Disney starts a new kind of “club”

Aug 12, 2009 Author: Greg Ugolini | Filed under: Fun and Educational

I have always been a huge Disney fan…and their recent efforts to place their eco-mindedness (Disney’s Friends for Change: Project Green) at the forefront and helped generate more interest on environmental awareness. Check out this article from Treehugger.com on the subject – very cool stuff.

What do you think about it? Feel free to comment.

The buzz about Colony Collapse Disorder

Aug 4, 2009 Author: Greg Ugolini | Filed under: Fun and Educational

I hope you are doing well.

PBS replayed the program “Silence of the Bees” which originally premiered on 10/28/2007. The program has everything to do with investigating the causes related to Colony Collapse Disorder (or CCD) and the decline in bee populations since winter of 2006. The topic also made it to one of the trivia questions in the hot environmental board game Mission Kijani. :)

I watched the program again and found myself glued to the television. Although I have a post that relates, I had not done a specific one on this topic. I wanted to be sure that I gave it attention here.

Without giving it away, I recommend you visit PBS.org for updates on the topic and even the chance to watch an episode. It is very educational and absolutely fascinating.

I hope you enjoy it. I know I did!
