		<title>Motivational Quotes</title>
		<description><![CDATA[While driving across the states, I was able to stop and take a few pictures of the wide variety of anti-littering signs.  There are some I regret not getting and others which were on the side of some busy roadways &#8211; making it problematic for me to stop and run back to take pictures. [...]]]></description>

		<title>Happy St. Plastics Day!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[On St. Patrick&#8217;s Day, I went to celebrate with the Deep Creek Middle School kids from the Eco-School Club (2010).  There, I met seven seventh graders working on projects that are eco-minded.  During my visit, they gave me the pleasure of sharing their work and their points of view.
First, they all wore smart-looking [...]]]></description>

		<title>Invictus &#8211; Plasticus</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
I went to see the movie Invictus last night and enjoyed a particular scene in the movie&#8230; the one where they are in a meeting, discussing a per-bag fee on plastic bags, to reduce their impact on the environment in South Africa.  Classic!!
The common plastic bag is &#8220;affectionately&#8221; known in South Africa as the [...]]]></description>

		<title>Rockin&#8217; Eco Hero!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Well, it took months (maybe weeks, actually) to align the stars, planets, and moon, so that we could successfully hold a phone interview&#8230; today!  Steve Trash is his stage name, and eco-education is his game.  
We enjoyed a lovely 30-minute interview, while Steve talked from his home in Alabama, and shared his stories [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I just finished a phone interview with Ellie Kanipe, from the EPA, during which she mentioned some interesting things about EPA&#8217;s online presence.
First, she works with the Border 2012 program, aka &#8220;US-Mexico Border Waste Forum / Foro de Residuos de la frontera de México-US&#8221; and they have a Facebook page!
Second, they have a video contest [...]]]></description>

		<title>Where Forgotten Things Go</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
As I comb through my pictures and videos, collected since late October, I found this YouTube clip that nicely sums up waste management in America&#8230; albeit from Canada and the DailyWebTV channel!
They had another nice clip about the &#8220;Litterless Lunch&#8221;

If you have any YouTube clips you think I should share, send me a note!

		<description><![CDATA[
So, I&#8217;ve been offline for a while, again.  I&#8217;m still managing ways to balance my time between gathering info, sharing info, and enjoying my travels.  Lately, I&#8217;ve been enjoying my travels while gathering info.  The sharing part has taken a back seat &#8211; just a little!
One of the cool things I came [...]]]></description>
