Election results are showing that Seattle voters care about diversity and social issues, in addition to the environment. Social sustainability is the next frontier of the green movement. Social issues and environmental issues overlap in everywhere. Put another way, sustainability is everything, not just carbon and climate. Gender, education, race and housing are all areas that impact and are impacted by the environment of our planet and our how we treat our local and global community.

Here is an article that webster walker wrote for the Central Co-op's newsletter...

Organic herb wreaths for Fall

kaarina — Thu, 22 Oct 2009 20:59:39 +0000

Look, I know it isn't even Halloween yet, but I'm getting anxious...

It is time to face the facts- the waning colors of your garden are telling you to bring the bounty indoors: everlasting flowers, dried leaves, fruits, and grasses are a natural way to decorate for the holidays as well as a way to hold onto the last color of the season.

Living Christmas Tree

kaarina — Thu, 22 Oct 2009 18:46:31 +0000

I always feel a little bummed out after the holidays and I am telling you, it has nothing to do with the presents I didn't get. It is the throwing away of the tree, and seeing all of its pine needled cousins littering the roads for weeks after Christmas is over. I don't know about you, but spending $100 bucks on something that I throw out in two weeks just seems like a bad investment.
