Butt still being liberally kicked. So for now, have some links:17 Tips for Buying Organic Food - Some of it is common sense, but there are some gems in here. Plus, BankRate.com revolves around saving money, and I know that's the thought on everyone's mind when they think about choosing organic.

My internship is kicking my butt. I'm so busy creating a green company, I haven't had time to go green myself. Which is actually the crux of the dilemma here, really. We're so busy hustling to get by, we don't have time to plant organic gardens. And we all have two jobs, so an hour long ride on public transit isn't very attractive when you work ten miles away.So, until I'm back with witty insight

As promised, the weekend green update. I'm working on a calendar for us, so the blog can focus on commentary.Sadly, there isn't too much going on this weekend aside from some opportunities to purchase locally grown food and other products. I suggest heading over to the Georgia Organics or Local Harvest websites (thanks, Reg!) to find other farmer's markets in your area.*Remember to watch out

The enemy of a good blogger is time, so instead of giving you a well researched, thoughtful post, I'm here to pass on a few links that should save you time in your quest to get green. (Maybe they'll save you more time than they've saved me, seeing is that I don't have time for a larger post right now.)Ideal Bite - Become a "Biter" by signing up for their mailing list to receive daily Green tips.

Coming soon: a collage of pictures from "green" websites featuring dripping leaves, Photoshopped-to-be-impossibly-green leaves, worn hands holding tiny sprouting leaves, and even cartoon depictions of leaves. Even the EcoLogo (one of the good ones!) is made up of doves with overlapping plumage shaped like leaves.Even only peripherally aware consumer during the "lite" craze knows that many labels

Is it possible for a young, recently laid-off grad student and wannabe environmentalist to go Green in Atlanta? I have no clue, but that's what I'm going to find out. And I'm going to blog about it along the way.True confession: When I first decided to "Go Green," I was sitting in the audience as Bill Clinton campaigned for Hillary in a rousing speech at the school where, as if one degree that
