Screw it

We screwed Earth Day—get over it 2

Another Earth Day has come and gone. In most cities, the green, biodegradable streamers have come down, and the free eco-swag already has been shoved under the bed. What now?

Well, if you've been hanging around Grist lately, you would know that that's the question we've been asking all along. What now? What happens the day after Earth Day? How do we extend our green commitment all year long?

When you "crap all over Earth Day," you can expect some angry barbs in return. Case in point is Lloyd Alter's post over at TreeHugger.com about Grist's "Screw Earth Day" campaign, which we found to be a fair and thoughtful rejoinder.

Save money (and the planet) by avoiding bottled water. Already heard it? Then get busy converting your friends and family to the anti-bottled-water campaign.
Ugh, April 22nd already?

Why does Grist hate Earth Day? Are the Gristers jealous or something?
