From: redwood-outdoor.blogspot.com

Humanity exists within an intricate web of biological/energetic relationships. Over time, this web has evolved seemingly infinite biological expressions on the earth from landscapes to homosapiens.1 Where forestland develops, the most evolved landscapes are the old-growth forests. At the dawn of history, these all-age forests covered half of the earth’s land surface outside of the arctic regions. Since then, over 40% of this forest has been converted to human use or turned into desert.

Instead of mining for new gold products, Green Box™ encourages the reuse of jewelry items to create new pieces. When you look at a piece of jewelry, do you stop to consider what it took to create it? The chemicals, the environmental disruption as well as the potential long-term effects of open mining leave scars on our planet that do not justify the process, not to mention that eventually no more gold resources will be left to mankind. Instead of creating jewelry with newly ... Read Full Story

From: wemonade.com

Many people say that the tap water all over the world it is not safe for drinking. They I right. Research studies conducted all over the world show that the water contains harmful chemicals. Even in the major cities in the States the water can not be drank safely. I had to reconsider my option of drinking tap water. It is not safe. Then I did a market study and saw the prices on the water. I was scared when I saw the result. A family that buys bottled water to drink spends around 3000 dollars a year just for that. I decided to ... Read Full Story
