Environmental stability is the key and Footprints Eco Consulting’s view is that, if we cannot protect the planet on both a local scale and a global scale, then there is little else that matters.

* we waste billions of gallons of water
* our landfills are over flowing

The end of growth. Jeff Rubin joins me to talk about his new book. It has a scary title but an optimistic outlook.

First, we need to bring climate change back to the forefront of the national conversation, and second, we need to take action.

Hurricane Sandy caused immense damage across the Northeast, hitting several coastal wildlife refuges as well as many cities and towns. As we survey the damage and begin to rebuild, many are asking the question: is this the cost of climate silence? Our president and CEO has more at http://dfnd.us/YvqcSs

Rubin: Environmentalists are going to go: “Look, I’m not going to just bet our planet’s future on your economic forecast” and that’s a perfectly legitimate thing to say. But I’m saying hey, this ain’t a forecast anymore. Look around.

They certainly seem like an odd couple. Environmentalist David Suzuki, who has said conventional economics is “a form of brain damage,” is on a cross-country speaking tour with Jeff Rubin, the former chief economist of CIBC World Markets.

Eco Tip of the Week… Trade antibacterial cleaners for a homemade cleaning potion!

Not only do bacteria boost your immune system, but some bacteria can actually benefit the environment. Antibacterial ingredients, such as triclosan, have been found in 58 per cent of our streams. Mix your own cleaning potion with one part vinegar to one part water. Can’t stand your home smelling like vinegar? A few of drops of lavender or rosehip essential oil should mask the scent!

Sustainably yours,

Come on Canada, if they can do it, we surely can!

The benefits aren’t as apparent. Some short-term and fewer long-term jobs, possibly for foreign workers, and increased profits for the oil industry – including state-owned Chinese companies – are all we’re being offered in exchange for giving up our resources, interests and future, putting ecosystems at risk, and forfeiting due democratic process.

Eco Tip of the Week... Make Your Own Face Paint for Halloween!

This tip was too good not to share!

Sustainably yours,
Kimberly

The scariest thing you will see this Halloween won’t be the little ghosts and goblins knocking at your door. It will most likely be in the costume section of your nearby department or drug store.
