Imagine a sustainable Northwest! Having trouble? Sightline comes to the rescue with this slideshow, featuring photos submitted by hundreds of people all over the region. P-Patches, bicycles and solar panels make guest appearances, naturally. Have you added a crunchy-granola snap to their Flickr pool?

In other Earth Day news, Sightline also reports on the $20 million in federal funding that Seattle has gotten for weatherizing buildings. (Not wasting energy is cheaper than building new power plants.) Mayor McGinn was in DC yesterday, accepting a novelty check (not really, but how wonderful to think so) from Vice President Joe Biden, so he missed seeing what a terrible job he's doing, according to the Seattle Times. What's $20 million when it comes to acting swiftly about this panhandling menace!
