What are 5 good and long paragraphs for Green living?

May 5, 2010 - 6:30 pm No Comments

Hi,My name Fa’Niya I am 18 years old.I have 2 brothers and 1 sister.Today we are having an writing test on Green living.I need ideas.My teacher told me to sign up for Yahoo mail yesterday so i did.She told me to go on yahoo answers and ask a question any good ideas I don’t need crazy stuff.

I don’t think she meant “Go on yahoo answers and get them to write a paper for you.” I think she meant “Ask for their opinion on an issue.” So, basically, some key things to green living are:
1. Reducing or eliminating animal product use
2. Buying local as much as one can.
3. Use public transportation, walking or a bike instead of driving.
4. Reduce consumption in general. Buy less and when you buy, buy used.
5. Boycotting companies that harm the environment.

What are some magazines related to "green living" in Chicago-land area?

March 30, 2010 - 6:30 pm No Comments

Looking for magazines produced in the Chicago-land area catering to "green living" ideas & products. Also looking for a magazine that publishes any "green" fairs, shows, product or business promotion. (networking platforms/websites)

I don’t know about Chicago-land specifically, but if you want to know about "green living" in general, I would recommend looking at The Scientific American.

Living Green Salad Recipe with a
Delicious Orange Citrus-Avocado-Fennel
Low Calorie Salad Dressing Recipe
?

* I n g r e d i e n t s *
For the DRESSING:
— 2 Oranges
— 1 bunch of Fennel leaves
— 1 Avocado, roughly chopped

For the SALAD:
— 1 head of Romaine Lettuce
— 1 head of Celery
— 2 Pears
— 1 Cucumber*
— 2-4 Oranges (enough to make about 2 cups worth of orange segments)
*unpeeled if organic, peeled if inorganic

* P r e p a r a t i o n *
— 1) For the dressing, use a manual citrus juicer or a citrus hand juicer to squeeze the juice of 2 oranges into your Vita-Mix blender, or other high-powered blender of your choice. http://bit.ly/GZsuq or http://bit.ly/3OTXD9

— 2) By hand, break the fennel leaves into smaller pieces & toss them along with the roughly chopped avocado into your Vitamix blender as well.

— 3) Blend until desired consistency is reached.

— 4) For the salad, chop the romaine lettuce leaves, celery stalks, pears, orange segments & cucumber all into bite-sized pieces with a chef’s knife & toss together in a large serving bowl.

— 5) Drizzle dressing over salad or offer it on the side…enjoy!

* I n s p i r a t i o n *
— When hot, dehydrated & hungry, it feels good to make a recipe that’s full of greens, yet also delicious, satisfying & thirst-quenching! Isn’t this salad gorgeous? So light, tasty & refreshing… beautiful too! I’ve found that cutting the excess fat out of our diets helps with weight loss & regeneration, as well as for increased mental clarity & higher levels of energy.

— I might be looking on the skinny side lately, but lately I’ve been eating very low-fat as part of my own personal summer detox program. I do plan on doing some deeper healing & total regeneration, so do not be alarmed if/when I temporarily get skinnier. Krista can vouch for the fact that because of all the years I spent bodybuilding, the ‘good’ part that came from all that abuse I did to my body in the gym is that today my muscles are very quick to respond to any weight training I do. So when I re-enter a building phase again this fall and winter, you’ll literally see me gain 5 pounds of quality tissue and/or muscle in a week. Krista says that on a day-to-day basis she can literally see if I’ve gained or lost a pound, and from where (I suppose it doesn’t hurt that she sees me naked all the time because of where we live http://bit.ly/2TGi1V)

— My search for true radiant health has lead me to a low fat raw vegan diet; that’s just how it turned out. I focus on getting my energy from fruit & eating a lot of salads and greens, along with getting even more greens from juices & smoothies. But the key is that I don’t heat or cook anything I eat. I also eat a lot of high-water fruits & vegetables. I don’t eat any dehydrated foods at this time & the densest foods I currently eat are only avocados & thai young coconuts.

— Remember to take care of yourself! Focus on eating & drinking lots of low-fat, high-water fruits & vegetables! If you’re a beginner, do not stress out! Just continually get more of the junk out of your diet & steadily replace it with more good stuff, as you are worth it! And keep on coming back to this channel for some deeper and deeper healing!

Why is it that mostly Europeans and Australians are asking questions in the "Green Living" category?

February 26, 2010 - 12:35 pm No Comments

I can tell by the talk of "rubbish" and "trash taxes" and "light bulb certificates", that most of the people in the "Green Living" section of "Yahoo! Answers" who are trying to live a greener life are not Americans. Where are my fellow Americans, and why are we so slow to start making green living a priority? Why do other parts of the planet "get it", but the most wasteful part of the planet does not??

Ouch! Some of these people are really nasty against their fellow Americans.

Americans are newer to the green game than our counterparts.

But I think the biggest thing is that many of us are not going outside of our easy zone, our comfort zone, to live green.

Many people here recycle, because it goes out with the trash (easy).
Many people have CFBs because they sell them at Ikea, Walmart and Target (easy) and they save $.
Lots of people buy clothes at vintage/thrift stores because they want a huge wardrobe cheap (easy)!
Most people take showers because they’re quicker (easy).
Lots of us are buying hybrid cars because they save on gas (easy).
Lots of us are combining errands to save on gas (easy)

Composting, going vegetarian, driving less, all of these things are much harder to do and take more research. Even switching from a car to a motorcycle takes a bit of work.

Americans aren’t stupid, we’re just a bit lazy and sometimes need a bit of prodding to get ourselves in gear. We’re going to get there though!

American consumerism will push through the green movement. Why? We buy a lot more! Simply put, we speak with our wallets and that’s what’s going to make the green movement succeed – when people buy green without even thinking about it, then the second push to get even greener will happen.
