Its festive season! This means excited cookie baking and decorating and gleefully embracing the music you would never listen to for the other 11 months of the year. And it means stressed gift shopping. Each year we buy gifts for the people we care about. However, it is often hard to find the perfect gift….
Hello lovely people!It is time for another Nature Care Challenge. One of the best ways to preserve nature, is to limit our consumption of stuff. Since we learned about Shop Stop already, where we ask ourselves whether we really need something pre-purchase, I think we can take it a step further: What if we do…
Ugh! I had a technical fail and never realized this Post didn’t upload when I told it to, just before hastily closing my laptop. So this one is a little belated. But on the plus side, now I can add pictures of my latest protest adventures during a pandemic. Times are crazy and the destruction…
Dare I say it? Is summer over? Is it time to go back to work? Well, in these times, who knows! Whatever the circumstances, getting to work on fixing the planet is never a bad way to spend your time. And this month’s challenge is VERY simple and so satisfying. This month, I challenge you…

I just got the best news on my e-mail feed! China has taken pangolin scales off their list of approved ingredients for traditional medicine. I love pangolins! They are right up there in my top 3 favourite weirdos. They are little termite eating creatures covered in scales from head to toe, with long sticky tongues…
Guys, lets just cut the excuses. There is no reason to buy bottled water. The world currently produces approximately 1 million plastic bottles per minute. Only a fraction ever make it into recycling and to make it worse, recycling is mostly a myth. You see, while plastic can be recycled, it can never be recycled…
Happy menstrual hygiene day! What a perfect opportunity to write a post on my nature-loving-lifestyle blog. Because everybody knows of the amount of unnecessary trash that comes with menstrual hygiene.
