Disintegrating Clarks Shoes Have you had this happen?

Have you had this happen?

Built in obsolescence or just crummy materials?

You may not agree, but I think building quality products to last is part of sustainability.

The Wonderful Doggie Doo Drain Is Back!

Tue, 02/26/2013 - 20:43 — carol

Hurray for the Doggie Doo Drain, the easiest and safest way to discard dog (and cat) poo! I thought the company had shut its doors and we’d be without the wondrous DDD, and then, at the end of January I received an email, and it is back!

This dog poop solution is inexpensive, just screws into place, needs no care and attention except, perhaps, a little water, and your pet poop is treated in a safe, green way. Use for one small animal, or multiple large dogs!

Pet Food Delivered to Your Door

The quality dry dog and cat food my animals eat is a great price and is delivered! Doesn't get much easier and it's green.

The manufacturers use local farms to source their ingredients wherever possible. Great idea!

Shipping Container Shopping Village in New Zealand

Christchurch, New Zealand, devastated by earthquakes in 2010 and 2011, plans to rebuild as a green, sustainable, beautiful city. In the meantime, see what they’ve come up with - very cool!

My sister and her family all live in Christchurch and in December 2011 gave me a tour of the ravaged city center. Yes, you are right, it is mid-summer down-under. Even paradise has cold snaps.
