10 Great Green Things June 2008

1. This video on making deserts fertile.  Here they are turning a small plot of super-arid land in the Middle East into an edible garden. Thank you Fungus!  Watch the video above.

2.  Project Pedal documentary.  The 21st Century Roadtrip. Go Sista!!!

3. FallenFruit.org - I'm waiting for us to start giving trees, once they reach a certain age and maturity, long social security numbers and just legal protection.  Sad thing is, by the time we start valuing and caring for our resources appropriately, this may not be an arduous task at all.  But really I think it's a crisis of consciousness above all else that will drive us to this end...  Spread the good word!

4. Co-Op America
       It's like the green Yellow Pages.

5. BioPure.  The safest and healthiest possible way to clean.  It smells awesome!  I love it!! See the video above.

7. Visit Amphibian Ark and check out the fabulous frog ring tones!

8.  This is a great resource for finding the Socially Responsible Credit card for you.  It truly amazes me how many good things are happening in the world sometimes. 

9.  For an excellent pictoral explanation of the plastic bag problem click here.

10. Biodegradable bags that attach to the leash!  You will NEVER forget your doggie bags again.  I hate it when that happens.  I found these on eBay.  This is the style we have and I love it!  A black bone that matches the leash dispenses the biodegradable goodies. Very understated, very smart.

....or so I thought - until the dang bone dispencer thingy broke and now I forget the bags all the time again! Doh!!  I'm searching for a durable one...

They were so close.  =(
