People take Manhattan

The City of New York just gave the boot to cars. Times Square is now a pedestrian mall, in addition to another section further down Broadway between 33rd and 35th. Pretty amazing.

There was also pointed mention of [...]

Don’t Sustainy the Sheets!

Just when you thought you were safe in your own bed… comes some information about cute, cuddly cotton. It’s a sensitive little shrub, very suceptible to attack from multiple insect species.
