Latest from Emerald City, my enviro-blog at LAtimes.com

>> L.A. to buy only 100% post-consumer recycled copy paper. Nine other big California cities and counties have pledged the same: Berkeley, Pasadena, Sacramento, San Diego, San Francisco, San Jose, Santa Barbara, Santa Monica, and the County of Marin.

>> Green Guide magazine hits the stands. National Geographic’s now out to green the average magazine reader. Today, National Geographic Green Guide magazine hit newsstands around the country, sporting this subhead: “The Resource for Consuming Wisely.”

>> The Bey’s Garden Day Spa: Intensely relaxing organic facials. After all the research on eco-friendly facials, I had to treat myself to one. So yesterday, I biked over to get pampered, eco-style, at The Bey’s Garden Day Spa & Aromatherapy Boutique.

>> Strawberry-spinach-arugula farmers market salad, realized. I managed to get all the ingredients for the salad from the farmers market — sans the cheese, because I’m lactose intolerant.

>> Help me help you eat locally. Locavorians: What do you need to make your dining life easier? That’s what James MacKinnon and Alisa Smith, the two people who started the whole 100-mile diet hoopla, want to know.

And a few linky posts:

>> A.M. Greenlist: Saving gas money
>> A.M. Greenlist: But arson releases greenhouse gases ….
