MOST PLASTIC IS NOT RECYCLED IN LA, it’s trashed, thrown into landfill with contents of black bins. Future generations will be stuck with the mountains of plastic we’re creating

Please consider alternatives:
-take your containers to a refill store, we have so many now!
-use bulk bins at bigger markets like Sprouts & Whole Foods.
-ask more stores to provide products and incentives for refilling containers.
-bring your own mesh bags for produce.
-call ahead and ask to bring your own containers to restaurants for takeout.
-keep a cup or two in your car or bag for coffee & other drinks when you’re out and about.
-look for alternatives - I now buy laundry detergent sheets that come in an envelope, no more plastic bottles! This also reduces the carbon footprint of shipping water around the country/planet - liquid detergent is so heavy b/c it is mostly water.
-if you have to buy something in plastic, look for the ones at the top of the list and avoid the ones lower down.

**There are currently no LA County Health Dept regulations that prevent any of this, so if someone claims that, gently suggest that they check their facts. I can send them info if they email me at [email protected] **

How long does it take for your shower to get hot? If yours is like most houses, probably 2 to 3 minutes - or 4.5 to 7.5 gallons of precious water down the drain! Low tech: use a bucket to collect it, water plants or fill the dog's bowl. Even easier: have a recirculating pump installed! Hot water can be at each fixture in your house in just a few seconds. Renting? Many landlords are paying for their tenants' water use, they may really interested in this!

Great article about why energy efficiency is so important for mitigating climate change- even more so than renewables or other "supply" solutions:

Much more must be done to develop energy efficient cars, buildings and domestic appliances to address climate change – according to new research from the Tyndall Centre for Climate Change Research at the University of East Anglia.

If you think an apostrophe was one of the 12 disciples of Jesus, you will never work for me. If you think a semicolon is a regular colon with an identity crisis, I will not hire you. If you scatter commas into a sentence with all the discrimination of a shotgun, you might make it to the foyer before...

We (Nyborg Sustainable Construction) recently finished a deep energy retrofit on house in Sherman Oaks and reduced the energy use by over 70%! The house is being cooled/heated by a tiny system (1600 watts) which uses the same amount of power as most hairdryers :) The owner is using the extra power he's making from his solar panels to power his new Leaf.
