Man-made pollution is spreading a growing number of suffocating dead zones across the world's seas with disastrous consequences for marine life, scientists have warned.

 Hey Lagunans, I've just been mulling over some rather academic stuff, and I thought I would share. Hopefully it'll get you all thinking and writing and sharing your comments.

 HEY!  thanks to all for keeping this much waste out of our oceans! Take a look at the awesome haul that Chip and Zero Trash Laguna are making possible:

Well, we all knew it was a little bit weird when we saw ripe strawberries in December...but STRAWBERRIES IN DECEMBER! thats awesome. Of course, we don't think about it too much anymore and the environment is paying the price.

Wow, the Science Guy is really making it happen!!! Check out the whole conversation here.

What do you think about this interesting and thought-provoking blog? What do you think about Virtual Water, www.waterfootprint.org?  

This blog rightly points out the eco-predicament that we find ourselves in. How do we respond? 

THOUGH a consumer may not be able to tell the difference, a striking red and blue Thomas the Tank Engine made in Wisconsin is not the same as one manufactured in China — the paint on the Chinese twin may contain dangerous levels of lead. In the same way, a plump red tomato from Florida is often not the same as one grown in Mexico.

Hi there, I've been living in London for the past year and I've been really amazed about the level of attention that the government is giving the issue of climate change here. I'd say there are probably fewer environmental groups, definitely less hardcore activists, yet the government seems to be listening.

 The Santa Monica City Council voted in favor of a ban on plastic grocery bags and instructed the City Attorney to look into the drafting of an ordinance enforcing the ban. The proposed ordinance would ban some bags and charge for the use of others.

Way to go SoCal. Laguna Beach next??
