If you’ve ever wondered what’s toxic in your house, you’ll want to watch this home walk-through with Jane Houlihan, EWG’s Senior Vice-President for Research. She joins Jennifer Folsom, mom to 3 young boys, on an informational walk through the Folsom’s Alexandria, Virginia home.

Houlihan identifies toxic chemicals in three key rooms: the kitchen, bathroom, and laundry room. Grab a pad and paper so you’re ready to take notes!

If this short TV segment wasn’t enough for you (it wasn’t for me), check out the full 16-minute video of the toxic home walk-through - it’s worth it.

Wall Street Journal had a good article quickly examining  various promising technology and realistically looking at when they could make an impact.

Nuclear, Carbon capture, Solar, Wind, Algae biofuels, Fusion and electric cars where examined.  It is pretty clear that nothing major is going to hit in the near term.  We really need to conserve energy, put solar panels on our roofs, drive more efficient cars, and push hard on clean technology.

That sounds corny, right? It gets worse though. I almost said that as a response to somebody at a bus stop asking me if I had the time. It wasn’t without reason though, and it’s not as if absurd environmental phrases are constantly running through my head. The real reason is that I have a [...]

Beth Terry is my hero.  I have been following Beth and Fake Plastic Fish, the blog she pens for over two years.  Beth has inspired others including yours truly on how to live a plastic free life.  She makes her readers think about their own consumption with a healthy dose of plastic free alternatives to make the journey easier.

I wrote about Beth when I visited her blog for the first time.  Until that point in time, I never looked at my own plastic consumption since I recycled as much as I could.   A good beginning but I was not really looking at what my consumption was doing to the Earth.  Each plastic straw, container, and bowl was depleting our Earth’s natural resources of petroleum.

Many of our plastics including those nasty grocery bags were landing up in the ocean.  As I followed Beth, I became conscious of what I was doing.  I tried to reduce what I was using and made an effort to reuse my plastic in clever ways.

In the past, I have always marveled…

I have a consumption confession. I’ve finally jumped onto the smart-phone bandwagon after years of firmly saying I didn’t need one, didn’t want one, wouldn’t use one. Well, I did need a new phone and I’ve got to admit, I’m pretty hooked. It really is a beautiful piece of tech. Soon I had stumbled my [...]
