I’m going to keep submitting Earth Day related stuff right up through Sunday of this week.  Please forward these links?  Gaia thanks you!

Here is a website that calculates your impact on the environment, in terms of how much Co2 you generate, according to your lifestyle, and offers practical, low-cost ways to offset the damage: Carbon Footprint.

Check out Chris Jordan Photography, where you can view “Intolerable Beauty: Portraits of American Mass Consumption,“ which includes a 5 x 10 foot mural-size photo of millions of cigarette butts.

Jordan’s most recent exhibit is “Running the Numbers: An American Self-Portrait,” which shows American culture ‘through the austere lens of statistics.’  Visually stunning.  Morally horrifying.

Here is something for the Anthropology crowd:

World’s First Tree Reconstructed: “Earth’s oldest known tree stood nearly 30 feet tall and looked like a modern palm, a new reconstruction shows.”

For animals lovers everywhere - get out the hankies!

Saved from Slaughter:

Monitored by rescue workers from The Humane Society of the United States to the ranch, Mariah and Sahara—a mother and daughter pair believed to have been together since the younger one’s birth 17 years ago—will find open pastures to roam, plenty of food and proper medical care.

Folks, we can be heroes, if we do something.  Raise Earth Day awareness!
