Sustainable Choices: Agriculture Maps

http://sustainablechoices.blogspot.com/2007/04/agriculture-maps.html

Friday, April 13, 2007. I just came across this website, the 2002 census of agriculture. Which provides maps of the United States with information on where land is chemically treated, where our produce and meats come from, and more! Definitely worth playing around with. For example, do you know where canola comes from? Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Smart choices made easy. A guide for consumers interested in sustainable options. Sustainable Bay Area Farms.

EcoHoodLA: What the World Eats

http://ecohoodla.blogspot.com/2007/09/what-world-eats.html

Thursday, September 27, 2007. What the World Eats. The Skirball Cultural Center hosts a wide variety of events, readings, and lectures, and art exhibitions. I've been seeing some posters around town, particularly on Wilshire Boulevard, on the new 'Noah's Ark'. Exhibition cum playground-esque sort of thing, where families and kids can play in and around, participate in activities, and look at the many different representations of animals, all made from recycled materials and everyday objects, I might add.

EcoHoodLA: Conserv?

http://ecohoodla.blogspot.com/2007/08/conserv.html

Wednesday, August 22, 2007. Filled up at Conserv Fuel. In Brentwood today. I know, I know, dependence on oil is something that eventually I should work on limiting, but since my work requires me to be pretty mobile, until I get a more energy efficient car or what not, I'm stuck, for the moment at least, to getting gas. And I figure.why not support Conserv instead of Exxon Mobil who has a huge lobby? 11699 San Vicente Blvd. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Organics and fair trade tees.

EcoHoodLA: Auto Recycler

http://ecohoodla.blogspot.com/2007/07/auto-recycler.html

Friday, July 27, 2007. Part of my job involves going out to see various types of businesses. This one is interesting: auto recycler, they buy cars, take out various parts of the cars and stow them away in their warehouse, anything from front passenger doors to other things, and people come to them, looking for specific parts. Here are some pics. You can see the Lexus SUV in the back. I wonder the trek these cars made to eventually find themselves here and then eventually taken apart? Water Quality in LA.

EcoHoodLA: Boobs and Bicycles

http://ecohoodla.blogspot.com/2007/08/boobs-and-bicycles.html

Wednesday, August 15, 2007. Photo from D ays of Our Lives. I can't believe Sami and Lucas got married! And I can't believe how long its been since I've watched Days Of Our Lives. Not that I really miss it anyway. But on the filming of Sami's and Lucas's wedding, nearly everything was greenified, from the organic munchies from Ford's Filling Station to the replantable floral arrangements, the place settings and wedding cake made from organic ingredients.
