Who knew there were green Twitter lists? Apparently, everyone but me. It’s old news. But now that I’m onto it, I’m all about that! Green Upgrader has the green twitter directory. It may not have been updated in awhile, but most of the folks on it are actively tweeting.

The Huffington Post green Twitter article from 2008 is not as impressive. Interesting to see who has survived the twittesphere though.

Of course you can always follow some twit’s green list if you’re so inclined, or better still, make your own damn list! Lemme know if you do. I’m too lazy to do it myself. I’ll follow.

New Jersey is known for many things…Snookie, high hair, garbage aroma, The Sopranos. Well, Bergen County (BTW, Blue Laws still exist-everything closes on Sunday!) came up with a brilliant idea this year.

The county, having reached their snow removal budget, opted for a less expensive alternative to salting the roads. Pickle juice! It seems the salt in the brine will do the trick. Sounds like an awesome idea considering it’s inexpensive (if you eat a lot of pickles) and environmentally friendly.

The problem is, your sidewalk may smell of vinegar. Not a problem if you live in NJ, because it’s probably not noticeable over all the other smells. Bada-bum!

One commenter on the CNN post I lifted this from suggested sea salt as that is free and plentiful. If you live near a beach, there ya go.
