We are seeing more and more in the news about rising E.Coli outbreaks, especially among romaine lettuce. Eating leafy greens is important for our health, but many people are becoming wary because sometimes it feels the risk isn't worth it. Combine the outbreaks with news of the FDA doing limited food inspections during the government shut down (which has thankfully been resolved for now), and people have the right to be concerned. Is it best to avoid eating raw vegetables, especially leafy greens like romaine? Or can we do something to protect ourselves from potentially deadly pathogens on our [...]

By |2021-01-21T19:32:36+00:00January 21, 2019|Green Home, Reducing Waste|

Cloth diapers seem like the obvious choice for greener parenting. But in the last 10 years, there have been several articles written claiming that it isn't the case. In the disposable diapers vs cloth diapers debate, there are a lot of contradictory studies which makes it hard to know for sure.

When you read and analyze the studies, it can be hard to know who to [...]

I often get the opportunity to talk about why I love cloth diapers with friends and family. As we discuss our children, it often comes up naturally in conversation. While I never intend to imply that I think everyone should use cloth diapers and I don't judge any family who doesn't, I think sometimes people start to feel a bit defensive about their choice to use disposables in front of me. I often hear, "That's awesome that you do that. I thought about it, but we are just too busy." I also get told things like, "We just don't [...]

Plastic pollution is a huge problem. 300 million tons of plastic is produced per year, and HALF of that is for single use products, like water bottles, plastic wrap, Ziploc bags, straws, product packaging, etc. That's a lot of plastic.
