July 31 at 3:37 AMI watched a documentary on where our plastic wastes go - to third world countries. It was heartbreaking to see children and women being exposed to such dangerous working conditions - and earning pennies per day.

July 31 at 3:31 AMI became deathly allergic to the artificial fragrances in cleaning products, so I had to learn how to make my own. Making is much less expensive, and you have control over what you are exposing your body to.
-
July 31 at 3:30 AMSustainability is the benefit to purchasing clothes made of natural fibers.
-
July 31 at 3:29 AMIf you have to use disposables, make sure they are biodegradable.
-
July 31 at 3:28 AMThe best way to advocate for the rights of others is through education, and respecting the point of view of others - even if you think they are not right.
-
July 31 at 3:26 AMThe best way to make a difference is through education.

-
July 31 at 3:24 AMEducation is always the place to start when advocating the use of an item in place of an existing one. The university where I work uses disposables - and due to cost and convenience, it will be a hard sell for them to make a switch.
