Composting at O’Maley Innovation Middle School!!! Funded by the Awesome Gloucester Foundation
Our idea is to establish a composting system in the cafeteria at O’Maley in partnership with Black Earth Haulers. Trash removal at O’Maley has gotten very expensive. In addition, many students are uninterested in eating school lunch and are just throwing it out. Our plan will reduce trash costs and provide costly compost for free as well as establishing a sustainable garden at O’Maley that will educate and feed the school, students and staff alike. The system will be one bin for each grade’s lunch with a small bucket in the kitchen for cooking scraps. Black Earth will take away our bins weekly and in return bring us compost which will benefit the school’s gardens and get everyone at the school more involved. We will be educating everyone on what is and isn’t compostable at school wide assemblies and short videos to view in homeroom (Black Earth’s bin’s also have helpful signs that inform students about what can be composted). Amazingly, many students at O’Maley didn’t even know we had a school garden. With the help of Backyard Growers, we hope to create more planting and harvestings days schoolwide providing fresh produce for everyone to enjoy. Along with Black Earth Haulers and Backyard Growers, our school chefs and faculty member Caitlin Sumner (8th grade science teacher) are on board. With the support of many, a well devised plan, and $1000 we can make this idea into a reality.Spread The GMG Love By Sharing With These Buttons:

Shelterific
So, this guy joined our family over the weekend. He couldn’t be sweeter and we are all in love.
I was trolling for a puppy for a couple of weeks as a surprise for the boys and checked the Salem Shelter and our own Cape Ann Animal Aid daily.
As a matter of timing, Minnow came from The Northeast Animal Shelter.
The first night that we had him we took a late night trip to Petco and were happy to bump into an adorable pup that had just been adopted from the Cape Ann Shelter! They shared a quick meeting of the minds before we headed for home.
Please, please visit and support our local shelters.

Community Stuff 12/9/15
North Shore’s Green Clean celebrates 10 years of Eco Lovin’ Home Scrubbin’
North Shore, Ma- Award winning environmentally conscious housecleaning company celebrates 10 years of service in January 2016. Green Clean, founded in Salem by then 22 year old Midge Lyon, has been well-revered in the community as a reliable and trustworthy company that is passionate about delivering excellence with an environment-friendly drive. They use all natural cleaning products, reusable cleaning tools and are very aware of use and waste within their operation. For the first several years, Green Clean’s service was a Salem, Ma exclusive and operated car-free. Midge and her staff geared up year-round on bicycles pulling a bike buggy crafted by one client and hand painted by another to fit a vacuum and supplies.
Now using cars to serve more clients more reliably, their commitment to the environment remains a top priority. Currently their service is limited to area’s of Boston’s North Shore.
Over the years Green Clean has provided green jobs within the community. A socially conscious company, Green Clean pays their star employees above the local average in an effort to provide rewarding, meaningful and sustainable work.
Now in its 10th year and having earned six Best of North Shore awards, Green Clean is ready to grow. They’ve been meeting with prospects and discussing the possibility of taking on a business partner and expanding service. They hope to open a couple of new locations and hire from within the communities that they serve in order to reduce driving and create green jobs in the community.
Open invite to the public to help us celebrate:
Life Alive Salem
The cafe serves wonderful organic food as well as beer and wine.
We will be raffling off some prizes, including some free house cleaning gift certificates.

Neil deGrasse Tyson Quote of the Week from Greg Bover
4 December, 2015
“The good thing about science is that it’s true whether or not you believe in it.”
Neil deGrasse Tyson (1958 – )
A New York City native and a product of its public schools, Dr. Tyson is arguably the most publicly visible scientist in the country. He was attracted to astrophysics from an early age, lecturing on the subject as early as fifteen years of age. Although scouted for Cornell by Carl Sagan, he chose Harvard University, and did post-graduate work at the University of Texas, Princeton, and Columbia before being named Director of the Hayden Planetarium in 1996. He has become the public face of the scientific perspective for many and has hosted numerous television shows, including Nova and Cosmos, (which Sagan had once hosted.) He was at the forefront of the controversial movement to classify Pluto a minor planet and has spoken widely on the relationship between spirituality and science. In great demand as a commencement speaker, Tyson holds eighteen honorary doctorates, the most recent from UMass-Amherst. Another Tyson quote: “The universe is under no obligation to make sense to you.”

Awesome Gloucester Pitch Night at O’Maley
Dear Joey,
Awesome Gloucester held its Pitch Night at the O’Maley School Library Monday night. This month we took proposals for “making Gloucester more awesome” only from students there and received eleven. Our twenty trustees, who each chip in $50, voted to choose the top four ideas, and heard them pitched at the event. Even better, the Gloucester Education Foundation generously doubled our usual kitty, so when we voted again after hearing the presentations, the top two ideas were each funded with $1000, free and clear. The top vote getters were student initiatives to establish composting of food waste at the school, and another to support activities for kids with IEP’s during movement breaks.
This was one of those fun, exciting events that gave everyone who attended hope for the future. These kids and their ideas were extremely impressive and their presentations were articulate and well thought through.
Next month we’ll be back to taking proposals from all comers at awesomegloucester.org.
Thanks,
Greg

THE CAPE ANN MUSEUM IS BRIMMING WITH FABULOUS HOLIDAY GIFTS!
Thank you to Leslie Heffron who mentioned in last week’s podcast that she had done nearly all her holiday shopping at the Cape Ann Museum. The Museum’s gift shop is simply a treasure trove of unique and special gifts for loved ones of all ages on your Christmas list.
The inspirational and beautiful Folly Cove Designers Catalogue is in its third printing! First published in 1996 in conjunction with an exhibition held at the Cape Ann Museum, the book incorporates updated information.
From the witty and wonderful art of Virginia Lee Burton comes the Cape Ann Museum’s exclusive new carry-all tote bag “Gossips.” Made of a very sturdy 100 percent cotton, with magnetic closure and zippered inside pocket.
Terrific Trivets!
The Museum is closed tomorrow, Wednesday, for the 7th Annual Women’s Luncheon, and will reopen Thursday at the usual 10am time. Open Tuesday through Sunday, the Cape Ann Museum also has a terrific schedule of events lined up for Saturday, December 12th, for the Middle Street Walk. Click here for programming. The Museum is free and open to the public all day.
