Green Brooklyn
As I read this blog, I watched the video. It was interesting to see the people of different states come together to save the world.
This video shows how in different parts of the world people turned off their lights for one hour as a move to conserve the energy. This is a desperate cry for the people of this country to help save the planet.
This was a great idea. I do not know how well it worked because I live in Brooklyn and I had no knowledge of this. I wished I had known this was going to take place so I could have participated in this event.
More bird problems in the North West…
This article saddened my heart. It’s sad to know, due to the pesticide polychlorinated biphenyl that humans use, baby birds are being affected. Their parents are deformed from the toxin PCB.
What humans do to the environment, affects every living creature on the face of this earth. However, this tie into my last blog, humans are dominating and manipulating this earth not looking at the bigger picture. What we do today, will shape tomorrow.
Not sticking with non-stick (Day 61)…
Of all the Going Green blogs she wrote about, I found this one to be the one I wanted to respond to. I cook all the time at home. I switched from cast iron pots and pans to Teflon because I thought they were better. After reading this blog I found out how wrong I was.
First of all I did not know that Teflon was toxic. Secondly using cast iron, form what I read, supposed to add some iron to the food as you cook it. Of course I do not know how true this is however, it sounds healthier than Teflon.
Some real environmental heroism
If everyone was on the same page as the people in the organization of “SELF,” I believe this world will heal itself quickly. Clean water and less CO2 in the air will make this world a better place to live for everyone. Their goal is not just to improve people’s health; they are also interested in their education and economic well-being as well.
This is an organization with well rounded goals. With the irrigation system they have in place for the villagers, adds a cleaner, healthier, and more economic environment for them. Being selfless they are reaching out to the rest of the world to jump on the band wagon.
How the world waste$100 billion a year

I find this article to be interesting. As an American who spends nothing on bottled water, one who rather boil the water then freeze it, I find it ironic how Americans waste gallons of water yet they will not send any fresh drinking water to those who need it most.
How selfish can Americans be? We waste water, we money, we waste food, and countless other items. Why is it that the richest country in the world can or will not send something as simple as water to areas where they need it most? WAKE UP PEOPLE!!!!!!! ONE MANS JUNK IS ANOTHER MANS TREASURE!!

There are many links I find to be helpful, and informative, it was hard to choose which one(s) to put on my blog. so I chose the ones I thought would be most helpful to others.
Thes are the links I used in addition to the links above:
cottonfieldusa - I chose this site I believe people should be more consciencious of the material their clothes are made of.
Grist's review of six eco-detergents - everyone washes clothes at some point in their lives. whether they do drop off service or they do it at home, the detergent you use is very important so I advise people to read this. I Did.....
Eco Street - this site has a lot of intersting things on it about recycleable house and the problems it causes, and how to use energy efficient lights on the street with those light up ropes you put in the freezer, people usually use them for the fourth of July and other celebrations in the street, and about eco friendly garden accessories.
The Blog I commented on was:
