DoSomething.org’s Don’t Be Trashy Campaign
When you hear the phrase “Don’t be trashy” you’re probably thinking more along the lines of “Don’t be a hot mess” or “Don’t be slutty.” While keeping it classy and not trashy is certainly a good motto to live by, try thinking about it in the more literal sense.
What Is Your College Campus Doing to Reduce its Carbon Footprint?
Between the electricity, food, water, and everything else college students use and toss, colleges waste a lot.

Universities Do Their Part to Go Green
With Earth Day coming up (cue the Al Gore/whales/rainbows/wind technology montage) I took it upon myself to make a few Green changes in my life.

Do You Suffer From Green Stress?
For the past few months I’ve been talking your ear off about why the earth is in trouble and how you can go green to save our environment. And while it’s great to do whatever you can to protect the planet, there is such a thing as caring a little too much.

The Know: Be Kind To Mother Earth… And Your Body
Did you know that those white plastic bags currently housing beer cans and so-dirty-and-covered-in-dust-bunnies-that-they-can’t-be-salvaged beer pong balls take a thousand years to biodegrade, if ever? Didn’t think so.
Have an Eco-Friendly Winter
Winter is one of my favorite seasons. Even though I live in snowless California, I still love cozying up at home during the cold winter months.

You Can Recycle More Than Just Beer Cans
We live in a world of disposable everything. Cups, plastic bags, razors, boyfriends; you name it, you can find it in a disposable form.

Smart, Savvy, and Sustainable Shopping
As you may have gathered from my previous articles, I am a shopaholic. Even if I have no money, I can’t help but scour the internet for deals at the online sample sales (seriously, check out Ideeli, it’s amazing). And even though I can’t always buy sustainable products, I still try to buy in sustainable ways.
