Reducing waste through biodegradation, repurposing products and rethinking our economic infrastructures. Transportation method during high pollution in Arizona is broadcast days before notice of the events. Water distribution network is worrisome in Arizona due to drought, so conserving usage.

Sent letter to my 2 Illinois senators and 1 congressman about passing Injury and Fatality Prevention Act due to increase heat related risks.

On Sunday I planted tomatoes, jalapenos, onions and potatoes. This is my first attempt at a small garden. If all goes well, we will expand it next year.

I had collected seeds last year and let them over-winter outside in a protected container. I had some bee balm seeds that I planted in a new area where I dug up some of the lawn to extend my wildflower garden. I hope to see hundreds of buzzing bees on the new plants in a month or two!

This Earth Day, why I conserve is that others may enjoy a crisp cold morning outside among the trees. That's what I did this past weekend.

I live next to the national forest where many people come to recreate. Unfortunately, there is often trash left behind. I spend one day every month cleaning up the forest.

I love the idea of cover crops after the year's harvest is done. I will do more research into this idea to see what might be right for our latitude. I love to watch things grow at all times of the year and any cover crops that are good for the pollinators is exciting to me!

Happy Earth Day! 🌎 Celebrated by making a donate to our fundraiser. Anyone else celebrating in a fun way?

Sunday morning, early, with my husband and Elsa (our young cockerpoo) Woodthorpe Park. It was a sunny crisp morning and hardly anyone else about. It was so peaceful and beautiful, it made me feel super greatful to be able to do this and happy

I have met my personal goal of taking stock of all waste I make, not just single use plastic, and findingat least 7 replacements so that I make less waste overall. To replace swiffer handheld dusters, I bought reusable fleece ones. I go through a lot of paper towels, so I bought swedish dishcloths; one of those cloths equals 17 paper towel...
