Greener Thinking was founded to try to help find a way to make “going green” more than just a cult with geek like savy. We knew that going green is more than just having a few people who were looking for a challenge. Going green needs to be more of a requirement. It needs to [...]]]> http://greenerthinking.com/2009/01/20/president-obama-marks-a-new-era-of-greener-thinking/feed/ 0 http://greenerthinking.com/2008/04/20/presidential-hopeful-barack-obama-and-the-environment/ http://greenerthinking.com/2008/04/20/presidential-hopeful-barack-obama-and-the-environment/#comments Mon, 21 Apr 2008 05:46:54 +0000 Jonathan http://larrythelitterbug.com/?p=252
Obama says to reduce carbon emissions 80% below 1990 levels by 2050 he will create a “Cap-and-Trade” system that means that you will be able to purchase credits to offset your carbon footprint. The money made off of these credits will be used to invest in creating green alternatives. These new alternatives will need skilled [...]]]> http://greenerthinking.com/2008/04/20/presidential-hopeful-barack-obama-and-the-environment/feed/ 0 http://greenerthinking.com/2007/12/03/the-future-of-energy/ http://greenerthinking.com/2007/12/03/the-future-of-energy/#comments Tue, 04 Dec 2007 05:34:14 +0000 Daniel http://larrythelitterbug.com/?p=222
Many people are very excited about future energy sources and our transition to get away from fossil fuels. It seems like almost every day you hear about a new advancement in alternative energy or some new initiative or incentive to use more environmentally-friendly energy sources. Everyone seems to think that potential uses for many of [...]]]> http://greenerthinking.com/2007/12/03/the-future-of-energy/feed/ 0 http://greenerthinking.com/2007/11/06/nyse-cdc-launch-new-carbon-exchange/ http://greenerthinking.com/2007/11/06/nyse-cdc-launch-new-carbon-exchange/#comments Wed, 07 Nov 2007 05:28:34 +0000 Jason http://larrythelitterbug.com/?p=210
As early as 2008, the operator of the New York Stock Exchange called Euronext and the French bank called Caisse des Depots (CDC) has announced plans to launch a trading market dealing strictly with carbon.  As of late, the larger exchanges within the United States have been keeping their eye on the global carbon trading market. The reason being? It [...]]]> http://greenerthinking.com/2007/11/06/nyse-cdc-launch-new-carbon-exchange/feed/ 0 http://greenerthinking.com/2007/10/10/greenland-and-the-inconvenient-ruling/ http://greenerthinking.com/2007/10/10/greenland-and-the-inconvenient-ruling/#comments Thu, 11 Oct 2007 05:20:32 +0000 Jonathan http://larrythelitterbug.com/?p=189
Once upon a time there was a planet in a galaxy far far away. This planet had many residents through out its lifetime. Some of these residents were kind to the planet and it made the planet happy. These residents were called “birds” and “animals”. There were also some residents who had learned if you [...]]]> http://greenerthinking.com/2007/10/10/greenland-and-the-inconvenient-ruling/feed/ 0 http://greenerthinking.com/2007/10/03/earths-temperature-problem/ http://greenerthinking.com/2007/10/03/earths-temperature-problem/#comments Thu, 04 Oct 2007 05:18:02 +0000 Jason http://larrythelitterbug.com/?p=181
If you’ve ever picked up a National Geographic magazine you may have noticed that many of the issues come with detailed maps inside. These maps are of professional quality and often contain more information than just the map itself. If you haven’t, then I strongly urge you to pick up a copy from your local bookstore or [...]]]> http://greenerthinking.com/2007/10/03/earths-temperature-problem/feed/ 0 http://greenerthinking.com/2007/09/27/bush-%e2%80%93-un-%c2%bdenvironment-two-day-environmental-conference/ http://greenerthinking.com/2007/09/27/bush-%e2%80%93-un-%c2%bdenvironment-two-day-environmental-conference/#comments Fri, 28 Sep 2007 05:14:57 +0000 Jonathan http://larrythelitterbug.com/?p=177
When you think of great environmentalists, the first on your list is probably not George Bush. Well as of Wednesday Bush wanted to change everyone’s perspective with a two-day conference held this week. But it seems that his conference may have been no more than to do just that, change your “perspective” and nothing else.

As always art imitates life… or is it the other way around? They come so close any more that it is hard to tell which came first. While watching the new “Simpson’s Movie” I realized that sometimes the best way to get a point across is to exaggerate it. Before you read any further, I [...]]]> http://greenerthinking.com/2007/09/24/the-simpsons-exaggeration/feed/ 0 http://greenerthinking.com/2007/07/10/live-earth-cont/ http://greenerthinking.com/2007/07/10/live-earth-cont/#comments Wed, 11 Jul 2007 04:46:07 +0000 Daniel http://larrythelitterbug.com/?p=115
      Well, the Live Earth concerts are over and from what I saw, seemed to be a relative success. I watched part of the event and it seemed not only entertaining, but also very informative. I was particularly impressed with a lot of the short films they showed during the television broadcast covering all sorts of [...]]]> http://greenerthinking.com/2007/07/10/live-earth-cont/feed/ 0 http://greenerthinking.com/2007/07/05/live-earth/ http://greenerthinking.com/2007/07/05/live-earth/#comments Fri, 06 Jul 2007 04:45:27 +0000 Daniel http://larrythelitterbug.com/?p=113
      A concert event unlike any other is coming to eight cities across the world in just a couple days. It is called Live Earth and its goal is to raise awareness about global warming and how everyone can do their part to help control it. There are a tremendous number of musicians lined up to take part [...]]]> http://greenerthinking.com/2007/07/05/live-earth/feed/ 0
