Dan Butler, a gym teacher and football coach in Florida, is driving around in a diesel truck that he converted to run on vegetable oil. Dan says, he is just an average joe who is doing his small part for the planet.
The Ford 350 truck is only refilled every few weeks and he gets his recycled vegetable oil for free from local pizza joints and other neighborhood restaurants. He has even motivated some reluctant friends who now want to also try out

The Natural Death Centre in London, shows that 89% of coffins used every year, are made from chipbaord covered with laminate, which can take many years to biodegrade. Living a green and eco friendly life means examining the various areas in our lives that could be more earth friendly and more sustainable. But what happens when we pass on, how do we carry our values with us, till the very end?

Chris over at Lighter Footstep wrote a great piece on why folks should consider animal-friendly clothing and footwear. Animal livestock operations and farming practices contribute a great deal of greenhouse gas emissions on our dear planet, more so than our automobiles.
As Chris points out it has become mainstream for manufacturers to create clothing and footwear that is not leather-based. There are many good durable, strong, healthy, clean alte

We Americans love our pets and treat them like part of the family. So it makes sense to want to green this area of our lives as well. Pets bring us daily joy and laughter and we love to shower them with all kinds of treats, but as any pet owner will tell you, the rascals can get into fine messes as well, like scratching things they ought not. It is natural for cats to want to stretch their paws and nails and many will do so at the nearest sofa or
