1 teacher. 1 world. Eco-friendly. EdTech-friendly. Classroom-friendly.Teacher-friendly. Kid-friendly. Parent-friendly. Planet-friendly. Sustainability. Innovation. What can we do to increase the likelihood that this one li'l world will be here eons from now? Whether you are a teacher, a parent, or just someone who firmly believes that every tiny bit helps, let's all be part of the solution rather than adding to the problem, knowing that innovation along the way is the way to make that happen!

Still Talking About CNN's 2013 Heroes
Sunday night I curled up on the couch to watch the 2013 CNN Heroes: An All-Star Tributes . The top 10 heroes were highlighted (and you can learn more about them and some of the other nominees here.) Their stories were telling, heartwarming, and inspiring of hope. TV you walk away feeling good from (which doesn't happen much any more, these days)!
I've stated before (after the news of the Hero of the Year came out, but before Sunday's show aired) how I was particularly proud of home state eco-man Chad Pregracke. Well, that didn't stop at his acceptance speech. He spoke more about it afterwards (and in this clip below) with Anderson Cooper. Yep! Illinois environmentalist done good--well done, Chad!
If you missed the tribute, you can watch it again this Saturday, December 7th at 9 pm ET/PT on CNN.
