>> For eco-couture fashion: The Green Carpet Challenge. Colin Firth’s wife Livia Firth is documenting her effort to wear only green-minded couture as she accompanies her husband during the awards season. To the Golden Globes, she wore a re-purposed Christiana Couture wedding dress, accented with a simple black velvet ribbon.

>> For anti-plastic activism on the water: 5 Gyres. If plastic soaks up DDT, and fish eat plastic, and I eat fish… what’ll happen to me? That’s what the people behind 5 Gyres are trying to find out as they sail across the Atlantic, blogging their findings. Read my post at FilterForGood to find out more.

>> For cyclists with wanderlust: Path Less Pedaled. Remember Russ Roca, L.A.’s bicycling photographer? He’s in L.A. no longer, because he and Laura Crawford have sold off pretty much everything they own to take “an extended bike tour throughout the US and beyond – with the goal of connecting with and collecting the stories of people who followed a calling to live their lives in unique ways.” The two appear to be eating good food in the Tucson area right now. Ride along virtually! Earlier: Radical uncluttering: Getting rid of stuff in search of new adventures.
