Chicago goes green this Christmas with smaller, single tree
2009-11-04 04:58:00 Do you use energy-safe Christmas decorations? For the first time since 1955, the city of Chicago will be using one single Christmas tree instead of 113 small trees stacked up to 90 feet high, according to WGN News. The small tree was donated by the Weivoda Family in Palos Heights, and I support Chicago's decision to be more economical with our city tax dollars. Chicago's 2009 Christmas tannenbaum tree is going to be dedicated with 7,000 energy-saving lights to show its support of going green. This is not only a good idea to encourage other Chicago Christmas consumers to use energy-safe ornaments, but it's also an effective way to save much needed money. According to the...

Toolbars Help You Find the Best Price, and Buying Green Doesn't Always
2009-10-26 05:22:00 Gregory Karp's column about browser add-ons that will help you find the lowest price online for any given item. "Will buying green put you in the red?" questions whether certain environmentally friendly investments will really pay for themselves. A good read if you are considering buying new windows or a hybrid car for purely financial reasons. Best tidbit: Turning off the lights when you leave a room really does save money -- but ONLY if you're still using incandescents. For CFLs (compact flourescent lights), the cheapest thing to do is leave it on if you'll be gone for 15 minutes or less. That's turning the bulbs on and off detracts from their lifespan.

The Largest Green Wall in North America
2009-09-22 19:09:00 A few months back, we reported that PNC (NYSE: PNC) was in the process of installing the largest green wall in North American on the exterior of their Pittsburgh headquarters building, One PNC Plaza. Now, as you can see in this monstrous image, PNC has successfully installed the 2,380 square-foot living wall with 602 modular panels. Each 2'x2' panel has roughly 24 plants, so there’s approximately 14,448 plants covering the wall of this 30-story building. Wow! Studies show the south-facing wall is 25% cooler behind the green wall than ambient temperatures. Of the eight varieties of plants on the wall, some will change in the winter and some will bloom in the spring. It’s a beautiful display and there’s probably no more obvious way to wear your environmental commitment on your shirt sleeve. Part of that commitment includes sourcing materials locally, and PNC acquired all hardware, plants, materials, and installers within a 500-mile radius of downtown Pittsburgh. ...

On the Bubble: Sean Green
2009-09-15 17:23:00 I'm not one of those "break-up the core" fans, I believe with the caliber of our five top players ( Wright, Reyes, Beltran, Santana, Rodriguez) when healthy depending upon the players you surround them with, you are an automatic contender. In fact, my contention is that Omar's biggest failure is his inability to provide his core with a solid surrounding cast. The team is filled with either elite players or huge risk/reward type guys, Omar has never provided those second tier type of solid regular players who would never be considered All-stars.So call me an optimist if you must, but I don't think we're that far off from returning to contention, I'm going to do a series of posts on guys who were the supporting cast this season, who I believe are on the bubble. When the Mets acquired Sean Green in the J.J. Putz trade there were many who felt he was the steal of the entire deal. Green was a 29 y/o relatively cheap and controllable player, known as a workhorse with a set-up man's ...
