>> Junk mail’s un-eco effect’s the equivalent of more than nine million cars (PDF) or the emissions generated by heating nearly 13 million homes for the winter, according to a study by ForestEthics. Earlier: Get the ‘Do Not Mail’ registry started.

>> Monsanto’s trying to sell off its artificial bovine growth hormone biz. But if even Kroger’s rejecting the stuff, who’s gonna buy it? Earlier: Milk story — now with less pus.

>> SoCal could get a new desalination plant. The Coastal Commission’s given the project ago, despite protests from enviro groups that the plant will kill fishies. Next hurdle for the plant: The state Lands Commission.

>> Anal retentive hypermilers can track, share, and compare their day to day gas mileage on Fuelly. (via fimoculous)
