Spring 'Greening' Around the House
2008-03-17 17:49:00 Practically everywhere you look around the house, there's a way to be greener. From improving indoor air quality to waste reduction to energy savings, there are many easy steps you can take to ease the impact on the environment.Paint it greenEven if it's not your color of choice, green can be incorporated into your home quickly and cost-effectively with paint. The buzzwords (or initials) in paints these days are VOCs, or volatile organic compounds. Simply put, VOCs are chemicals that can sometimes be detected by odors in the air -- and that can affect a home's indoor air quality. Besides having low- to zero-VOCs, the paint you select should also be high performing. The more durable the product is, the better it covers and the less frequently you need to repaint -- which is another benefit to the environment.For example, Duration Home Interior Latex from Sherwin-Williams has a low-VOC formula that allows most smudges, spills and splatters to be easily wiped away with water or mil...

Safe, Sustainable Fish: Easy Greening
2008-01-27 17:16:00 By Melissa Breyer, Producer, Care2 Green Living By understanding the threats that the marine environment is facing we can make informed decisions about eating fish in a sustainable way?and by learning about pollution issues as they relate to the water, we can steer clear of contaminated fish. Here are the issues, then we will show you how to navigate a non-baffling trip to the fish market. SUSTAINABILITY Habitat DamageThe ocean's bottom is a vibrant and thriving ecosystem, that is until a bottom trawler or heavy dredge net crushes through leaving a rubble of the 700-year-old coral and other fragile life there. The living seafloor needs centuries to grow back, but with "trawl fleets" chugging along to keep up with our hunger for fish, the seafloor never gets a change to recuperate. This may be the single worst harm done to the marine environment by man. If you're able, find out the method by which the fish was caught. Many restaurants and stores are now listing the fishing method...

The Greening of their Litter Box
2007-12-08 18:54:00 Recently, I have been giving much thought to finding ways to improve our kittens' litter box problems. Actually, we don't really have any problems with the litter boxes...with the exception of the fact that they stink! Spike and Trouble each have their own litter box. Both boxes are cleaned regularly and they both have the dome that goes over the pan with a little entrance for the kittens to climb in and out. They domes each have a filter that can be replaced. The kittens usually do their business at the same time. It's sort of like "tandem pooping".I've been thinking of how to get that stinky smell to be not so stinky. The other day, I was in the midst of cleaning the litter boxes, when the stench was so bad that I started dry heaving, then gagging, and eventually vomiting into one of the litter boxes. Hubby came running downstairs to see if I was alright. When he realized what had happened, he started laughing uncontrollably.Me: Oh, I see. It amuses you to see your wife throwi...
