Posted by Siel in emeraldcity (Sunday January 27, 2008 at 10:36 am)

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

>> A Zero Waste Plan for Los Angeles. The City of L.A. is talking trash, working to develop a citywide Zero Waste Plan to turn L.A. into a zero waste city.

>> Plastic bag ban news from Oakland to China. L.A. County chickened out on a plastic bag ban, but the city of Oakland’s fighting hard to make its ban happen. Oakland passed a plastic ban last year that was supposed to go into effect last week on Jan. 18. Unfortunately, the plastic bag industry sued, delaying things.

>> New in BYO: The Mug Project. Feel like the only person toting your own to-go mug? The Mug Project’s here to give you some love. A couple guys in Jamaica Plains, Mass. started this social site for mug-toters living the bring-your-own lifestyle.

And a linky post:

>> AM Greenlist: Writing novels on public transit
