There are going to be not one, but two "green" inaugural balls this coming Tuesday night. And like Siel from BlogHer: I'm not going to either one :)
Siel has great tips on greening your inauguration parties...starting with the very idea of inviting a crowd to watch together, so you save energy vs. watching individually, of course.
In addition, you can actually watch one of the green balls online, in streaming HD no less. Just go to http://www.greenball2009.org/. (This is the one chaired by Al Gore.)
The Ball also has its own blog (not too bloggy yet, I must say) and you'll be able to follow the Ball live on Twitter. (Yeah, I followed, what the heck?!)
Personally, I'm TiVo'ing the inauguration itself, and a friend is coming over to watch it that evening after work (after we go on a nice, brisk walk.) Of course I'll be serving vegan food.
So, it's a pretty green evening I have planned myself!
What are you doing for Inauguration Day?
I'm late commenting here ...but wanted you to see all the cool ball gowns I found made from garbage:
