Clicklist: Staycation weekend

Posted by Siel in clicklist,environment (Friday March 19, 2010 at 1:03 pm)

Tired and weary from a busy week of enviro-activism? Here are green activities to enjoy at home this weekend:

>> If you didn’t win tickets to the advance screening of Discovery’s LIFE on Tuesday, you missed out on the big screen HD experience — but can still watch LIFE on the small screen this Sunday, March 21, when the 11-part series begins airing. I’m actually not a big nature channel person myself, but really enjoyed seeing the first episode. Frogs are fascinating!

>> Since green LA girl readers already tote reusable bottles, this task will require dumpster diving. Go through your naughty neighbor’s blue bin and fish out a bottled water — then send in the bottled water label to Environmental Working Group. “Our goal is to see how good (or bad) bottled water manufacturers are at sharing important water quality information with consumers,” says the eco-health nonprofit, who’ve published a bottled water scorecard from a similar study last year. For your dumpster diving trouble, you’ll be rewarded with a Shopper’s Guide to Pesticides magnet.

>> You can also watch free funny eco-documentaries online, or play addictive eco-socio-political online games.

>> Or you can get off your ass and get to some great green events happening this weekend, like the Green Lifestyle Film Festival, the LA Street Summit, LEED Platinum homes tour, and more.
