New feature – News of the Green

There are so many links out there pertaining to the greener life and sustainability that I thought I’d create a new feature in which I share what I’ve found recently. I couldn’t possibly write about all of them in any depth, but I would still like to share with you. Ergo, a list it is.

To be honest, I almost called this the “Green Link Roundup” but then I realized that would mean naming the feature after a toxic herbicide commonly used to kill weeds. Maybe not the best association.

Anyway, without further ado, here is today’s News of the Green:
