LPE (Lincoln Park Expressway)

Published by Brent under lexicon, the village

The Lincoln Park Expressway (LPE) is officially Clybourn from Division to North. But, it practically extends from Ontario/Orleans, up Orleans and up Clybourn all the way to Sheffield/Willow.

The property around Larabee and Clybourn has been bought up and will be made into shops/malls. Soon lights will pop up at some point in the future signaling the end of the LPE.

Fiji Causes Global Warming

Published by Brent under the village

Trixie stop buying Fiji from 7-11 at the corner of Armitage and Sheffield. Buy the big gallon for $2 of generic water and reuse your old Fiji bottle (don’t tell your girlfriends). I want to be able to have usable coastlines in the next 30 years.

In summary, the manufacture and transport of that one kilogram bottle of Fiji water consumed 26.88 kilograms of water (7.1 gallons) .849 Kilograms of fossil fuel (one litre or .26 gal) and emitted 562 grams of Greenhouse Gases (1.2 pounds).
