Find Out How Drinking Tropicana Juice Can Help Save The Rainforest!

Jumping on the green wagon this time is Tropicana Juice. The company has already made great effort in recycling and reducing their carbon footprint. Now, their latest mission to save the earth requires your help.
If you’ve bought any Tropicana Juice lately, you’ve probably noticed they have a new “Juicy Rewards” point system going on. All of their juice products now come with a special code (usually under the cap). You simply have to go to their website, create a free account, and submit the code.
Points for the codes vary, but can add up to a savings of $15 per carton. These points can be redeemed for a variety of things, including camping gear, a massage, or museum discounts, among a lot of other things.
The awesome thing about this new points program is they can also be redeemed to help the rainforest. All you have to do is donate 3 points. Why? Well, a donation of 3 points will save 100 square feet of rainforest. In particular, they are working to save the rainforest of the Ashaninka Corridor in Peru.
This is all being done in partnership with CoolEarth, which you can find out more about here.
Best of all, it’s free! Well, apart from paying for the juice–but small bottles count towards the campaign, too! And drinking juice is a great way to keep healthy.
The “Rescue the Rainforest” campaign ends on November 15, 2010. So, get out there, buy some Tropicana Juice, redeem those points and save that rainforest!

Update: Sea Shepherd Charges Japan with Piracy and Prepares for Further Legal Action
Piracy on the high seas is something you usually hear about happening with Somalians these days, or it’s turned into an epic Disney trilogy. Now it’s taken on another meaning through Whale Wars. The Sea Shepherd crew is now looking into placing criminal charges against the Japanese whalers for the destruction of their ship, the Ady Gil. The damage to the Ady Gil caused the ship to completely sink within days of the incident. Potential charges that may be filed against...
GE bags $400 million natural gas and carbon capture deal with Chevron
Oil industry giants Chevron, Shell and ExxonMobil are set to take on a large-scale liquefied natural gas production, as well as carbon capture and sequestration project in Western Australia by 2014. General Electric’s Oil and Gas division succeeded in getting the contract worth $400 million for the project’s supply and support services, providing control modules, pipeline termination structures, installations and system integration system.

Creature Feature: The Lord Howe Island Stick Insect
This week’s Creature Feature takes us to Lord Howe Island, located approximately 370 miles (660 km) off the eastern coast of Australia. This particular creature is special because it’s been referred to as the “rarest insect in the world”. The Lord Howe Island Stick Insect (also known as the Land Lobster or the Lord Howe Island Phasmid) is a critically endangered species that was once believed to be extinct. In the 1930s, it was presumed that there were no remaining members...
Trinidad and Tobago Face Water Crisis Situation
When you think of a tropical paradise, you might think of the Caribbean, palm trees, crystal blue water, and so forth. However, when a tropical island is facing a water shortage crisis, it can quickly lose all paradise appeal. Trinidad and Tobago is facing that very situation now. According to WASA (the Water and Sewerage Authority) the nation's water supply won't last until the end of the dry season (in June) if islanders keep at their current rate of water consumption....
Dumps, borders and beaches: Mexico’s garbage crisis
Rubbish is piling up in Mexico’s capital after the city’s largest waste dump, Bordo Poniente, was closed after the landfill was, for lack of a better word, filled. The landfill, in fact, was meant to close back in 2005, but the city managed to delay closure by 6 years. Now garbage is accumulating in illegal dumps in Mexico City, on street corners and even in front of monuments. The fact that Mexico lags behind in waste reducing measures, such as recycling programs,...
Sea Shepherd No Longer Alone in the War Against Whaling
Avid watchers and followers of the hit Animal Planet TV show Whale Wars will be ecstatic to hear that the Sea Shepherd crew finally has another ally to help them in their war against commercial whaling on the high seas. This past week, it was announced that New Zealand’s Earthrace crew will be joining the fight, making their combined effort quite the ominous force to be reckoned with. The Earthrace ship (recently renamed the Ady Gil) is said to look like...
Ireland: The need for green infrastructure on Europe’s ‘Emerald Isle’
Ireland industrialized and urbanized both later and to a lesser extent than many other European countries. It is known for its beautiful green countryside and pastoral villages and is considered to have low pollution levels in terms of water and air quality. Yet Ireland lost most of its forestland long ago due to the widespread establishment of agriculture. This put stresses on the survival native species, but hedgerows, riverbanks and other ‘green corridors’ still enable vestiges of Ireland’s native ecosystems to...
Unique Spectacle of The Aurora Borealis
These amazing pictures and videos show the aurora, also known as the Northern Lights, which appeared over Kirkenes-Fjell. Norway is well known as a country to view this stunning phenomenon, but rarely has it been seen in such fantastic clarity. Auroras are visible all over Norway, but it is best to view them in the north, behind the Arctic Circle. If you are planning on visiting Norway, the best time that you'll get a chance to see the Aurora is in late autumn and early...
Would you drive a folding car?
Folding bikes are great. I’ve owned two inexpensive models and even used one of them in the snow. You can park them everywhere, keep them indoors in your apartment or house so they aren’t at risk of being stolen and take them on trains and buses. Germans are often spotted on them on holiday. I guess they bring them on boats or in their cars. A folding car, however, makes me think of the Jetsons or some other comical view of...
