Come From Away

I found this site with a bunch of videos that are very funny. They are all on YouTube. Here are a couple of samples

Some one “Vanessa” decided to “greenify” her life. She describes her web site and explains what she did as follows:

Welcome to Green as a Thistle. My name is Vanessa, I’m a journalist at the National Post, based in Toronto. When I saw the documentary An Inconven— no, just kidding. Now that organic is the new bl— OK, no, seriously now. In short, this blog began somewhere between dissing Stéphane Dion’s dog (named Kyoto) and finding myself amongst a group of eco-hipsters drinking hemp beer at an anti-styrofoam party. I decided to take on a bit of a challenge: Spend each day, for an entire calendar year, doing one thing that betters the environment. The idea is that everything I do, I keep doing (so if I switch brands, it’s a permanent switch; if I turn down my thermostat, I keep it down), so that by day 365, I’ll be living as green a lifestyle as it gets. I hope, in the end, this proves that being an environmentalist doesn’t necessarily have to require massive change, compromise or Greenpeace levels of dedication — it can be simple, and inspiring.

You can check out her blog at GreenAsAThisle.com. It’s an interesting read.
