Actress Rachel McAdams, when not starring in The Notebook or Mean Girls (which I totally didn’t see, I swear, but didn’t it turn out to be pretty funny?), cares enough about the environment to co-found greenissexy.org, a website devoted to all things eco-conscious.  The site, which she began with friends Megan and Didi, covers a wide range of topics, urging readers to “think big” in response to environmental issues, while also addressing the little things you can do daily to curb some of those greenhouse gasses.

I liked this site quite a bit because the reader isn’t being hit over the head with what he or she MUST DO RIGHT NOW to save the earth, but instead is given a laid back, fun site to click through and learn a little bit.

One of my favorite parts was this, where you are provided with a form letter to use to write to a company you think is doing an environmentally-sound job.  As the site says,

It’s been said that if we like something, we’ll tell 3 people, but if we hate it, we’ll tell 12. Needless to say, companies get a lot more complaints than commendations. Be the minority! Next time you notice a company doing something green that you appreciate, consider sending them a quick email or letter. Like cheering in a stadium, your positive reinforcement can really make a difference.

You can here and check out the site.  It’s a really cool website that has a lot of good, low-key tips for you to use every day, and I think it’s very worthwhile.

Also, going to a site co-run by Rachel McAdams gives me a chance to think about Wedding Crashers, which gives me a chance to think about Rachel McAdams’ fiancée in the movie played by Bradley Cooper, which gives me a chance to think about Wet Hot American Summer, which gives me an excuse to post something like this:

And also this:

Now, it’s not so much I have a giant mancrush on Paul Rudd, it’s just that I love Paul Rudd and want to be with him every day.
