I woke up the morning of Earth Day, walked to my nearest local coffee shop with my boys (while talking to them about saving the planet, of course), and drank organic coffee and ate scones baked in a nearby kitchen. While I patted myself on the back for my friendliness to mama earth, I pulled up an email from Divester's Willy Volk about his Earth Day celebration.

By the time I took my third sip of coffee, Willy and his wife had already cleaned up a whole beach (FIVE bags of garbage!) and blogged about it. They weren't the only ones out-celebrating me. Nicole Weston at Slashfood told us how to grocery shop for good (hint: canvas bags are superior to reusing your paper ones); Tokyo is on a campaign to get restaurants to donate vegetable oil for biodiesel; Brad Pitt is fighting to make New Orleans greener; and (don't forget) Autoblog launched an environmentally-friendly spinoff, Autoblog Green.
