November 2008 Archives

Are you a recycle geek like me? If you are, this is a pretty cool video. I always wondered how all the stuff I put into my blue bin is separated. Now I know.

Don't recycle? Are you freaking kidding me? Get with it and take some personal responsibility. You live on this planet too.

Last Month the founding president of Heal the Bay, Dorothy Green, passed away.

Founded in 1985 Santa Monica-based Heal the Bay, with Dorothy Green at its helm, grew into one of the region's most powerful environmental organizations.

"Dorothy Green was simply the most influential water quality activist in California for the last 30 years," said Mark Gold, her protégé and current president of Heal the Bay.

If you would like to pay tribute to Dorothy and her years of tireless work, there will be a public memorial celebration on Sunday November 23. The memorial will fittingly be just south of the Santa Monica Pier at 10AM. Click HERE for additional information and parking instructions.

My condolences go out to all that loved and knew her. And of course please support the efforts of Heal the Bay.

One vote makes a difference. Your voice matters. I will wait in line for as long as I need to tomorrow because I refuse to not be counted and you should too.

About this blog

Roxanne Kotzman is a Daily News Photo Department veteran of nine years. When she and longtime friend Stacy Long discovered their love all of all things environmentally responsible, they launched Happy Monkey Planet and jumped head-first into the vibrant eco-community.

Wow, so much to learn! But initially the idea is a pretty simple one: Let's change the world through information, education and action.

Rox & Stacy are a lot like you: ecologically minded but sometimes just plain overwhelmed when charged with the task of making a far-reaching difference in the environment. They have jobs, families, homes, lives and pets.

But what if doing better was a simple as a light-bulb change, a reusable canvas grocery bag, recycling that soda can or a cold-water wash?

These eco-chicks just hope to have a little fun, learn a little more, share a lot of information and maybe make the planet a happier, greener, cleaner place.
