Not only does it make you aware of so many things going on in so many parts of our planet, with ecosystems and animals and shrinking liveable spaces for them, but it also makes you want to do something to save them. And, it is just plain cool.

The first installment on Antarctic and Arctic regions was filmed over a one year period of dudes living in tents on the ice. Totally awesome, and some amazing shots of baby penguins, and polar bears and igloos and …. ice? (tribute to sanka from Cool Runnings, you know, that 1997 classic?)

Too bad the hubby is currently my personal shopper. Maybe I can get him on board though. Maybe I could even sew my own!

Aussie supermarkets are weeding out the plastic bags, which is good. We just re-use canvas ones, which is cool. Yay!

(As if I needed another reason to go to Whole Foods!)

And even though something like changing your lightbulbs seems completely inconsequential – every little bit helps. Even just spreading the idea of being more environmentally friendly helps. The more people that change their lightbulbs, or recylce their milk jugs, the better our environment will become.
