GE Mosquitoes To Be Released in Florida Keys - Again!

GE Mosquitoes To Be Released in Florida Keys – Again!

I first wrote a post on January 11, 2012 about an upcoming release of 5,000-10,000 GE (genetically engineered) mosquitoes that were to be released in Key West near the cemetery and my childhood friend’s house. The citizens rallied and the mosquitoes luckily were not released. Here it is January 11, 2015, 3 years later, and I can’t believe I am writing about it again! (more…)

The Twelve Days of a Green Christmas…First Day…

Here we are…Christmas Day and the Retailers’ 12 days of Christmas are finally over so now we can celebrate the true twelve days of Christmas! I began my “Twelve Days of a Green Christmas” in 2011 as a fun way to share ideas of being more conscious of your carbon footprint, the food you eat and the gifts you buy.

It’s Only A Label!

In one of my recent posts, It’s Your Right To Know, I talked about the importance of knowing about the ingredients in the food we eat, especially if one has an allergic reaction to a certain chemical. I am not alone in my wish to make educated choices about the foods I eat. Now, at the close of Election Day 2014, as I read the results of GMO labeling initiatives in Colorado, Hawaii and Oregon…

It's Your Right To Know!

What if you discovered you had a medical condition that resulted in severe migraine headaches every time you ate food that had, for example, MSG (monosodium glutamate) as an ingredient. It wouldn’t matter if a Doctor told you of your reaction to MSG or if you discovered it on your own. If MSG was not required to be included on a label how would you know if you ingested something that you knew…
