Water Filtration Systems for the Home and Why We NEED Them

By Tiffany Leave a Comment

The water industry is a booming business right now. Portable water pitchers, under the sink water filtration systems, and bottled water are abundant. Because it is such a big business it can be easy to kind of push the marketing hype out of our minds and stick to our tap water. We have cheap accessible water flowing into our homes every day so it can be downright annoying to constantly hear how we need to buy more "stuff" or buy bottled water to ensure we have clean and safe water to drink. Add … [Read more...]

Baby Shampoo – Still Unsafe for Babies?

By Tiffany 11 Comments

It was about two years ago now that I wrote about the issue of toxic bubble bath. That post was spurred by a Campaign for Safe Cosmetics report that highlighted known carcinogens in baby bath products and Johnson & Johnson appeared on the report several times. This just happened to coincide with a blogger campaign the company was running, trying to get mom bloggers to endorse their products. I was pretty livid at the time and while I hoped that J&J would clean up their act, I highly … [Read more...]

The Low Down on Antibacterial Cleaners

For many families antibacterial cleaners are a fixture in the home, whether they are in the form of hand soap or cleaners for your kitchen and bathroom. We are bombarded by marketing hype about the need for these products in sterilizing our homes and protecting them from harmful germs. But are these cleaners actually doing more harm than good? Why Do We Need to Kill Bacteria? No one likes the idea of bacteria and germs laying in wait around our homes. We've been conditioned to think they are … [Read more...]

Take Action – Tell the FDA No Thanks!

By Tiffany 7 Comments

The FDA in their infinite wisdom ignorance, has declared BPA safe. They always put special interests like plastic companies and product manufacturing corporations before the health of people. Lucky for us, many consumers have spoken out so loudly against BPA that many companies have started labeling their products BPA Free so that consumers can decide. At the very least we can exercise our right to choose healthier products, despite rulings such as these. For BPA free products check out these … [Read more...]

Green School Supplies Letter to Teacher

By Tiffany 28 Comments

When I wrote about a Green Back to School I received a question about how to handle supply lists you get from the school with specific product requests that are not so green. I am all too familiar with these lists and yes many do request specific products or brands that are not so great for green people. So I have written a sample letter you can send along with your student to explain why you have deviated from their recommendations. Feel free to use it, edit at will,  and it pass it along to … [Read more...]
