If A 7 yr old Can Do It...


Hi Everyone...

What an AWESOME little boy! Ryan is 7 yrs old and he has been recycling since he was 3 years old. He has earned 25K for college so far and sells t-shirts to help the marine mammals. I take my recycling to Target! They take plastic, glass, plastic bags, cardboard/paper, metal, and cell phone batteries. Just set up some containers and then when you get to Target park by the carts and you just wheel them in! :-) Of course Target does not pay for any of it but if you can't find someplace that pays take it to Target! :-)

Solar Goes Green!














Hi Everyone...

Tesla's has created new Solar shingles, which in time are likely to come down in price and now colored solar panels are getting more & more efficient. Currently they are about 10% less efficient than traditional solar panels. We are getting closer & closer to a time where people will not have to be convinced but rather it will just be the norm.

Brits Soaring with Wind













Hi Everyone...

In 2016, Britain had more of its energy produced by Wind than by Coal (Coal 9.2% & Wind 11.5%)! By 2025, Britain plans to have all their Coal Stations closed. They also had a reduction of CO2 of 20% in 2016! The UK has the World's largest WindTurbines and the World's largest Wind Farm floating in the ocean.

Would You Rent Baby Clothes?













Hi Everyone...

Now I know many of you may keep your baby clothes for your future kids and that is great, but what happens to their clothes when they may be the last one to wear them? And what if they are fairly new clothes? Do you give them to relatives? Do you sell in a garage sale? Do you sell in a resale shop? How many new clothes have you bought or has someone else bought your children?

In Copenhagen Vigga & Peter Svensson came up with the idea of renting baby clothes, their company is  called Vigga. Now I'm sure you have heard of those services where you can rent or buy boxes of clothes...like Stitch Fix and others, well this is the idea but for babies. Check out this video and hear Vigga talk about her Sustainable Baby Clothes business.  It is a great idea, as this video states, "globally only 20% of clothing is recycled or reused." The price is pretty awesome too with 16 items costing $55. What do you think, would you rent baby clothes? Do you know of any companies like this in the US?
