David Suzuki Foundation:Nature Challenge

Here are 10 of the most effective ways YOU can help conserve nature and improve quality of life!

1. Reduce home energy use by 10%
2. Choose an energy-efficient home & appliances
3. Don't use pesticides
4. Eat meat-free meals one day a week
5. Buy locally grown and produced food
6. Choose a fuel-efficient vehicle
7. Walk, bike, carpool or take transit
8. Choose a home close to work or school
9. Support alternative transportation
10. Learn more and share with others

I think #1, 2, 10 will be the most challenging! =)

D.Suz is down with biking!

i saw the man, David Suzuki himself, peering his head into the gallery i work at in the university during one of our events. My friend had a fangirl moment, and we proceed to run out of the gallery to try to follow him.

I agree with all his points, but #6 is essential...no more SUVs! EVER! They signifier everything that's wrong with our culture.

this blog seemed very much like a lecture....

D.Suz had a special on TV. It was a seminar he did about our future environment..specifically the air quality...it was good. But it also made me depressed...we suck as humans.

Yes i agree with Janice (J to the anice). SUV's should be banished. You know when a tiny man (or woman) is driving an big SUV, they are compensating for something else.....

to add to D.Suz's coolness, here is a T-shirt I am seriously considering buying:
