Review of Take Back The Filter

5 star rating Review of Take Back The Filter July 1, 2008 | Posted in Community, Charitable & NGOs

Take Back the Filter! For years, I used Brita water filtration systems to get the chlorine out of my tap water -- it was convenient and easy to use but I could never figure out what to do about the filters. So, I stopped using Brita entirely.

Brita has the #1 market share of pour-through filter cartridges in the U...

Review of Lush

4 star rating Review of Lush June 19, 2008 | Posted in Cosmetics & Perfume

Lush makes the cut... Ha! Get it? They cut off pieces of soap for you...

Seriously - I do like the scents of Lush products but find going into the stores to be a bit of an overwhelming experience.

Recently, I read a rave review of Lush's "Jungle" bar conditioner in a comment on someone's blog. I started off...

Review of Greywater Guerrillas

5 star rating Review of Greywater Guerrillas June 16, 2008 | Posted in Education & Training

Going Grey for the Green If you haven't heard of greywater, now is the time to start thinking about where your water goes after it comes out of the shower or faucet. From the simplest greywater recycling -- putting an empty bucket in the shower to collect water while you wait for it to get warm, to systems with plant...

Review of Carrotmob

5 star rating Review of Carrotmob June 16, 2008 | Posted in Environment and Society

Boosting Sales for Green Renovations Carrot Mob recently mobbed a Mission carryout store -- they planned ahead, of course, and the owner said that they would put 22% of the day's profits toward eco-friendly improvements. The customers were prepared to spend money -- they bought a lot of alcohol but also cleaned out the organic peanut...

Review of Organic Chocolate Covered Goji Berries by Kopali Organics

4 star rating Review of Organic Chocolate Covered Goji Berries June 12, 2008 | Posted in Food & Grocery

Expensive Pink Raisinettes... This morning I saw all of Kopali's products lined up above the bulk bins at Whole Foods so I grabbed the chocolate covered goji berries at my coworker's recommendation.

PRO: Delicious - like raisinettes but better chocolate, no dairy and no weird stuff. Very YUM. I couldn't keep my hand out...

Review of Energy Bars by Bumble Bar

5 star rating Review of Energy Bars June 10, 2008 | Posted in Food & Grocery

Bumble away! These are one of my favorite treats - I was so excited to see the Bumble Bars at discount at Green Festival in 2006, that I bought two boxes and sent one to my friend who was stationed in Iraq. She was overjoyed at this delicious treat and even ordered some from their website!

The flavors are...

Review of Dagoba Organic Chocolate

5 star rating Review of Dagoba Organic Chocolate June 9, 2008 | Posted in Food & Grocery

Choosing Dagoba is a vote for sustainability and a message to Hershey's Frederick Schilling is a passionate chocolatier -- I had an e-mail exchange with him shortly after the sale to Hershey's, and he told me that he was fully convinced that Hershey's is doing the right thing. Both Dagoba and Hershey's are part of the World Cocoa Foundation (http://www...

Review of Shampoo by Aubrey Organics

5 star rating Review of Shampoo June 5, 2008 | Posted in Hair Care

Aubrey White Camellia for shine! Aubrey Organics White Camellia is a really excellent product for my long, fine hair. I swim several times a week and rely on good shampoo to get the chlorine out, prevent overdrying and add a bit of shine to may locks.

This shampoo smells amazing -- and a little of it goes a very long way. I...
