Other questions I get are: Do I need to buy everything organic, food, cleaning products, clothes, personal care and skin care products? Are you vegan? Do I have to throw everything away and start from scratch? Where do I start? It gets expensive. What does it mean by going organic? Lets start with my definition of going organic and living an organic lifestyle. To me going organic is more than the food I eat.

People with an overstock of medicine end up throwing away high-priced or expired medicines. The drugs are flushed down the toilet, placed in trash cans, or abandoned to collect dust. Instead of contaminating water or mixing the 'medicines' ingredients with the trash, one must return the pills to a pharmacy. Drugs flushed down the toilet cause grave effects to the environment.

For most industrial companies, using a heavy-duty industrial degreaser is a matter of necessity and not choice. But companies do have a choice in whether they use a cleaning degreasing that is environmentally friendly or environmentally toxic. At a time when "going green" is taken as seriously as cost cutting, most companies would like to exchange their hazardous cleaning solutions for non-hazardous solutions, if only it was financially beneficial to do so. In truth, companies do have financial reasons to switch from toxic cleaners to non-toxic ones. But many companies remain unaware of these reasons due to their long dependence on particular cleaners that play critical roles. Below, we list three...

Whistleblower is a general term used to refer to anyone who calls attention to violations of any law by his or her employer. Because the government wants to encourage employees to come forward with this information, it has created protections for whistleblowers that are designed to prevent retaliation against them by their employers. Types of Whistleblowers There are two major categories of whistleblowers, distinguished by the type of complaint they bring against their employer. One type of whistleblower case, known as a qui tam case, is reported under the Federal False Claims Act (FFCA), while the other is filed under a number of different laws, all of which are administered and protected by the...

The federal whistleblower law exists to protect employees when they "blow the whistle" on their employer in instances where employer breaks the law or violate employees' inherent rights.

The movement to change from our tried and true "normal" incandescent light bulbs to the newer more efficient form of compact fluorescent light bulbs is in full swing. There is a rallying cry out there that if we (we as in all the people on the planet) can make the move to the new style of blub it would represent a massive savings in overall energy use. The numbers are compelling to be sure. According to the U.S. Department of Energy the Compact Fluorescent Lamps (CFLs) can last ten times longer, use 75% less electricity and produce 90% less heat than the standard light bulbs (known as incandescent lamps). So, in general, using CFL's will reduce the amount of waste in our landfills and reduce the...

fluorescent lamps (CFLs) are the light bulb of choice for saving energy and money on utilities. No one doubts that CFLs use three or four times less energy than traditional bulbs, and many people have significantly reduced their electric bills by switching to them. But there are seven situations where CFLs might not be the best option. 1. CFLs Could INCREASE Mercury Emissions One of the biggest reasons to buy CFLs is that by using less energy, they reduce mercury emissions from power plants. However, CFLs contain small amounts of mercury, a highly toxic poison. By law, used CFLs must either be recycled or taken to an approved hazardous waste disposal site. Unfortunately, about three out of four CFLs...
