That there my friends is why I am unable to "blog" as much as I would like.  Super Greeny feels the same way regarding her blog: Times Like These - and i'm not even going to get into her list of activities on a daily basis, we would be here all day. 

That is why we have "decided" (actually I kind of just asked her because she is much better at writing informative pieces) to share duties here on Let's Save the Darn Planet! (we are now rated PG-13 as well).  And I actually think she agreed.  Awesome news huh!?

 

Sorry, had to throw one more "EFF" in there.  Since we both want fame and glory and blog awesomeness and she is a much better orator and picture taker than I, this is obviously the greatest decision - pretty much of all time. 

So please welcome Super Greeny, and prepare to be blow away.  You'll think twice the next time you eat fast food. 

Keep it epic.    

Black and Gold...and Green

Cool stuff.  Dahn Tahn Pittsburgh is getting a "green" roof.

The roof will help keep heating/cooling costs down for the building and will hold and filter storm water. 

This is the first building of its kind that is city owned, following the likes of Pitt and Carnegie Mellon who both have similar structures and designs. 

How cool would it be to look down on the city from Mt. Washington and see trees/shrubs/flowers on top of all of the buildings?  Super cool. 

Also, there was legislation passed to "require contractors involved in city-subsidized developments to operate air-friendly vehicles and reduce water runoff through the use of green roofs, man-made wetlands and rain gardens."

Thirdly, Pittsburgh is this year's North American Host for World Environment Day.  Head over to the site to see the calendar of events - unless you're canoing this weekend. 

Take it easy yo.
