Happy Earth Day!

Happy Earth Day!

Today is the 38th annual celebration of the planet we call home, and a day to step back and think about things we can do to preserve and restore our natural resources…

So that’s the official line on Earth Day, but I want to know: what do YOU think about Earth Day?

Is it a time to reflect on accomplishments?

A time to call for more action?

Or something in-between?

Send a post, let us know, then go outside and do something good for the planet.

Fueling the fire, part III

Here’s one more fuel for discussion: oil from coal.

From what I’ve read, proponents tout claims oil could be extracted from coal for much less than what gas is going for now. Opponents cite the fact that coal isn’t exactly emmission-free, and oil is oil - with the same environmental impact - regardless of where it’s from.

Read this, and share your thoughts on the “coal from oil” idea.
