A really green day
Topic: Green News of the day

Today is a great day, a nice sunny California morning, quiet and beautiful. Temperature may cross 80 degrees and a nice spring bloom of flowers provides a nice scenic setting. Here in the bay area, the hills turn green during this time of the year due to Jan - Mar rain and it is a pretty sight. This is not exactly a day to spend in front of the laptop, hence, I am going to take off soon. It is a perfect biking day, there is a trail very close to my house that goes by the Alameda creek and connects to the trail that goes up the Dumbarton bridge. If you do not live in this area, the bay area has a system of trails around the bay called bay trails.It is over 200 miles of paved trails and you can be as close to nature, both water and hills as much as you want. These trails provide you an opportunity to bike almost endlessly.  The trail over Dumbarton bridge is the protected trail runs on the side of Highway 84 and there is a point from where you can see the three downtowns - San Jose, San Francisco and Oakland. And above all, you can literally see the curvature of the earth. You can not reach this point any other way then a bike, it is just too far to walk and it is on a bridge, so, you are not allowed to stop if you are driving.

It is a perfect opportunity to break the daily system of life and just not use any thing that will be harmful to environment. It is a really green day and I am going the green way ...
