ABOUT OUR SITE
“Indigenous people around the world, before they made a major decision, used to sit around and ask themselves, ‘How does this decision affect our people seven generations ahead?’ Today, major decisions — in the developed world — major decisions involving millions of dollars, and millions of people, are often based on, “How will this affect the next shareholders’ meeting?'” Dr. Jane Goodall

Our Philosophy
Our site is about the importance of natural living. Unfortunately, pollution is all around us. Air pollution travels across continents and industrial waste seeps into residential drinking water. Toxic chemicals are in our air, water, and land. They are also in many products sold at the supermarket. When we bring home a bag full of canned or bottled toxic cleaning supplies, our homes become polluted. Processed food and its packaging contain chemicals. As a result, when we eat processed food our bodies become polluted. If food and household products containing hazardous chemicals were not sold, supermarkets would be the size of convenience stores.
Unprocessed or whole foods occupy a small space in most grocery stores. If products that are packaged, processed, or toxic were not manufactured, transported, and discarded, it would significantly reduce our carbon footprint. The food and chemical corporations want consumers to focus on single use plastic bags and bottled water. But what about other single use products, such as bottled drinks, bagged snacks, microwave meals, or canned goods? What about supermarket cleaning aisles stocked with canned, boxed, and bottled chemicals? What about plastic bags, cling wraps, disposable utensils, tin foil, or single use paper products? There is an alternative.
Natural living is healthy for people and for the planet. It can be easy and inexpensive to reduce our reliance on packaged, processed, and toxic products. The simple changes we make can make a world of difference for us, and all the difference for our world!
