We work hard and have fun living green, but do our four-legged friends deserve any less?
Just because they have twice the number of legs doesn’t mean they should get half of the health and eco-friendliness does it?
Of course not!
Dogs can reduce their carbon footprint pawprint too… and receiving an eco-friendly throw toy would be a great place to start!
First a solar powered 6-in-1 transforming toy and now a solar powered climbing monkey?
Maybe I should just have deemed this "Awesome Solar Powered Toys Week". What do you think?
Summer always makes me want to do home improvements… and a new eco-friendly deck is a good place to start!
Did you know that there is an awesome eco-friendly alternative to composite deck boards?
Well there is, and it’s a great one!
Enter the modular composite pavers from Vast.
These concrete-free pavers are green, affordable, and ridiculously easy to work with!
Whether you’re looking for strong and beefy landscape pavers for patios, sidewalks, and driveways or you fancy smaller and lighter deck pavers, Vast pavers have you covered… literally.
As far as toys go, it’s tough to get much cooler than transformers.
Unless, of course, that transformer is actually 6 different solar powered toys in one!
Tired of mowing the lawn? Here’s a creative partner who’s BOUND to help.
What’s better than starting your very own container garden with fresh organic herbs and veggies?
Starting one for FREE!
This picture is an actual photo of the container garden I made out of reclaimed shipping pallets.
And I’m going to show you how to make one too…
It’s no secret that today’s toys are riddled with toxins of all varieties.
Luckily there are a few companies, like Sprig Toys, that are keeping your kids safe and the earth beautiful.
Of course if Sprig’s eco-friendly toys that harness both kid and kinetic power aren’t a suit for your youngster, you can always retrofit your current toys with uber-cheap solar powered lights and sound.
Composting is a GREAT way to save money and reduce chemicals around the home…just don’t use your sense of taste to see if it’s ready!
It’s time to shower all the dads out there with great eco-friendly gifts sure to make ANY father squeal with excitement like a little girl.
I don’t know about you, but it seems like most of the dads I know don’t really care about living green or being eco-friendly.
In fact, it seems like a good number of them actually view living greener as some form of sissification.
Do you see that in the dads you know?
So the trick is to find eco-friendly Father’s Day gifts that are sure to WOW your dad whether he’s uber-green, doesn’t really care either way, or even if he thinks eco-friendliness is for girlie men.

The clean coal debate has been raging on for several years now.
Can coal really be utilized for energy in a clean and responsible way or is that the dirtiest lie of all time?
Maybe it’s time for a different perspective on that argument. Afterall, few things in life or so cut and dry.
Regardless of what side of the fence you find yourself on, you may leave this post with some questions about your position…
Who doesn’t like a good ole’ Batter Blaster on a sleepy Saturday morning?
IÂ mean seriously, everyone loves great tasting organic batter that’s available at the gentle touch of a single finger… and with no mess!
Of course we are talking about pancake and waffle batter here.
Ok, yeah, so I would personally classify this as a gigantic FAIL as far as the name goes.
Raise your hand if you love all-natural, low calorie snacks.
In that case, look no further for booty-friendly snacks than those from Pirate’s Booty.
My new friend Rachel at Pirate’s Booty sent me this chest o’ loot last week for some friends and IÂ to try and review.
Here’s what we thought…
The summer sun is already crankin’ up the heat…which means your grill should be too!
If you’ve never loaded up your grill with loads of veggies, you have no idea what sensory stimulation overload you’re missing out on!
On Sunday my wife, a friend, and I grilled an AWESOME sunny weekend vegetarian lunch (pictured at right)…including a sweet potato salad recipe that you absolutely MUST try!
