This weekend the link is titled round-up because my beloved wyoming cowbows are going to try to corral and rope the texas longhorns. The Moutain west has had good luck against the big 12 so far this season, maybe wyoming can keep it up!!! Enjoy the links
Financial Sustainability:
- While the article doesnt specifically mention financial sustainability, the 3 things the Debt Ninja mentions are unsustainable habits for your pocketbook. He calls them “Debt Douchisms“.
- Great post on how to simplify your financial life @ man vs debt. Remember, typically the most simple thing is also the most sustainable. Props to him for mentioning online bill pay, direct deposit, eliminating junk mail & useless free subscriptions and Do-it-yourself projects.
Conservation/ Preservation :
- Article on the Wilderness Conservation Act @ the daily green. I am a fan of this article and this act, and enjoy conservation to it’s fullest. Think of what would have happened if the people who lived in your area before you destroyed something that you hold dear that is protected by government in some form. Yellowstone, Yosemite Parks would not exist in their current form if not for conservation.
- European Union starts the ban on incandescent bulbs at the beginning of September. Do you think it will have the intended effect?
Sustainability:
- A great debate @ build2sustain on the difference between Green and sustainability I had been considering doing this, and I think i’ll work on a post like this for the future. There is some great stuff in the comments.
- St Croix Falls, WI on trails and sustainability. The city has realized that their surroundings from the essence of the community. This is the first i’ve heard of the ice-age trail. I’d love to give it a go.
