I am sure you’ve heard about the people who do not believe that global warming is real. The fact is that there are a lot of people who are not convinced enough that going green is a good idea. These people usually have arguments that keep them from “crossing over.” Let’s do [...]
Previously we asked you what your carbon footprint was. Well as we’re bloggers, maybe we should start with the very activity that we are doing at this minute- blogging!
J. Angelo Racoma, a member of our team at Splashpress Media, wrote on one of our sister sites about this very topic- giving 10 Ways To Reduce [...]
With housing prices slumping all over the world, Gerd Niemoeller’s invention, The Universal World House, couldn’t have come at a better time.

I am supposed to be camping in this isolated island right now. I had been planning this weekend trip with friends for about a month and it really is a pity that I had to pass out on the trip. That does not mean that I will not go camping again in the [...]
