Welcome to the heart the earth blog! Here, I hope to create a source for interesting and innovative ideas related to current environmental issues and to provide easy ways to green your everyday life. I am always reading about and trying out new ways to green my own life and often come across interesting articles and products that I would like to share. Now I have a place to do so. Please feel free to add comments to this or any future posts... I welcome your input and insight!
To start us off, a video I came across today. This clip is an entertaining, yet informative, reminder about the importance of eating local. The video was made for Canada, however, I can assure you that the problem is many times worse in the States. So, everytime they refer to Canada, replace that in your head with the US and multipy the statistic by 5 (not exactly scientific, but you get the idea).
I am an aspiring green thumb with a background in Environmental Studies and Horticulture. In my free time, I often find myself reading about environmental issues, eco-friendly products, and ways to green my daily life, and now I have a space to share my findings with all of you! I love that the term hippy-chic exists and (however cliched), that green is the new black. I just hope that the trend sticks and that the new new black doesn't come along too quickly... And yes, from time to time, I do also enjoy long walks on the beach.
