Energy Sites #2

At the request of a number of people, I posted Energy Sites #1 as time permitted.

Here are some additional resources that might be of interest, available with free email subscriptions:

Planet Ark offers a great recap of worldwide environmental information, as does The Daily Green.
.
Defenders of Wildlife offers commentary on our proud sportsmanlike heritage supported by the Republican VP candidate (my words, not theirs):

.

The Sierra Club is widely known, but if you're not a recent friend, it's worth reacquainting. They offer a wide variety of environmental information, including the outgoing Administration efforts to destroy the Endangered Species Act and green energy information.

New American Dream commented:

Did you know that making bottles to meet Americans’ demand for bottled water requires more than 1.5 million barrels of oil annually, enough to fuel some 100,000 cars for a year?

.

With gas prices so high (though bottled water is even more expensive at up to $6 a gallon*), why pour oil and money down the drain when you can get your own reusable bottle and fill'er up at home?

.
The current energy crunch illustrates the importance of conserving all our natural resources, yet for each gallon of water that is bottled, an additional two gallons of water are used in processing. It’s time to take a real stand and pledge to Break Your Bottled Water Habit for good. So far over 3,900 of you have pledged to give up bottled water for a year, reducing 159,936 pounds of carbon emissions in the process. We can do better than that. Take the pledge, encourage your friends to do the same, and reduce your carbon footprint by 40.8 pounds this year for each person.** Imagine if 20,000 of you make that same pledge.
