"Green Hanukkah:
oil-conservation miracle inspires environmentalism

In what specific ways can Jews celebrate a green Hanukkah? Krantz suggests taking on a new environmental commitment for each day of the holiday: On the first day, change incandescent light bulbs to compact fluorescent or better yet, LED bulbs; on the second day, commit to wearing sweaters in the winter instead of turning up the heat; on the third day, plan a garden for the spring; on the fourth day, make a donation to an environmental organization; on the fifth day, disinvest your stock portfolio from fossil-fuel stocks and invest in renewable energy instead; on the sixth day, contact your collegiate alma mater, your synagogue, your local Jewish federation, and other institutions to ask them to follow your example of disinvestment and reinvestment; on the seventh day, commit to eating less meat, which is the largest contributor of greenhouse gases; on the eighth day, call your local member of Congress to advocate for climate-smart policies."
