In the current issue of Sierra, the “Enjoy” section (toward the front of the magazine) features the results of our office-wide taste test of a variety of cranberry sauces. The homemade sauce won by a landslide; our staff deemed it “gorgeous,” “fresh,” and “delicious.”
This might have left some of you might be thinking, “but making cranberry sauce is so much work!” That’s why we’d like to share with you a quick, simple, and delectable recipe for spiced cranberry sauce that takes barely more…

Expecting guests? that week we’ll offer tips for green celebrations.
Tip #1:Â Skip the Paper
Make your group gatherings tree-friendly by avoiding paper products. Send invitations electronically using Evite. Create a festive mood by setting the table with the good china and the cloth napkins. If you don’t have a complete dinner set, have fun with mix-and-match decor by borrowing plates from friends or finding used dinnerware through Freecycle.
Share your tips: How do you reuse, reduce, and re…

Yesterday, the 2009 Volkswagen Jetta TDI was named Green Car of the Year at the annual Los Angeles Auto Show. The diesel-powered, turbocharged engine is EPA-rated to sip “clean diesel” at a modest 41 miles per gallon on the highway, 30 in the city. Many environmentalists might find the decision to bestow such an honor on an all-fossil-fuel-powered car a bit unsettling. While 41 mpg puts the TDI among the most fuel-efficient cars on the American road, it still scores an industry-average six po…

There’s new weapon in the war on drugs: eco-guilt. Every gram of cocaine snorted destroys four square meters of rainforest, Francisco Santos Calderon, Colombia’s vice president, told British police officers on Wednesday. Santos launched the “Shared Responsibility” campaign in London in May. John P. Walters, the United States’ “drug czar,” said in 2002 that Columbia has lost roughly 3 million acres of rainforest, and cocaine processors release more than 370,000 tons of chemicals into the fragil…

Just weeks after CNN beamed ridiculous holograms from across the country into their studios on election night, Barack Obama is taking a page from their playbook in the anatomy of the now-antiquated pre-taped video statement. It’s not the Grammys, it’s the Governor’s Global Summit. California governor Arnold Schwarzenegger is flexing his environmental muscles along with governors from four other states to host more than 800 attendees at the Beverly Hills Hilton. And it’ll open with a video …

Just thinking about Thanksgiving dinner seems to expand the stomach. that week, we offer tips to help you green your feast.
Tip #4:Â Leave No Trace
After tripping on tryptophan and overloading on carbs, the last thing you want to deal with after a hefty Thanksgiving dinner is leftovers. This year, ask guests to bring their own Tupperware containers to reduce the use of tinfoil and save space in your fridge. Or find a local soup kitchen or shelter that will take prepared foods. After…
