...some music, some fun, and some, you know, beverages” to the Housing Day festivities.“It’s fantastic being a gorilla,” he said. “It almost makes me feel bad for the trees and the fish when you’re a gorilla, you know.”But the other House mascots would not let the Gorilla have the last word.The Currier Tree responded by saying, “there’s nothing you can be better than a tall oak tree. Mather’s mascot...
...concerned, we were replacing an environmentally superior system: I put food in the garbage disposal, it went out to the ocean, fish ate it, and I ate the fish and put the uneaten fish bits right back into the disposal--a perfect, waste-free circle of life. Cassandra didn't see it that way. She wanted the thrill of watching food decompose. I wondered if we could do something else for the planet instead: save trees by ordering fewer fashion magazines, protect cows by massively reducing our purchases of boots and handbags, conserve energy by not watching Gossip Girl...
...secret that the earth's oceans are being dangerously overfished. Ninety percent of large predatory fish have vanished, and 30% of all fish stocks have collapsed. Chantecaille, a cosmetics company known for its refined formulations using natural ingredients, has introduced the Protected Paradise compacts for face (left, $90) and eyes to not only educate consumers but also help reverse the impact of overfishing.

Even the more restrained Jones ended his Horton with a twist on a twist of John Philip Sousa's "Stars and Stripes Forever." The cast sings, "Be kind to your small-person friends," a variation...
...still, warm waters of the Gulf, they in turn feed excess growth of algae. When algae dies and decomposes, the process sucks much of the oxygen out of the water. A sea without oxygen is little different from the surface of the moon - nothing can live there. Fish and other sea life flee, or suffocate. That's the Gulf's dead zone, and last year it reached 7,915 sq. mi (20,500 sq. km) - nearly the size of the New Jersey. Worse, the dead zone is getting bigger, with last year's bloom the third largest in history...
