Yo Mama!!!!!!!!

Saturday, May 1st, 2010

You talkin' about my Mama?!?!

One of my favorite org’s Sustainable Harvest is offering a great Mother’s Day gift… For yo Mama and another person’s Mama!!

“When you give a Gift of Hope, we send your recipient a beautiful, specially-designed notecard, and your support provides farming families in Central America with the tools and training they need to preserve the environment while improving their standard of living. For a limited time, when you order a Gift of Hope valued at $45 or more in honor of Mother’s Day, we will send a free, hand-made Honduran doll. Please order by Sunday, May 2.”

…………… Hey, it’s better than that crappy doily or hand made sea shell picture frame you were going to get her!

Stay Organic

sosHelp preserve organic integrity…

A couple of clicks makes a huge difference. Come on! Dooo it!

Along the same vein as the post below about greenwashing… every one’s trying to get their dirty hands on organic labels. The organic symbol is supposed to show us good from evil – but with ever varying definitions of organic, it’s been convoluted to say the least. Click above to do your part on keeping organic labeling Organic!

Greenwashing… and I don’t mean cleaning your veggies!

climatewash-greenwash-2-0-s

Greenwashing is used everyday by thousands of companies, and is pretty easy to spot if you have your eyes open. For example, do you really think Shell oil company is “sustainable”?

Oil we take from the earth = Sustainable?

Hmm. Not so much.

Or… Do you really think Monsanto’s (THE INVENTORS OF AGENT ORANGE AND ROUNDUP AND A SLEW OF OTHER DEADLY PRODUCTS) roundup ready soybeans are going to feed the world and end hunger?

Hmm. Eww and Not so much.

Especially since third world countries are rejecting them! Saying they are unsafe!

I.E. – people who are starving say they do not want those dirty ass soybeans!

How can you keep an eye out and try to avoid being scammed by greenwashing yourself… bookmark these sites and check them out from time to time. I know, I know they are not as exciting as Perez Hilton, but hey information can be just as addicting as the latest picture of Spidey!
