Jane Goodall and New Jersey

If those two things met at a trade show they would probs say, "Hi, we have nothing to do with each other." (unless Jane has been there, either way just go with it.) But see here's the thing, both of these two have achieved "totes rad" status here in the HSUGreen office, so we must blog about them...duh.

1. Dr. Jane, I will go ahead and post the link to her bio so you can know why you should think she is awesome: http://www.biography.com/articles/Jane-Goodall-9542363 Also she just came to Abilene Texas...? Wait, what? Yeah, no joke. She tours 300 days out of the year and some smart person said, "Hey, come here" to which she replied, "Ok." The rest is history. She started "The Jane Goodall Institute" many years ago and as an extension of the a program called "Roots and Shoots" evolved. It is a youth education and activism group that empowers children and adults alike to change the world for good. All that to say, HSUGreen is a R&S advocate. And now you're like, "Wow, that is cool" and we're all like, "Yeah no big deal, but we totally went to workshops, presentations, told her all about HSUGreen, and gave her a hug."

2. New Jersey. Just wanted to hook them up with some love. According to the latest stats they are 2nd in the US for solar power production and usage, next to California (go figure). So high five NJ, we're real pumped you're not being a Montana. Thanks.

BONUS FEATURE:

You can replace light bulbs with water bottles....(but you have to cut a hole in your roof...) Either way, this is worth a mention and a watch, as in the video; WATCH THE VIDEO. (plus its in Spanish, which we love. remember, it's not illegal to be bilingual )


Ok, thats enough, especially for the 4th day of the modern week.

love the earth- theGreenteam
