This is my selection of some of the best blog posts out there in the ecosphere...Yesterday will be one of the most memorable days of my life...how exciting to see Obama's acceptance speech....you knew you were watching something magic. There are so many reasons reasons to celebrate - but I had a special toast to the environment. As the Environmental Defense Fund said:
"This election offers us the greatest opportunity we have ever had to change course on global warming"
Read Maura Judkis's article from the Huffington Post about what leading environmental groups had to say. "Environmental Groups Congratulate Obama on Victory".
On a lighter note, from Eco-Chick, one of my favourite girly girl green blogs, 'Are Aveda Products as Safe and Natural as they Claim?'. I was once a diehard Aveda fan until I learned that along with natural products there were also a lot of chemicals, including parabens. This was one of my first lessons about the need to read labels - carefully (this is not so easy now that I have to wear reading glasses, but lets not go there).
'Stella honoured as Green Designer of the Year'. From ecorazzi (the latest in green gossip), a glam green girl's Who (or People if you are in the US) magazine. Here is what Stella has to say about eco accessories.
“I do want to show that accessories can be made from a more ethical viewpoint—and be sexy and cool. The myth of leather—that every bag and shoe needs to be made from it—needs to be broken down. It’s a bit caveman."
The yummiest muffins I have had for a while from my good friend Suzie at Munch and Nibble...Orange Blueberry Muffins....forget about buying muffins and all that packaging...these are so easy and delightfully green especially if you use organic ingredients...
Hope you enjoy. xxx
