One of the Flickr groups that I belong to, Landscape and Seascape (Com. 2, Invite 1), is having a Favorite Landscape
Picture contest and this Pic entitled “7449 Reflecting On a River-Scape” would be my current favorite. With the bright colors it just seems like such a festive picture.
Stop by the group to see some really beautiful landscape pictures. Got a picture to add, join the group, comment on two and invite one picture to the group.

Environmental Post for December 2007Happy New Year!
Here is the December Environment post which has some articles and more that I have noted in the course of my surfing in the past month.
Mymilemarker.com
Mymilemarker.com, which is part of the Sidebar Network that was discussed in the last post Twitter Update: Have You Overheard?, is a site that allows you to keep track of your gasoline consumption. Sign up and add all of your vehicles and after you fill up, text Milemarker your odometer readings, gallons bought, and more. Could be useful as a way of tracking your mileage for a business as well.
I think if you keep track of your gasoline consumption, it might enable you to actually reduce the amount of gas you use, which means you contribute less carbon to the environment.
Harvesting the Power of the Ocean
A wave power article about Finavera Renewables who are developing a wave park off of the coast of California.

Finerva manufactures the AquaBuoy(picture at left) which is a device that generates electricity by using a piston type
generator. Check out the Aqua Buoy video.
From Hugg.com
I found the Mother Jones article The last empire which attempts to answer the question “Will Earth survive China’s economic development? I had to stop reading the story several times because it was almost as depressing as the Plastic Ocean article, but a great informative read nevertheless.
Natural Photography
What better way to appreciate nature than to photograph it. Here are a couple of Photography sites that I recommend you check out for their breathtaking photos.
Got any environmental news or posts to share?
