GREEN QUOTE OF THE DAY

"Why are we being forced to choose between the economy and the environment? We tend to forget that without an environment we would not have an economy, as everything we consume and I mean everything comes from our environment."

~ Franke James (contemporary artist, photographer, writer)

Green Tip: PRECYCLE!

Beijing's landfills are getting full fast! Reduce the "trash" you throw away by purchasing products with minimal packaging. Look for reusable, recyclable, and biodegrable items and remember to carry your reusable shopping bags!

On the “Spirit” of Lei Feng

Posted Sat, 2010-03-06 14:05 by Green Sensation

Taken from "A Modern Lei Feng".

March 5th is officially the day marked to celebrate Lei Feng, the Chinese soldier who was known for his selfless deeds in helping others and died a tragic death at a young age only to be venerated as a national hero when his diary was suddenly discovered. Therefore, every year on March 5th, Chinese, mainly students, are told to celebrate the spirit of Lei Feng by doing certain charitable works around their city.

YES! Happy 11th National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference (CPPCC)! ! !

And mad props to Pu Cunxin.

(Oh how I wish more of my own national leaders would exercise more PEDAL POWER)

It's so refreshing when you finally come across the (increasing) bit of good green news in The Red Republic.

Thanks to China Green News for bringing this and so much more to our attention!

You know the saying "you are what you eat"? Well, if that's true then over the course of time I've become giant greasy plate of kungpao chezi approaching 7th grade biology worm status (in terms of formaldehyde, courtesy of Tsingtao).

Yikes!

How can I be green in a world full of packaged chicken feet?
