Eco Blogs

Winter break is good for blogging (you know, during commerical breaks of the Top Model marathon). In addition to our blog (which I know you read avidly, right?), you might want to check out these blogs for some other perspectives:

1. Dot Earth: this blog is a New York Times blog about global warming. "In Dot Earth, reporter Andrew C. Revkin examines efforts to balance human affairs with the planet’s limits. Supported in part by a John Simon Guggenheim Fellowship, Mr. Revkin tracks relevant news from suburbia to Siberia, and conducts an interactive exploration of trends and ideas with readers and experts."
2. RealClimate: this is basically a blog (I don't think they explicitly call it one, but hey) run by scientists. "RealClimate is a commentary site on climate science by working climate scientists for the interested public and journalists. We aim to provide a quick response to developing stories and provide the context sometimes missing in mainstream commentary. The discussion here is restricted to scientific topics and will not get involved in any political or economic implications of the science."
   
3. No Impact Man: this blog is a guy's record of a project begun in November, 2006. New York City resident No Impact Man (plus his wife, toddler, and dog) seek to have no net impact on the environment during their one-year experiment. I guess it's still going because he's still updating the blog...
4. Save Your Trash: "Because there is no such thing as away..." I found out about this story a few days ago on the news. Basically, this guy from Berkeley (Ari Derfel) saved ALL of his trash for a year. Here's the original news article about it (he also has some links to news videos about the project on his blog).
