Our friends at TreeHugger have some info on the debate on the use of paper vs. styrofoam vs. ceramic:
In this story the ‘good guy’ ceramic cup wins hands down in the functional use category. Designed for a long, durable life it can be used for well over 3,000 slurping sessions. Whereas the other cups are intended for trivial single use. Thus their lightweight, non-durable, disposable construction means they can perform well, measured against the other environmental criteria.
Here are links to things we talked about Carnegie Mellon Study, Edmunds Study. The Edmunds study did not find tire pressure made a difference, but I’ve seen many that prove it makes a difference.

What is Real World Green?
Real World Green is a bi-weekly web video show about how we as individuals can reduce our impact on the earth in practical, down-to-earth ways. You can sign up to get an email alert for new episodes by sending an email to eric@realworldgreen.com . You can also subscribe to RWG on iTunes
Real World Green was created by Eric Rochow, who also is the host of Gardenfork a web video show about cooking, gardening, and other fun stuff
"Eric Rochow, host and producer of GardenFork.tv, is now producing Real World Green, “an internet video show about practical things we can do to help lower our impact on the earth.”
The key word for me in that description is practical. I continually consume information about global warming, greenhouse gases and all the other buzzword-compliant environmental topics but hardly any of them tell me what I can do now - today - to really make a difference without my having to do my own research."
