		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve been hearing quite a bit about Black Friday lately. You can&#8217;t help it if you pay attention to just about any news source around here. People lined up days in advance, skipping their family&#8217;s Thanksgiving dinner just to get deals on whatever they&#8217;re after. All I can think is about how much people complain [...]]]></description>

You say businesses should pay their fair share of taxes or should limit their waste and emissions, they hear you saying that business is evil.

		<description><![CDATA[Anyone paying attention at all these days has heard of global warming or climate change. It&#8217;s a big deal to some, complete nonsense to those who don&#8217;t believe in it. Climate change is only a part of the problem, however. Ocean acidification is a related problem, and quite serious. So what is it? Why does [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve seen a few stories on the news lately about many types of reusable bags having a high lead content. This is an issue because the lead can rub off and contaminate your food. Not immediately, as the bags tested used materials that would not leech lead too easily. But as it wears down, maybe [...]]]></description>

If you&#8217;re lucky and live in an area with easy recycling, you can toss them into the recycle bin. If you&#8217;re really lucky, they take all types of plastic, not just #1 and #2. There&#8217;s one step that [...]]]></description>

I&#8217;m in California, and we have some really important issues on the ballot to deal with&#8230; most to say &#8220;no&#8221; to. Prop 23 is an easy no. It suspends recent environmental policies until California&#8217;s unemployment rate remains under 5% for a given length of time, a year [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[This year&#8217;s Blog Action Day&#8217;s subject is water. Specifically, the need for more clean water around the world. As a southern Californian, I have a lot of sympathy for those who don&#8217;t have water, even though we have plenty of water for our needs. We grumble about lawn watering rationing here, but that&#8217;s nothing compared [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Greenwashing is a constant problem when you go shopping for eco friendly products. So many product claims have no legal definition. Fortunately, the FTC is in the process of changing that. They&#8217;ve proposed revisions to their &#8220;Green Guides&#8221; that help marketers avoid making misleading environmental claims. Can I say about time?! These guidelines haven&#8217;t been [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Quick answer, yes, Big Oil is targeting California&#8217;s climate legislation. Proposition 23 would cause California to only enforce it&#8217;s Global Warming Solutions Act when unemployment is under 5.5% for four consecutive quarters. That doesn&#8217;t sound that bad until you understand that unemployment has only been that low three times since 1970. Worse, as the article [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The Supreme Court issued a ruling on a ban on genetically modified alfalfa seeds that has both Monsanto and environmentalists claiming a win. So who won? There&#8217;s a touch of both. But Monsanto doesn&#8217;t come out as clear as they want people to think. They still can&#8217;t have their GM alfalfa grown commercially until it&#8217;s [...]]]></description>
