Seventh Generation!!!
Welcome to the Wonderful World of Never Buying Anything Bad For The Earth Ever Again!! (p.s. there are tons of companies out there now that are non-harmful to our environment and earth. Seventh Generation is the top of the pops now, but some are a bit cheaper if you have a budget).
Now the best part is that it is SO Easy to get! Your blog task it to click the two following picture links and check out where you can get these products. I think Wal-Mart has them too, but Wal-Mart is kinda against everything this blog stands for and squishes all the little companies that make things like Seventh Generation happen in the first place. Amazon even sells it! Shipping is bad bad for the enviro, but if you buy a lot in bulk it is okay :) For example, you can order 6 laundry detergents for only $32 on Amazon, CRAZY! So, hey, you could order all you Seventh Generation products for six months and only shop twice a year!!! Anyway, please click, read up, and no more Tide! If you want to get to the Seventh Gerneration site just click any of the logos on this page, check it out its fun there's tons you can do on their website :)

What is your Carbon Footprint???
What is Your Carbon Footprint???
Here is a really interesting website where you can calculate your carbon footprint. You may have done it before, but try it again and look closely at what the things are that are increasing your footprint. Things like your car are an obvious one. But things like buying locally are much more important than you'd believe. Don't worry too too much if you don't get your "house" calculations accurate.
Try entering in your calculations as they were 3 years ago. It's crazy and really optimistically inspiring :) Once you have your Carbon footprint number, write it down and also write down one or two things you can work on to lower it closer to the ideal world target :)
Here is my footprint. I really need to ditch the car. Anyway Have Fun!!!! :)

November: Save This Animal!
Hello, my followers! Thank you for visiting once again. I updated something really cool and awesome this month. It is called "Save This Animal!" Section. I am going to add loving animals that are endangered every month and talk about them. How cute is that? Also I am going to add a link that can save these animals from being endangered! Sweet! So let's start!

Endangered Animal: ChinchillasBy Danny Kim
Chinchillas are the cutest thing you'll ever see in your life. Seriously. I mean, just look at them!I If you don't think they are cute, then something is wrong with you! How adorable can they be, seriously? But you know what? People make FUR COATS out of these cutest things in the entire world. How sad. :( People (we) kill them and make soft and fuzzy warm winter coats! What we need to do is how to figure things out and save this cutest creature in South America!!!!! Here are some facts about Chinchillas!
-Size: Small and Squirrel-like (adorable)
-Color: Gray with mix of white
-Description: Large Ears and Bushy Tails (aww! :))
-Fun Facts:
-Chinchillas are nocturnal.
-Chinchillas have more than 50 hairs from a single follicle. (so they are very soft)
-Humans have one hair from each follicle.
-Chinchillas grow in South America, especially in Chili. (yummy!)
-ALSO if you are allergic to dogs, cats, horses, snakes, scorpions, etc, then don't you ever worry!! because Chinchillas are animal friendly! And they are allergen-free.
Why do we need to save this animal?
HELLO! People make fur coats out of Chinchillas! How Cruella de Vil of them! Anyways, you can check out this website called Wild Chinchillas and they will tell you everything and more about this cute creature. Their goal is to help these chinchillas from being extinct. They ask for donations and volunteer workers. Cool website just to check it out.
We all know that many MANY celebrities wear fur coats and buy crocodile handbags. Yes, they are evil and you should never love any of them. I picked out a famous celebrity who was photographed wearing A CHINCHILLA FUR COAT! UGH! SHAME ON YOU! So now I am going to arrest her. I am a FASHION POLICE! FASHION POLICE FOR ANIMAL CRUELTY!
Madonna
Here's a sad woman for you all. I mean, the woman is going through divorce! No wonder her husband left her. BECAUSE SHE KEEPS BUYING FUR COATS. Madonna does good things for the world; she goes to Africa and feed children who are dying. But look how hideous she looks in this picture? The woman is getting old and she needs to stop trying so hard to look young. Wearing fur makes her look ugly. If she loves her African babies so much then why can't she save her money and love little cute chinchillas? How thoughtless of her. She's done in my book. Fashion Police is on their way!! wee-young-wee-young-wee-young-wee-young!
BYE EVERYONE! Have a wonderful day, night, afternoon, whatever.

FOR YOU TO PRINT: Animal Testing Info
Okay :) So I am uploading 2 things:
1) A white copy of the BAD products so print off please, put it up, advertise it wherever you can (send one to your mom or dad or grandma or siblings :) )
2) A sheet with smaller versions. Print it 8.5 x 11 (normal size paper) and cut it out so you can take it everywhere with you :)
What is most important is to just check the back of every product and make sure they don't have companies like "Proctor & Gamble, Colgate-Palmolive, Church & Dwight or Johnson & Johnson. Believe it or not there really are products out there you can buy: like Aquafresh and Tums are made by GlaxoSmithKline........ACT Mouthwash is made by Chattem. Both of these companies are OK :) So just check the back and please save these two files (the images) and print them off! :)
