What a clever name for a collection of two to four minute long "microdocs" that each feature one aspect of sustainability.

I liked this cartoon by High Moon over at Japan for Sustainability. I never thought about it quite this way before. Ranking the 3 Rs in order of importance, they give Reduce the first place, followed by Reuse and a third place for Recycle. Or should they all rank the same?

JFS also has a cute website for kids, called Create Your Future. Do have a look!...

The first important decision of many young adults' lives – where to apply to college -- was once made largely in the dark. Up until recently, widely accessible sources of information on colleges came largely from the schools themselves, along with a handful of annual magazine guides that provide cold numeric rankings and limited profiles.

Earlier this month, the Sustainable Endowments Institute released a new interactive report card that indicated the sustainability trends at 300 leading schools including Columbia, Harvard and Stanford.

During a speech by Kenny Ausubel at Bioneers, the future of the conference was discussed, including ways to spread the word about environmental education.
