  • Enviro blogs

    I started an environmental blog about five weeks ago, but hardly out of political expediency.
    Part of the incentive was money, at least on my part, and to see if an environmnetal blog could
    gain a wider audience.  Blogging from the West Coast does have a downside in that so much of environmental reporting revolves  around Beltway politics.

  • Autism And the Environment

    Last Summer, I had the good fortune of profiling
    Surfers Healing, a non profit dedicated to bringing
    autistic kids to the beach for a theraputic day of surfing.  Founded by former surf champion Izzy Paskowitz and his extended clan of relatives and friends. If you want to meet fired-up people, spend a day with parents whose children suffer from a deblitating disease. The grassroots organization has considerably raised  the level of awareness in So Cal simply by providing a service that parents and kids seem to love. Subsequently, there's also been a HBO documentary and  ABC has optioned their lifestory for a TV drama.
