Bleeding On The Run, Sustainable Periods While Traveling
A little background, I am a bleeding human. I also travel a lot and care about the planet. I know that period products are horrendous, not only for the people who use them (and their bodies) but for the planet (and her celestial body).

Covid: How I learned to Reduce My Use. Top Story - April 2021.
The one thing Covid-19 helped me do was to reduce my carbon footprint. Along with the rest of the world, my daily routine changed a lot, almost over night. Many of the things I used to do every day, which contributed to my carbon footprint, ceased to exist. So, reducing my carbon footprint was pretty easy. I didn't really have a choice. My goal for the remainder of 2021 is to see how many things that became part of my Covid-19 routine, which resulted in minimizing my carbon footprint, I can reasonably sustain.

Conservationism versus Environmentalism
In simplest terms, conservationism includes environmentalism and not the opposite. Self interest groups which include political ideoligies, many NGOs (Non Government Organizations, out of the United Nations, etc.) and a pleathra of non profit organizations constantly manipulate, skew and out right lie for monetary gain, political power and ideological influence. (note: the average non profit organization keeps 95% of donations for administration and expenses! The most recent atrocity has been censored by media and social media. The leader of the the group BLM has purchased multi millions in real estate mostly in white neighborhoods!)

Composting Consciousness: Where’s the best place to do it?
With Earth Day behind us, you may be thinking about the environment a little more. From using paper straws to reusable water bottles, saving the Earth has become a priority for many. One growing trend to help you become more environmentally friendly is composting. Composting creates organic material by combining dead plant parts and water with your waste and scraps, that definition according to the Environmental Protection Agency. The point of composting is so the organic material created can be used to cut down on methane emissions from landfills and also help plants grow.

The Lazy Girl’s Guide to a Less Wasteful Existence. Top Story - April 2021.
I’m lazy. Don’t get me up early. Don’t give me too many things to do per day. Let me meander through life at my own pace. I’m also a chronic worrier. I freak out about what’s in my food, what’s in my hair products and what’s going to happen to the world if we don’t stop using so much stuff!
