The AMNH Climate Change Exhibit: become more educated & renew your personal commitment
I also went to the Climate Change exhibit on a whim. It's free for members (one of the 2 special exhibits that are and I was not impressed with the other previously...), since Columbia and I are members, I decided it was at least worth a walk-through.
I wasn't expecting what I saw. Not only is the exhibit extremely well crafted visually, but it's chalked full of information for all types of learners and personalities. It also doesn't dwell purely on the negative (of which many already know a lot about because of Al Gore), but offers a multitude of ways to improve the current problem both globally and personally. Seeing so many ways in which I can make a difference renewed my desire to live a greener life.
One 'greener' idea that I've been toying with for a while is getting some drying racks and having Columbia rig a clothes line in the bedrooms. It will save us a lot of money, add humidity to a very dry area of the apartment and save energy. How can we go wrong? In fact, I've decided that this is what I'm going to put on my Christmas list!
JC's Christmas Wishlist
1 - laundry rope
2 - two drying racks
3 - a large bag of wooden clothespins
4 - hooks to rig up the clothesline and a willing husband to execute said rigging
While the exhibit is free for members, it's a pretty penny otherwise. If you plan on visiting the AMNH frequently in the next year, I'd highly recommend a membership as it's mostly tax deductible and full of great perks - this exhibit being on of them.

Wow. I never thought about how drying laundry can up the humidity in your apartment. Every little bit helps, doesn't it? Our drying racks are the shower curtain rod [for stuff on hangers] and the backs of our dining chairs.
