<p><a href="http://juliastilesstyles.com/Styles_by_Stiles.html" target="_blank">"Styles by Stiles"</a> is Julia Styles's new satirical eco-friendly clothing line that boasts some green garbs name after some of her movies like "10 Shirts I Love About You."   In this example of creative reuse Julia took 10 vintage shirts and made 1 new cool shirt.  My personal favorite is "Save the Last Shants," this trendy design will liberate you from the  conventions of fashion.  <a href="http://www.ecorazzi.com/2009/08/21/julia-stiles-launches-mock-green-fashion-collection/" target="_blank">via Ecorazzi</a></p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h2 style="text-align: center">This video is the most bizarre way to say "respect nature" and "live and let live."</h2>
<p>Personally I hate bugs, they creep me out.  I realize this isn't rational and I respect nature so I generally suck it up and live with them.  When it comes to particularly offensive looking spiders and wasps (I hate those the most) in my house I usually capture them and let them go outside.  They probably come right back inside but at least I'm trying.</p>
<p>Now after watching this video, insects don't seem so bad.  I wasn't swayed by the man with the long nipples reasoning, instead I this video put things in perspective because it is far creepier than any bug I've seen!</p>
<p><em><strong>If you like this video, check out <a href="http://www.kirstenlepore.com/" target="_blank">Kirsten Lepore</a> and <a href="http://garrettmdavis.googlepages.com/" target="_blank">Garrett Davis</a>, the creative minds behind it!</strong></em></p>

<p style="text-align: left;">In a move to clean up their image around the galaxy the Empire has replaced their fleet of Speeder Bikes with giant chipmunks.  Citing the lower carbon emissions and the fact that chipmunks don't explode when they <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SEDy6pxU18Y" target="_blank">hit a tree</a>, the Empire insists they are doing their part to protect the fragile environment of Endor.  Critics have dismissed this as an empty gesture citing the Empire's practice of blowing up planets and the continued use of the enormous <a href="http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/d/d7/Battlehothesb.JPG" target="_blank">AT-AT Walkers</a> which one study shows release more toxic gasses into the atmosphere than <a href="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3360/3516752582_8e5dab72a7.jpg" target="_blank">Jabba the Hutt</a>.  <span id="more-7666"></span></p>
<p>The commander of the 409th Storm Trooper Legion has bumped heads with the Empire Central Command over the change, publicly stating that <em>"Going green is great and all, but conditions on the ground have deteriorated.  Since the change my men spend more time sniffing nuts, than fighting <a href="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3386/3515983597_7f7a9eca7d_o.jpg" target="_blank">Endorian insurgents</a>."</em></p>
<p>When asked by reporters if this change constitutes greenwashing  the Emperor was quoted as saying, <em>"Why you gotta be like that?"</em></p>
