Go diva, environmental style
How to achieve diva status and maintain a clear conscience? Slowly, that’s how. I started easy, with a “low energy” theme - just to get into the groove, you know?
My next step was to check out the competition - who are the other environmental divas out there? There’s not much, let me tell you.
I did find Elizabeth, a non-diva, who posted this blahblahblog entry, where she claims she’s not a diva (we believe you, Elizabeth). You know the blahblahblog type, right? Where the blogger rants on and on about something you might be interested in if he/she didn’t kill it with his/her ranting to the point where as you’re reading your brain starts going “blah blah blah” and you skim the rest of the entry to see if there’s anything good (there rarely is)? Yeah, that’s what that entry is like, but hey, at least she isn’t using comic sans.
Other than Elizabeth, there wasn’t much in the way of environmental divaism out there. Hurray for the niche-filler (me)! But what to blog about that might keep me even mildly interested? A couple of things:
- Consumerism (sounds lame, but I’ll spin it)
- Daylight savings (uh, what? are you kidding here?)
- What to shop with (surely there’s something other than those hideous canvas bags)
- Where to shop (now we’re talking!)
- Pro-environment shopping and products that replace non-environmental products
- Whatever else I feel like writing about
So, I’m going diva, environmental style. Get ready for a diva with a conscience.
Because a Diva Cares
P.S. Aside from a bit o’ ranting, Elizabeth has some interesting posts. This bit on polyester and consumerism is readable if you ignore the bit about not buying clothes for a year.
