waterway in Jupiter, where my friend took me for one of the greatest, coolest experiences of my life. There were things I needed to watch out for. Drifting into the middle of the Intercoastal and falling off my board were my biggest concerns. IR...

The Green, The Bad and The Ugly: March 2012
http://thegreenthebadandtheugly.blogspot.com/2012_03_01_archive.html
Thursday, March 22, 2012. I love to drink it, swim in it, bathe in it, surf in it (or wish I could surf), brush my teeth with it, clean my clothes with it, cook with it, listen to it and watch it. Maybe it's because I grew up going to the beach all the time.Cape Cod, Martha's Vineyard, New Smyrna. Or maybe it's because I have webbed toes like Ashton Kutcher and Patrick Duffy in. The Man From Atlantis. John often tells me I'm part fish despite the fact that he's grossly intrigued by my twin toes. 6 If you...

The Green, The Bad and The Ugly: August 2012
http://thegreenthebadandtheugly.blogspot.com/2012_08_01_archive.html
Tuesday, August 21, 2012. Greetings from San Francisco! This isn’t any trip to San Francisco. True, I want to see the Mission murals, eat a Mission burrito and plan a mission to Alcatraz. But my real mission – which I’ve chosen to accept – is to train with Nobel Laureate and Former Vice President of the United States, Al Gore. In conjunction with his organization, The Climate Reality Project. The climate crisis is real and we know how to solve it.”. What does that mean to me? The Climate Reality Project.

The Green, The Bad and The Ugly: July 2012
http://thegreenthebadandtheugly.blogspot.com/2012_07_01_archive.html
Thursday, July 12, 2012. As I stood in line at Key Foods waiting for my turn at the check out, the girl in front of me put her groceries on the conveyor belt. Then I watched in horror as the cashier double bagged them: two frozen dinners (double bag), a 12-pack of ginger ale – with an easy-carry handle (double bag), and the bounty to end all bounties, paper towels (double bag! This poor kid had no idea how things worked. How many people thought this? Or thought about it at all? 8220;The Surfrider Foundat...

The Green, The Bad and The Ugly: August 2013
http://thegreenthebadandtheugly.blogspot.com/2013_08_01_archive.html
Sunday, August 18, 2013. Gathered together from the cosmic reaches of the universe – here in this great hall of justice - are the most powerful forces of good ever assembled. Their mission – to fight injustice, to right that to which is wrong, and to. Rid the world of Styrofoam and plastic. As a kid, Saturdays in my house had two rituals: cartoons and grocery shopping. I haven’t received “the look” in quite a few years…until last night. I decided to activate my Wonder Twin powers and formed of an activis...

The Green, The Bad and The Ugly: February 2012
http://thegreenthebadandtheugly.blogspot.com/2012_02_01_archive.html
Monday, February 27, 2012. And The Swag Goes To. Last night ended the awards season with the grand-daddy of them all – The Oscars. The Oscars have always been my favorite awards show (probably because I want to win one). But this year, my favorite awards show was The Writers Guild of America Awards (of course I’m partial because my husband produced them). I love to get all dressed up and I got to see my friends as well as some of my favorite celebs. Every awards show gives away “The Swag Bag! But now, I ...

The Green, The Bad and The Ugly: 24 Hours of Reality
http://thegreenthebadandtheugly.blogspot.com/2012/11/24-hours-of-reality.html
Tuesday, November 13, 2012. 24 Hours of Reality. People have been asking me how I weathered Hurricane Sandy being from New York City. Part of me is beyond grateful that we only had some broken branches and a traffic light tip over. East 91st Street between 2nd and 3rd Avenues. Corner of 92nd and 2nd Avenue. And then there is the part of me that feels guilty as so many people are suffering. Some of my friends waded through waist deep water and lost power. The Green, The Bad and The Ugly. What You Can Do.
