“When anybody comes over and they’re brushing their teeth, I’m like, ‘Turn off the faucet.’ You can’t leave the shower on to let it heat up. That’s unacceptable. I just get really upset. It causes a lot of arguments, actually, especially if I’m dating someone.”

The planet needs a publicist. I had this cartoon in my head a couple of years ago... There’s a woman at a desk talking to planet Earth, and she’s like, ‘I’m going to make you a star!” And it says, ‘But I’m a planet. And she’s like “No, I can tell, you’re going to be bigger than Paris and Britney. When I’m done with you, everyone’s going to know who you are!"


June 8: World Oceans Day

Whether you live along the coast or live so far inland you’ve only seen the ocean on TV, each and every one of us is connected to the ocean. World Oceans Day is an opportunity to celebrate the world’s oceans ocean and our personal connection to the sea.

After years of pressure and innovative (and sometimes strange) tactics used by thousands of activists, this year the U.N. finally declared June 8th World Oceans Day.

So why a World Oceans Day?
