    I'm a health nut, and it's almost impossible to take such good care of yourself and not make a connection to the environment. Everything we use and know in the world comes from our Environment, so we can make great choices to preserve what we have. We need to be taking as good care of our Environments as we do ourselves and our families.

    Food Reduce Animal Products
    What do you think contributes to people in North America eating more meat than in other places, and what does this say about North American values and ways of living? How do we start shifting a meat-focused food culture?

    I found out that most of my clothes do need cold water for washing so it worked out well for me.

    During my research on cleaners, and also alternative, ecofriendly, all natural cleaners, I discovered that something commonly accepted to help us, by killing germs and cleaning our home, has overlooked consequences. In other words, the chemicals in popular cleaning products can be very harmful if one is exposed to them often, they can cause illness or more serious effects. In addition, the impact on the environment has to be considered as well, producing, transporting, and disposing if these harmful chemicals doesn’t come without a price. Overall, switching to an all natural cleaner, such as those available at “Branch Basics,” would benefit your own personal health, as well as the environment.
