Many of you have probably heard of the Step It Up movement. Many others of you probably have not. The fact is, whether you like it or not, global warming is a real and serious threat to the survival of life as we know it on our fair planet (if you'll pardon my cliche there).

The specific link I am sharing shows an event on the University of Illinois campus in Champaign-Urbana. From this link, you can explore to find events going on in your area. If there is no event near you, I encourage you to find a way to make one, even though it's rather short notice, and notify your friends, relatives, and neighbors of all the ways they can participate.

Plastic bags are not the biggest single issue out there, and no expert on global warming would suggest solutions rest wholly with decisions made by individual consumers. On the other hand, it is estimated that the United States goes through 100 billion plastic bags a year, which take an estimated 12 million barrels of oil to produce and last almost forever. And if individual decisions cant solve the problem, the wrong ones can certainly compound it.Plastic bags are not the biggest single issue out there, and no expert on global... more
