Not Your Mama’s Chevy: Cruisin’ Green Diva Style in the Chevy Volt

Green Diva Mizar on Chevy Volt

Maybe I’m just a fickle gal, but it seems that I fall in love with the last car I test drive. The Chevy Volt is my 4th week-long review ride, and as of now, it is at the top of my real-world, eco-ride list. Sandy totaled two of our cars (with one tree!), and my [...]

Green Divas Radio Show: What do you know about light pollution?

protecting the dark skies

Our technology fairy didn’t fall asleep this week, but she was a little late to the party! We missed the first 10 minutes of the show, which was mostly witty BS. The show starts in the middle of our initial conversation about the Chevy Volt I’ve been test-driving and reviewing this week. We had some [...]

Running with Mariel Hemingway Part 1: In the Green Divas Studio

Mariel Hemingway

The title of this article is metaphoric only, because I assure you there is no way I could physically keep up with Mariel Hemingway, if I ever had the opportunity or notion to run with her! And yes, it is my clever way of trying to weave in her two current projects — a documentary [...]

Green Diva Radio Show: Favorite Green Living Products – Spring 13

green divas product review roundup

This week instead of having our usual show we decided to devote the whole hour to reviewing all the green living products that have been patiently waiting for our witty commentary. Important note: we are never compensated for the reviews, and we only review products that we like and want to recommend. So, while we don’t get [...]

I posted about the first 2 days of my Kaeng Reang 3-day healthy detox earlier in the week. I started the week out by drinking the smoothies in my Ringo Starr glass – I have a collection of Beatles glasses that I LOVE. Please check out the first post (it’s a quick read. go ahead, [...]

Healthy Detox, Green Diva Style

Yes, that is an image of Ringo Starr (drummer for the Beatles in case you live under a rock) on my designated detox smoothie glass. Although he looks a little glum about it all, somehow his presence on my glass makes this a much more entertaining experience. I was told by more than one trusted [...]

Green Divas Radio Show: Are you an eco-novice?

Fueled by earl grey tea (but don’t worry – NO TEA NEAR THE BOARD!), we had a very busy, very green diva show this week. Somehow, between having our wonderful Green Diva Jamie back in the studio, and Green Diva Gina sitting on mic, GD correspondent Nomi’s awesome report, guest Green Dude Seth Leitman’s report from [...]

Where does that Earl Grey tea come from?

I was sitting at my desk last week staring at my tea cup, which is ALWAYS full of some form of earl grey tea during the daylight hours. My love of this tea goes back far enough that I’m not really sure when I became hopelessly hooked, but it was probably my summer in England [...]

Green Divas Radio Show: Can You be Plastic-Free?

plastic world

As always, we had an action-packed show with a lot of information between the bawdy jokes and general ribaldry. It must be spring . . . In our mixed-bag opening, Green Dude Eco Ed talked about an innovative student who has developed a way to clean up some of the plastic and other garbage floating [...]

Green Divas Radio Show: Valentine’s Rescue & Going Solar

GD_GracieMae

We had WAY too much fun in the studio last week. Eco Ed Schwartz joined us to be our resident Green Dude, and even though Green Diva Jamie and silent Jessie were not in the studio, we managed to have so much fun that we forgot to record the first 20 minutes of the show! ahhhhhhhh [...]
