Why not eat your weeds? It’s organic (assuming like me one of reasons you have so many weeds is you don’t use a weed killer), it’s local, it’s seasonal, sustainable, reducing your weeds and is free!! Also easy AF, lazy gardening all the way! Today’s salad was brought to you by dandelion leaves/flowers, Cats Ear flowers, self seeding rampant sweet potato leaves (and a few roasted tubers), a lone potato from the back of the cupboard, weedy tomatoes from last season with a bit of lemon juice and herbs for flavour. Wish I knew I could eat dandelions and sweet potatoes sooner. Could have saved so much money on salads. Phil said to me, “I never thought we’d become these people” Me: what people? Phil: People who eat weeds Well neither did I, but I am loving it. 🌱✨ #eatweeds #growyourown #eatsustainable https://www.instagram.com/p/B48taEpHY_Y/?igshid=fwk5v8dcr37b

#Overfishing has become a major concern in recent decades with some organizations like @Oceana estimating that 80% of the world’s oceans are over-exploited. Fisheries can cause depletion of target and non-target species which lead to detrimental effects in marine populations and communities (Coll 2008). The good news is that eating seafood can be sustainable and you can use the power of your phone to help you figure out which types of seafood are ok to purchase or order when you’re dining out. The Monterey Bay Aquarium created the Seafood Watch app @seafoodwatch. The FREE app has a feature called Project FishMap which uses your phone GPS to load a regional guide to show restaurants serving sustainable seafood in your area! It ranks fish as: “best choice” (green), “good alternative” (yellow) or “avoid” (red). Next time you are about to have fish for a meal make sure to think twice and check to see if it is sustainable!    #sustainablefishing #eatsustainable #Seafoodwatch   Post by @teeny-travels Photo by @cressi1946 #GalapagosEvolution team or @juansharks featuring freediver @oceanramsey (at Galapagos Islands) https://www.instagram.com/p/BwYARiDhl0v/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=188sufepjacp2
