Eco-Beat, 11/3
Why did Alicia Silverstone so unkindly cancel her "Kind Diet" book tour? Wanna see what a fat, unshaven Captain Planet looks like? Has Dancing Butterflies produced the worst eco-song of the modern era? Today's Eco-Beat has the scoop on all the latest green news and tips.
Green in a Flash:
 Alicia Silverstone Cancels Stops on TourThe final three stops on Alicia's book tour have been abruptly scrapped, and thus far no explanation has been given. Fans hoping to meet the "Kind Diet" author in St. Louis, Detroit and Atlanta are out of luck. Hope you caught her on Craig Ferguson during the blackout. |
 Captain Planet Is DisgruntledThe greenest superhero of them all has been unemployed for over a decade and it's not doing favors for his attitude, personal hygiene, or his formerly rock-hard abs. Still, he's fighting the good fight with world leaders in Copenhagen; check out the video. |
 "Let's Save Our Environment" Worst Green Jam Ever?When it comes to enviro-rock, there are mountains of epic failures and only a few truly listenable earth-conscious songs. "Let's Save Our Environment" is not one of them. The video, however, is so bad it's good and with any luck it'll go viral. |
 Can I Recycle My Stack of Holiday Receipts?As you shop your way through the holiday season, you're almost certainly going to amass a hefty pile of ridiculously long receipts -- but don't recycle them. Not only might you want to make a return, the vast majority of receipts are printed on non-recyclable thermal paper. |
 Gold is Green at Vancouver OlympicsSilver and bronze are too. Each of the medals at the 2010 Olympic games in Vancouver are made from recycled materials harvested from old electronics and are etched with West Coast Native American designs by artist Corinne Hunt. Awesome. |
