Unbridled insanity

Our family has been trying to live a greener lifestyle for more than 2 years now. We have switched to cloth grocery bags (which I absolutely love!), we stepped up our curb side recycling efforts, we use refillable personal water bottles, we grow an organic garden, we freecycle to keep things from landfills and we recently purchased a rain barrel. While we could do much better, we think that if every family just did a little, we could see a huge change in our global warming problems.

Internews - Press Release - Internews Launches Earth Journalism Awards for Climate Change [Scam Promoting]

(April 22, 2009) The global media assistance organisation Internews today announced the Earth Journalism Awards for Climate Change Reporting at a round table on communication at the G8 Environment Ministers’ Meeting in Siracusa, Italy. Designed to increase and improve media coverage of climate change around the world, the competition will culminate with a ceremony at the pivotal United Nations Climate Change Conference (COP15) in Copenhagen this December.

Also featured in remarks by Mary Robinson, former President of Ireland, in her Earth Day speech at the World Bank in Washington, D.C., the Earth Journalism Awards will honor journalists in all media formats and from different global regions who produce the best climate change stories this year. Winners will be selected by expert international juries and invited to attend and cover the Copenhagen Conference, where they will receive their awards in a high profile ceremony on the eve of the political negotiations.

I nominate Anthony Watts.
