      Community "swaps" provide the perfect opportunity to find new homes for things you no longer need. By taking home items that you can use, you are also helping to prevent waste from production, packaging and transportation required to get new things.

      The Office of Recycling Outreach and Education coordinates the Stop 'N' Swap in communities where they are working to improve recycling in order to facilitate waste prevention and material reuse.

  • Frank Capra - The First Global Frank Capra - The First Global Warming Video

    • From: aband
    • Description:

      For FIFTY YEARS scientists have known about global warming. This exerpt is from the well known educational documentary "Unchained Goddess" produced by Frank Capra for Bell Labs for their television program "The Bell Telephone Hour." It was so well made, that it went on to live a continued life in middle school science classrooms across the nation for decades.

      Nearly half a century before Al Gore's "Inconvenient Truth," this film was made. But what does it reveal? That our scientists have known for over two generations about this danger, but our politicians and citizenry have chosen to ignore the dangerous implications of this fact until it really is too late to avoid the preventable consequences.

      Perhaps we deserve our fate.

  • The Most Terrifying Video You' The Most Terrifying Video You'll Ever See

    • From: aband
    • Description:

      It's called The Most Terrifying Video You'll Ever See, and it's taking the web by storm. Essentially, it's little more than a high school science teacher named Greg Craven, set up in his home with a whiteboard and a felt-tipped marker.

      But he's made the case to over 4 million viewers on multiple websites that An Inconvenient Truth simply didn't go far enough. And that's impressive. Particularly when you consider the fact that he's done it without the aid of anything more high tech than his YouTube account.

      To pull it off took him months of living on take-out and energy drinks while his wife and two daughters moved out for weeks at a time as he filmed away back at home, working hard on his 44-part series. Not surprisingly, all the hard-livin' took it's toll, ending him up in the emergency room with chest pains as a result of it.

      And he's found his share of critics among the ostrich-crowd as well... With almost 7000 negative comments in return for his efforts. All of which, it seems, served to help him refine what he had to say as he patched the holes in his original video with a follow-up called "How It All Ends".

      As Craven himself puts it,

      This is not just another environmental issue. This may eat our lunch. This is fundamentally different because in a complex system like the climate, there may be tipping points where irreversible damage is done, but you don't see it until it's too late to do something about it. That's what really has motivated me.

      Nope, you can't keep a high school teacher down, no matter how hard you try... So give it a look, the clocks tickin'!

  • Gas Drilling Lobby Day in Alba Gas Drilling Lobby Day in Albany (1.25.10)

    • From: nrdcnewyork
    • Description:
      On January 25, environmental activists and concerned citizens from across New York State gathered in Albany to rally and speak with legislators about the dangers of natural gas drilling in the Marcellus Shale. Gas drilling companies plan to use a controversial technique called hydraulic fracturing to extract natural gas trapped in the Marcellus Shale. Hydraulic fracturing, or “fracking,” involves pumping millions of gallons of water and toxic chemicals at high pressure into each well, and it poses a serious threat to our water, air, and ecosystems in the Marcellus region. The rally and lobby day were both a huge success and drew over 600 people from across New York State.

  • Woody Tasch: Slow Money Princi Woody Tasch: Slow Money Principles for a Healthy Food System

    • From: aband
    • Description:
      "The Slow Money Principles are the path to a new, healthy food system. Sign them and be counted!"  "I signed the Principles.  Hope you do, too.  Together, we are building a strong, new voice for the wisdom of bringing our money home to build sustainable communities. Judy Wicks, Chair/co-founder, Business Alliance for Local Living Economies. In order to enhance food security, food safety and food access; improve nutrition and health; promote cultural, ecological and economic diversity; and accelerate the transition from an economy based on extraction and consumption to an economy based on preservation and restoration, we do hereby affirm the following Principles: I. We must bring money back down to earth. II. There is such a thing as money that is too fast, companies that are too big, finance that is too complex.  Therefore, we must slow our money down -- not all of it, of course, but enough to matter.   III. The 20th Century was the era of Buy Low/Sell High and Wealth Now/Philanthropy Later—what one venture capitalist called “the largest legal accumulation of wealth in history.”  The 21st Century will be the era of nurture capital, built around principles of carrying capacity, care of the commons, sense of place and non-violence.  IV. We must learn to invest as if food, farms and fertility mattered.  We must connect investors to the places where they live, creating vital relationships and new sources of capital for small food enterprises. V. Let us celebrate the new generation of entrepreneurs, consumers and investors who are showing the way from Making A Killing to Making a Living. VI. Paul Newman said, "I just happen to think that in life we need to be a little like the farmer who puts back into the soil what he takes out." Recognizing the wisdom of these words, let us begin rebuilding our economy from the ground up, asking:  What would the world be like if we invested 50% of our assets within 50 miles of where we live?  What if there were a new generation of companies that gave away 50% of their profits?  What if there were 50% more organic matter in our soil 50 years from now? Sign these Principles and be counted as part of the emerging network that's working to improve the health of local food systems and the economy. These Principles are a living document, a beginning, a reflection of the vision that is unfolding in communities around the country. Thank you. Please Pass The Principles On to your friends. And if you want to do more, consider becoming a member of the Slow Money Alliance. Join folks like George Siemon, CEO of Organic Valley and Jim Cochran, the first organic strawberry grower in California, and Eliot Coleman, one of the nation's top organic farmers, and Joan Gussow, one of the pioneers of nutrition and ecology, working together to build support for this beautiful movement.

      Wildlife and environmental conservation and preservation are challenges that touch all of us. This was the focus of John and Yoke DiGiorgio when they first approached the Narrowsburg community leaders in 2001 with the idea to establish EagleFest. Combining entertainment and education for all attending, the award winning Narrowsburg NY "EagleFest" is an event for everyone to be proud of! Successful in bringing local residents and out-of-town visitors of all ages to the day's multi-faceted series of activities, it brings much deserved attention to the natural resources that enrich our lives in the Delaware River Valley region.

      Located along the Delaware River in Sullivan County, New York, Narrowsburg has been named the Eagle Capital of New York. This is because, in addition to increasingly more bald eagles that make the Upper Delaware Region their permanent home, eagles from up north migrate here each winter for the open water, abundant food supply and protected habitate.

      STAY TUNED: The Delaware Valley Eagle Alliance will be announcing a new series of programs to take place throughout the year with a tentative Spring/Summer 2009 kick off date. Details will be released as they are confirmed.

      In its efforts to increase awareness and understanding, and to promote the conservation of our wildlife and the natural environment, the Delaware Valley Eagle Alliance is tireless in its efforts to raise public awareness through diverse publications, educational programs, and events. The Alliance believes that knowledge is the key to changing attitudes toward conservation and our vital natural resources, and its work reflects this. It is committed to these labors because it is rooted in the belief that the preservation and stewardship of our natural world is essential to the continued growth, development and prosperity of all life that exists on Earth.

On November 10, 2009, the Department of Environmental Conservation hosted its first and only public hearing in NYC on the draft report evaluating the potential risks associated with extracting natural gas from the Marcellus Shale. The proposed drilling could be the most significant new industrial activity in New York in a generation and threatens to contaminate the New York City watershed, one of the purest, unfiltered water supplies in the nation.

      Hydrofracking Friction at DEC's Public Comment Session (VIDEO)

      November 18, 2009
       
      CORNING --- As New York looks toward legalizing horizontal gas drilling in the Marcellus Shale, people in the Southern Tier community are educating themselves and speaking up.
           There are strong opinions on all sides of the controversy and Wednesday night people had a chance to stand up for what they think is right.    
           More than 500 people came out to the fourth and final public comment session on the Department of Environmental Conservation�s draft Supplemental Generic Environmental Impact Statement, or SGEIS, that was released in September.
           Not only did residents come out to protest or support hydrofracturing in New York State, but they're also talking about the DEC�s report.
           �This document is inaccurate,� said Wes Gillingham of Livingston Manor. �There are so many flaws.�
           Chris Tate of Hector agrees.
           �It considers the impact of one well and that is just ridiculous they want to put thousands and thousands of wells in New York,� he added.
           Some people attacked the DEC for what they say are huge gaps in its draft Environmental Impact Statement.
           Where will the wastewater go? What about increased traffic and air pollution?
           Residents are asking the DEC to slow down and answer those questions.
           �There�s a lot of �mays,� �we should do this,� �we could do this,�� Gillingham said. � We need a definite set of rules and regulations and that's not what this document is doing.�
           But others disagree.
           Brad Gill, Executive Director of the Independent Oil and Gas Association of New York, says his company has reviewed the DEC�s Statement and it actually puts more regulations on the industry.
           �We know for sure that it is extremely comprehensive, and in some cases does concern us, but industry will rise to the occasion.�
           Gill says there are a lot more guidelines in this statement than in the one the gas drilling industry has been following since the 1990's.
           Those guidelines, he says, keep drilling safe.
           Some people just aren't convinced.
           �We have observational data from every region in country where they have done this and it just poisons the water table,� Tate said.
           �When our water is at risk, that is our lifeblood in New York State, it's the backbone of Upstate New York, of our economy, of our quality of life, of who we are as New Yorkers and we cannot put that at risk,� said Katherine Nadeau with Environmental Advocates of New York.
           Paul D�Amato, a DEC Regional Director, could not comment on the public's concerns because of legal parameters, but did tell us the plans for the months ahead.
           �These comments are assisting us in finalizing that document by making sure we�ve looked at everything and we�ve looked at it thoroughly,� he said.
           The Environmental Protection Agency is studying the affects of hydraulic fracturing right now.
           Wednesday night, residents asked the DEC to wait for those results before finalizing its draft Environmental Impact Statement.

      -----------------------
      Quite simple when you have finished filling up count to ten and twist , this way the fuel left in the nozzle will go in the tank and not on the ground.......... over a year you could save a few litres in fuel, save money save and save the environment too by not spilling the fuel on the ground.
      If the whole world did this we could all save millions of gallons!
