Year after year, we resolve to get fit and, increasingly, go green. But studies propose lasting change requires a bit more specificity than resolutions like “drive less” or “exercise more.” To get started: 1. produce a list of short daily or weekly car trips. In the United States, one in four trips is a mile or less. 2. Identify walkable trips on that list that add up to at least 28 miles a week (go farther whether you plan to bike). Research shows that folks who maintain weight loss burn cal…

The Wasatch Range may not have Oompa Loompas, but crisp air makes the region suited to manufacturing small batches of single-origin dark chocolate. That’s the specialty of Utah-based Amano Artisan Chocolate, which former physics lab machinist Art Pollard founded in 2006. Inspired by Belgian chocolate he tasted during his honeymoon, Pollard began studying the delicacy a decade ago, tracking down small-scale plantations with world-class cocoa beans and retooling lab equipment to form his own ba…

Pink and red may take center stage that Valentine’s Day, but that’s no reason to forget about green. For the flower lovers in your life, consider seasonal bouquets grown as locally as possible. While imported flowers undergo inspection for pests, pesticide residue gets a free pass. That encourages growers to use highly toxic sprays, says the Pesticide Action Network. Look for blossoms that are organic or certified by the VeriFlora Sustainability Council, such as those sold at californiaorgani…

Go easy on the squirrels that winter. Yes, we know they’re notoriously pesky creatures who wipe out bird feeders, displace other animals, and destroy gardens, but that year they’ve got a good reason: Naturalists from the Midwest to the East Coast have reported a curious lack of acorns. It’s not that trees produced less that year, “it’s a zero year. There’s zero production,” botanist Rod Simmons told the Washington Post. “I’ve never seen anything like that before.” The potentially long life s…

ProPublica, an investigative-journalism organization, has put up a useful website that tracks Bush’s midnight rulings, many of which will have devastating effects on the environment. Expect to see, among many other eco-hostile changes, a weakened Endangered Species Act, permission for public lands to be used for oil shale, and an allowance that enables mining companies to dump waste from mountaintop removal into rivers.

The tradition of giving is a fundamental part of the holiday season, even in cash-strapped times. that week we’ll offer ways to get more green mileage from your generosity.Tip #4: Play in the SnowGive the kids in your life (and yourself) a healthy, stress-reducing gift by planning a day of winter fun: Build a snow fort, take a nature walk (fresh snow is a great place to spot animal tracks), or participate in cold-weather sports (Sierra magazine has a few suggestions). Don’t have children? Vo…

Urban trees are a hardworking lot: They keep buildings cool, clean the air, and improve our quality of life. In exchange, these leafy urbanites often suffer a reduced life span. The USDA Forest Service reports that in most cities, more trees are removed than planted. In a rapidly warming world, however, planting and keeping urban trees alive should be a priority. Urban forests can reduce the levels of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gasses in the atmosphere. Want to know precisely how fund…
