Green Teens: Taking Climate Change by Storm!

rdbrofft — Tue, 10 Jun 2008 14:49:05 -0500

There is a plethora of information about global warming available on the Internet, television, and other popular media sources. These forms of communication primarily target two main audiences: educated adults and elementary school children. There is a gap in the amount of climate change information available to junior high and high school-aged students. While it is important to target younger children while they are still forming their values and worldviews, environmental education is ineffective if it is not continuous throughout other levels of schooling.

CGG caught up with Ben Jelen on his way to do a Free Green concert on Earth Day in NYC at a Replay store. Ben's a total cutie and stopped to answer a few questions:

CGG: Why earth day? Why is this your big issue?

Ben: It's a big issue because our planet is everything.

CGG: What kinds of things do you do?

Ben: I bike everywhere, recycle EVERYTHING at home and on tour. I also tour in a biodeisel bus. I wish I could compost more, but I live in Brooklyn and it's too difficult.

Al Gore: 15 Ways to Avert Climate Change

vmartir — Wed, 09 Apr 2008 13:50:14 -0500

With the same humor and humanity he exuded in An Inconvenient Truth, Al Gore spells out 15 ways we can address climate change, from buying a hybrid car to inventing a hotter brand name for global warming. First, though, comes a hilarious set of stories from The New Gore, who turns out to be a stand-up comedian. The former Vice President has plenty of joke material, and he's funnier than you've ever seen him.

Al Gores's New Thinking on the Climate Crisis

vmartir — Wed, 09 Apr 2008 13:41:48 -0500

In Al Gore's brand-new slideshow (premiering exclusively on TED.com), he presents evidence that the pace of climate change may be even worse than scientists were recently predicting, and challenges us to act with a sense of "generational mission" -- the kind of feeling that brought forth the civil rights movement -- to set it right.

Planet Magazine deals with current issues

CelebsGoneGood — Tue, 08 Apr 2008 13:00:26 -0500

Planet is a new mag jam packed with articles and photographs dealing with global issues. Brady Corbet, who had a recurring role on 24, is on the cover stretched out in the backseat of a car. The issue features articles about soft power design and vertical farming (literally an apartment-style building with farms one on top of the other). The magazine also addresses growing pressure to boycott the Olympics as a protest to China's economic relationship with Sudan.
