Annotated Links

1. http://www.epa.gov/climatechange/
This website is an excellent source for all things environmental. I used it in the beginning of my blog for reference about greenhouse gases. I got many of my green tips from the “What You Can Do” section on the left hand side of the page.

2. http://www.guardian.co.uk/environment/ethicallivingblog/2008/jun/06/isthereanypointingoinggr
This site explores the question many people seem to ask; is there really a point in going green? It explores the thoughts of many centered around one person doing something isn’t going to do much. The article encourages people to lead by example in the green movement so others will follow suit.

3. http://www.wisegeek.com/what-is-cap-and-trade.htm
This link explores cap-and-trade legislation. It is a basic reference for anyone who does not know what it is. Also, it provides unbiased information, leaning neither toward nor against cap-and-trade legislation.

4. http://www.whitehouse.gov/issues/energy_and_environment/
This site explains what’s happening in the White House with energy and the environment. It is the official White House website. It shows the progress and guiding principles for energy legislation in the United States.
