NY Times: No Impact Man (& Fam!)



Morning All,

Just blundered onto a great piece in the Times about Colin Beavan, NYC's own No Impact Man.
For last year Colin and his family have been living under a rule set that would make most of us shudder, but this rule set is designed to help the family live with... you guessed it, almost no impact on the world around them.

Of course, the words "no impact" are used here with a fair amount of irony, as Colin's blog, a journal of his year and life during the experiment, has communicated to a huge amount of people just how little one actually has to give up in order to live sustainably.

We suppose him calling it "Massive Impact Man" might rub folks the wrong way.

But hey...

Here's the No Impact Man blog.
Here's an Op-Ed piece Colin wrote for the Times about his home worm composting bin.
Here's the No Impact Man piece in the NY Times.
And here's a picture of a mouse riding on a toad's back!

Love to all,
