Trash talk, Local food, North Lake Pole & Plastic roundup!

Intern Alex captured this shot in Costa Rica! We are def jealous. 😉

Happy Friday, friends! We have a return to our Friday link roundups since there’s too much to cover by one little (green philly) blog:

Trashed by trash-talk?! Apparently those amazing “solar” Big Belly Trashcans were criticized heavily by City Controller Alan Butkovitz. Syracuse was considering the Big Bellies, so it will be interesting to see how this plays out in NY.
Penn’s Center for High Impact Philanthropy helps get local food, sustainable agriculture & more to those in need.
AMAZING local food infographic. And I suffer from infographic exhaustion.
Climate change deniers, look here: Santa Claus is homeless as the North Pole is currently a huge lake where the ice should be.
Happy One Year Anniversary to our plastic bag efforts! We’ll have more updates as momentum continues to move on.
