Greening is what happens when life returns. Like a tree, I’m stretching up to feel the sun. Won’t you join me in greening day by day?
I have a long-time interest in making my life and work reflect a passion to do right by the earth and all its creatures. I’ve held a variety of green jobs, both public and private sector, but more importantly, I just love our world and want to protect it.
I hope to share the lessons I’m learning about trying to live a green life, because everything is connected and we can’t ignore the world that supports and sustains us.
A few other things about me: I have a B.S. in Environmental Science; I like to read, write, hike, cook and do yoga. I especially like poetry and chocolate. I also like blog comments, so feel free to send some my way.
Hi Colleen!
We see that you added Ecollo to your blogroll. Thanks, we do appreciate it!
We’re just wondering if you’d like us to add a text link to your blog to our Ecollo Friends section on the site.
Thanks again!

Didn’t know if you’ve seen this yet, but a new report has come out saying millions of birds, particularly migratory birds, will be killed by tar sands development in Canada. It’s already in close to 50 papers and is becoming quite a big deal. Here’s an article from CBC:

Report page with link to report:

There’s also a video on YouTube talking about the huge impact the tar sands has on birds, mostly from an interview with Dr. Jeff Wells:
