My blogs
| Introduction | Hi, my name is Sara and until recently, I was a mindless consumer of disposable products. My habits were destroying the earth. I hit rock-bottom when I got in my car and saw that I had 25 used plastic water bottles all over the floor (yes, need to clean the car more often). I realized I had become powerless over this addiction: unconsciously grabbing a water bottle every day at work, just because they are there. That same day I happened to read a report warning that if we continue our current rate of consumption of natural resources, by the year 2050 we will need 2 other planets' worth of trees, air, minerals, and other resources to fuel our lifestyle (our increasingly disposable lifestyle of single-use Swiffers, doubled Starbucks cups and disposable furniture wipes.) Something struck a chord with me that day, and I don't know about you, but I'd rather have nature working as it is meant to and continued life on the planet than plastic forks and handi-wipes. How about you? |
