I saw this extremely interesting note on Brave New Leaf Blog - cereal packaging that’s less wasteful. Now this is a tiny thing in and of itself - but what a super trend to encourage. Let’s keep an eye on this!
And Green Blogs can be just plain interesting, anyway. Check these out:Ethical Weddings Blog

These best friends are very special ones - they’re our fuzzy critter family members, our cats and dogs and animal buds.
I’m not going to preach here. Sometimes it’s hard for me to even visit their site - because they need us so much. But…sometimes we can do just a little.
It all helps. Really. Go visit them:
Just a little help, maybe?

You know what I think is funny? Women, especially, tend to really not like bugs. I don’t. I’ve tried to cure myself of this. Bugs are people too, well, I mean they are to themselves. They have as much right to hang around as any of us. But, well, let’s just say I’m working on it.So what I think is funny is that when it comes to decorating jewelry, bugs are considered kind of cute. I’m not sure why. Charms with little bugs are very popular.II even feel that way sometimes myself. Well - let’s not get carried away. Even a charm of a bee, for example, is not charming to me. And we won’t even talk about cicadas. But ladybugs? dragonflies? They’re - well, they’re appealing little critters.

For instance - these antiqued brass dragonfly charms (the charms are store-bought, I just add the patina) from my Etsy shop. Yes, I offer them for sale, so I’m biased. But even if I didn’t - I think they’re kinda cute.
