Before we begin this week’s edition of WSF, I must apologize for being gone last Friday and missing the chance to direct you semi-snidely to some interesting green business links.

But let’s move on, because this week, it’s all about the future. Now’s the time to start planning ahead, figuring out what needs to change and cutting your losses.

Yes, if you’re like many people in the news this week, you’re learning that your actions have consequences. That, or you’re still blissfully unaware of your huge mistakes—and with weather like this, it’s probably better that way. Ladies and Gentlemen, welcome to this week’s heavily sarcastic edition of Weekly Sustainability Facts! Read the full story

Last week, the U.S. cap and trade bill we keep talking about (barely) passed through the House of Representatives. Since then the news has been a jumbled mess of celebrations, warnings, facts, opinions, predictions, diatribes, rants and the lyrics to “Thriller.” Have you been keeping up with all of it? Find out in this week’s edition of Weekly Sustainability Facts—a new prize- and competition-free online game show and news roundup here at Padosa.com. Read the full story
