A suburban housewife's guide to raising babies and children in a socially, environmentally, and fiscally responsible way. We believe that sustainable living is critically important and may be easily achieved by incorporating simple ideas into everyday life. In addition to being a new mom who researches everything, I have a background in environmental management and engineering and have worked on sustainability projects in Africa.

Lights out tonight at 8pm
Saturday evening, March 29th at 8 p.m., join millions of people around the world in making a statement about climate change by turning off your lights for Earth Hour, an event created by the World Wildlife Fund.
Join more than 100 cities across North America in turning off the lights for an hour starting at 8 p.m. (your own local time)–whether at home or at work, with friends and family or solo, in a big city or a small town. During last year's event in Sydney, Australia 2.2 million people and 2100 Sydney businesses joined the campaign and achieved greenhouse reductions so large that if it was sustained for a year, it would be equivalent to taking 48,616 cars off the road for a year. So turn out the lights tonight and spend some quality time with someone special.
