Haley — Thu, 04 Mar 2010 13:00:25 +0000

Meryl Streep prides herself on being both an actress and environmental activist. Meryl has been an activist and concernist before most of us were even thinking of recycling, BPA, and pesticides. According to her friend and long time environmentalist herself, Wendy Gordon, Meryl first began to take action in 1988 when a hole in the [...]

Guest Post by Lori Stewart – http://greengigs.blogspot.com/ I am a SAHM, former science teacher, current freelancer, and work-in-progress green being. One day last summer, as I was filling my none-to-eco-friendly minivan with $4.34 per gallon gas, while thinking about the load of laundry I had to get off the clothesline before it rained, and listening [...]

Guest Post by Patricia Wooster http://www.projectorganiceating.com Let’s face it…..the economy is in bad….bad shape. The house I bought 2 years ago is worth 25% less today, my husband and I spend $300 a month more in gas, and the stock market is shrinking our retirement account daily. It’s time for us to re-evaluate our finances [...]

What does organic, romantic and bathtime have in common?

greenandcleanmom — Thu, 30 Oct 2008 12:00:18 +0000

Bathing my children, it’s a nightly routine. It’s calming for the children and for me, I like to have the children smelling clean. Sorry, I just do. I always took a bath nightly and so do my children. They bath together and we don’t use very much water, so were conserving. Using a non-toxic, gentle [...]

Eco-Driving a Ford Flex

Is a Ford Flex the most eco-friendly car on the market? No. It isn’t a Hybrid but you might have read my thoughts on hybrids and wondering how green they really are. It does have the best gas mileage for a 7 passenger vehicle on the market right now, which is better then driving a [...]

Chemicals and Children

Seventh Generation recently hosted a evening with Dr. Greene (love him) and the Environmental Working Group (love, love, love them) in Boston to talk about chemicals and our children. Talk about an important discussion. I sure wish I could have been there. No worries, I can watch the full WebCast and get the low down [...]

What’s For Dinner?

greenandcleanmom — Fri, 24 Oct 2008 12:00:09 +0000

While I enjoy cooking, I must admit that I find it hard to come up with a healthy, locally grown, appetizing dinner every night. The pressure! And add to that three kids who have different tastes, a super healthy husband, and me working too… So what is a girl to do?? I have some tried [...]

Ford: A Quiet Shade of Green

greenandcleanmom — Wed, 22 Oct 2008 11:30:26 +0000

I currently have a General Motors vehicle and have noticed on all the major “green” websites or high traffic sites with ad agencies, there are GM ads for their Hybrid SUV. I never see Ford anywhere and this made me wonder. Is Ford not a “going green” company? GM is all about the bloggers and [...]
