Big News!
OK, I mentioned last week that there was more than one reason that my blog took a back seat for a few weeks in December. Yes, it was the holidays, and yes, I was sick, so those were two pretty big reasons. But I was also hard at work on a number of eco-savvy projects that I’m eager to tell you about.
First, I was finishing up a new book, The Everything Green Baby Book, which will be released later this year as part of The Everything Book Series. I was also approving the cover art and final edits for The Green Teen: The Eco-Friendly Teen’s Guide to Saving the Planet, which will be released this May.
I’m ridicuolously excited about both books. It was so exciting and encouraging to research and write about going green for these two books and I’m very pleased with how they turned out. More details to come as the release dates approach.
And as if that weren’t enough to fill my plate, I also started blogging over at a new site called MNN (Mother Nature Network.) This site is an awesome new resource for folks (like me) who want the latest info on going green. My blog, the Family Blog, is for anyone with a family…moms, dads, kids, tees, grandparents, cousins…you get the idea.
So there you go. That’s why things were a little crazy in December. Thanks so much for your patience and I look forward to catching up with you all in 2009!!
congrats on achieving so many wonderful goals!
AWESOME!!!!! I can’t wait to read the green teen and I know Trendy Diva is anxiously waiting too
On my way to go check out Mother Nature Network in a second.

Many thanks to GREEN PARENT for speaking out loudly, clearly and often. Millions of voices are needed now more than ever before to support your efforts.
A jeremiad follows concerning wasting time and keeping silent while woefully inadequate leaders of the human community promulgate policies and initiate large-scale corporate activities that recklessly overheat and relentlessly ravage Earth and its environs.
My not-so-great generation of elders will likely be remembered as the perpetrators of the most perverse, self-serving silence in human history. No other generation has taken so much from this good Earth, threatened the very future of its own children and given so little of themselves to preserve life for coming generations. Photographs of us will disclose both our corpulence and hollowness.
Although the disclosure of truth is unsettling, hiding the truth from the human community could be a monstrous example of human-driven foolery, one that could soon lead to a colossal ecological wreckage.
To suppress the truth by conscientiously substituting whatsoever could somehow be true with willful silence is tantamount to the commission of a pernicious lie.
A widely shared and consensually validated determination among people with knowledge to maintain their silence, when remaining silent betrays intellectual honesty, conceals the truth and thwarts courageous action, is the most dangerous of all global threats to the family of humanity, life as we know it and the preservation of Earth as a fit place for human habitation.
From this perspective, perhaps we can begin to apprehend the actual, most formidable enemy of future human wellbeing and environmental health.
