Parking Your Car – What Is the Environmental Impact?

By Tiffany 6 Comments

When we think about cars on the road and their environmental and economic impact we typically think of certain hot button topics. We might think of fuel economy or alternative methods of powering our vehicles. We might think of the impact of factories and cars globally and locally. We might think about pollution from manufacturing and from consumption (driving). We might think about the life cycle of the vehicles we purchase or whether to buy new or used.

Bringing Up Bebe – The Wisdom of French Parenting

By Tiffany 14 Comments

I admire attachment parenting philosophy quite a bit and that is primarily what guided me when my babes were little. I have mentioned in the past though that my endeavor to be a good, attached parent kind of lead me to a place were I was lost, frazzled, and on the verge of a divorce.

Shopping for World Change

By Tiffany 8 Comments

Hot on the heels of a post about minimalism, I am posting about the benefits of ethical shopping. Aren't the two mutually exclusive? I don' think so. We have so many problems globally and nationally that are a direct result of addiction to consumption. We are literally spending ourselves into a deeper, darker hole every year. Deciding to go minimalist is a wonderful step in combating this issue because it allows us to take a time out and evaluate what our values are. Once we see that "things" … [Read more...]
