Upgrade and change

Thursday, May 1st, 2008

Over the next few days I’ll be switching my web hosting to another company. There may be a few days where you can’t access the site or the blog, but I’ll be posting again next week.

Cheers,

Julie

In case of global warming…

Monday, April 28th, 2008

While I’m away, I thought I’d just link to a cartoon by Tom Toles that appeared in the Washington Post just over a year ago. Not much has changed since then, but it still made me smile a bit at human nature.

In Case Of Global Warming

I’ll be back later this week, see you then!

Green websites in Australia

Monday, April 21st, 2008

You might have noticed that I’ve added a new blogroll to the sidebar of this site, showing the Australian environmental websites I regularly read. I thought you might like to see what else is going on for greenies in Australia.

  • Greenfoot - Trina is living sustainably in Sydney, and is always up to date with green news and events
  • The Greening of Gavin - Gavin discusses the whys and hows of living a more sustainable life
  • O2 WA - Wilma runs the Perth branch of the O2 network for sustainable design, and organises the Perth Green Drinks every second month (next drinks are in May!)
  • Ockham’s Razor - Clare knows heaps about green gardening, and native flora and fauna

Other Aussie blogs I like that aren’t specifically about the environment, but do cover environmental issues:

  • Larvatus Prodeo - a politics blog with frequent posts about environmental issues in Australia
  • Cosmos magazine - science news including biodiversity, pollution, climate science and so on among the rest.

If you’ve got a favourite green blog or website, please share it with us in the comments :)

I’m off to Melbourne this week for work, so I won’t be able to respond to comments as usual. However, I’ve pre-posted a couple of entries to keep you entertained while I’m away. Have fun everyone!

Quick admin note

My apologies - for the last couple of weeks, comments have been getting stuck in the moderation queue when they should have been posted right away. And at the same time, Wordpress decided to stop mailing me when anything requires moderation!

I think it’s ok now, but if your comments don’t appear on the posts, please contact me via email and I’ll look into it.
