Eco Car rentals

April 9th 2007 07:54
There are now companies that rent hybrid cars or cars that run on natural gas or biodiesel.
In America one company is called EV Rentals and has locations in California, Arizona, and Nevada. In my home town of Maui, Hawaii, we have Bio Beetle car rental
They get the same Bio diesel I use in my VW Jetta from Pacific Biodiesel, and they are also in Los Angeles as well as soon to be on the big island of Hawaii.
Check around on the internet for one in your favorite destination. Happy Travels!

Good searching

April 4th 2007 07:20
Just found this cool new search engine called GOODSEARCH
They donate a penny to your charity of choice each time you search! There is a bar where you can add your charity and verify if it's in their database, then search away!
I change my charity about every month because I have so many favorite causes!

Even Sponges!

January 21st 2007 01:22
When I needed a new sponge which I used to buy at Costco in big packs, I decided to take a look at the health food store for a more conscious product, and YES they do make a more eco-friendly sponge! It is made with 50% recycled cellulose content. They really make so many things environmentally friendly these days. The health food store is a wonderful resource for many non food items that are more sustainable. Visit your local Natural foods store for Cleaning products, Hygeine and Beauty Products, even Clothes!
If they don't have something you need ask a clerk and they can probably reccomend a website give you a company to call. Take Advantage!

Walmart...Sustainable?

December 25th 2006 01:58
I never thought I would see those two words in the same sentence! A few years back I made a vow not to ever shop at this international corporate giants' chain, just about the same time one showed up in my home town.
They are notorious for bad business practices, treating their employees terribly and stocking poorly made sweat shop produced items.
Well I just read about a gathering that was recently held called the Walmart Sustainability Milestone Meeting. That blew my mind! The article is at: Seventh Generation: Non Toxic times Newsletter

Boulder, Colorado

December 19th 2006 21:33
I just got home from a trip to Boulder, Colorado, which is a hub of eco-friendliness.
Many people in Boulder walk, ride their bike, or the bus. There are many Organic farms around Boulder, and many choices for conscious eating in town.
Another thing I love is that many places have compostable(bio-degradable) take-out food supplies:forks, spoons and containers

Holistic Dentistry

December 7th 2006 22:12
So, I haven't been to the dentist in over three years. I know I need X-rays, and some work done, but I just can't bring myself to go and purposely subject myself to more radiation. Like I'm not getting enough using this computer, using the cell phone, etc.
Just a few years ago, I started hearing about Holistic dentists. I thought to myself "what's this? Do they give us herbs instead of anethesia or something? " But actually what these dentists are known for is using Digital Imaging X-rays. Costs more for them, but so much better for us and the planet! Much less radiation to the patient, and the processing of the images doesn't use the toxic materials that convential X-rays do. So it's eco-friendly!
Also, more conscious dentists sell great products for a healthy mouth. Dental Herb Company makes great toothpaste and mouthwash that your dentist must order for you

Hi Lilla, Yes, It is very troubling the control being enforced in our "democratic" countries.
I'm not sure how much veggie oil per km, but my VW Jetta gets 45 Miles to the gallon when I put only Biodiesel in it.
Sorry, I don't know the conversion.

Hi Adele, Gaiam is so great, really quality stuff, and very organized company. I think they are at the forefront of the conscious consumerism.

These animals are such a reminder about how big the ocean is, and how many creatures call it their home, and that we must treat the ocean with the utmost respect.

I Appreciate the encouragement!

Have hardly enough time to post on my blogs, don't want to make insincere comments, don't know how to vote, trying hard to post at least every other day.
Blogging can be stressful!
