I love 7th generation! Their products

are wonderful. We use everything from their diapers to household cleaner to their

dishwashing liquid. I even had to write them a letter to say how great their stuff

was. They actually answered me back. J Well, they also put out a newsletter. Great people… they

also share great info:

 

THE NON-TOXIC TIMES, The

Seventh Generation Newsletter

Vol. 5, No. 9 July 2004

Putting the Breast Cancer/Chlorine Connection on

Paper

A Few Thoughts from Jeffrey Hollender, President

In

the 1980's PBS television show Connections, scientist

James Burke described how seemingly disparate events were not only related, but

were also dependent on one another. He might show

viewers, for example, how a minor medieval battle was ultimately responsible

for the invention of super glue. Such strange relationships exist everywhere,

especially in the area of human health and the environment, where things that

appear unrelated quite often are anything but. Take the issue of breast cancer.

Would you believe it's connected to the kind of paper you use?

far more than any paper you might print it on. Clicking here is your

Where the Grass is

Greener: Naturally Better Lawn Care

If America loves

anything, it's a perfect lawn. There's something about a broad weed-free

expanse of well-manicured grass neatly clipped to a uniform height that

inspires even the most hardened souls among us to get all gushy with praise and

admiration. Perfect lawns, however, do not occur in nature, and creating them

at home is often a chemically-intensive effort that's neither green nor clean.

Fortunately, there are ways to make beauty grow without involving anything

ugly, and we've got more than a few ideas right here.

Are Artificial Food

Colors and Preservatives Hyperactivating Our Kids?

From

cheese curls to day-glo drinks, much of the modern food supply is laden with

colors that don't occur in nature and preservatives that keep them fresh on

their often lengthy journey from the factory to the food store and beyond. It's

no surprise that these artificial food colors and preservatives are made from

synthetic chemicals. But what is a bit of a shock are the results of a recent

study, which found that these ingredients may be causing hyperactivity in

children.

New Survey Measures

Public e-pinion

There's

a whole lot of electioneering going on out in the heartland, and to listen to

those in the running, you'd be tempted to think the only thing on the public's

mind were a few certain situations overseas and, as always, the economy here at

home. But a new poll has some news for the pols. It says we the people are

quite concerned about the state of the environment as well and many will be

using the candidates' stand on the e-ssues to make decisions on e-lection day.

Best of the Web:

Cleaning Up in More Ways than One

We

admit it: We're a bit obsessed with cleaning. It is, after all, quite literally

the nature of our business. Recently we found two web sites that give new

meaning to the term. One lets you clean out junk and/or clean up with loads of

free stuff. And the other helps you clean up more safely around the house.

Required Reading: Frank Talk about the Elephants in the Room

There's

an old metaphor about the elephant in the living room. It's big, obvious, and

very definitely in the way, but nobody wants to be impolite and bring it up. So

everyone ignores it and goes about their business in spite of the clear need to

deal with the situation. There are three elephants in the environmental

movement: overconsumption, unequal distribution of wealth, and the mother of

all pachyderms, overpopulation. In the public sphere, these subjects are rarely

addressed, but a new book aims to correct that conscious oversight and deal

with them at last.
