Wow, I'm a terrible blogger! This is like the 3rd or 4th blog that I've started and lost interested in within a matter of weeks after starting it. I promise to be more compositive when my life is less hectic! I have actually buried my compost from the compost bin twice since starting! I've also been actively choosing items that have less packaging, etc etc so as to not procure more waste for the trash bin.

But that is not what I came here for today! Last year some time I came across this blog where a man living in new york city was going to try to have a zero impact on the earth so he wouldn't drive or buy food that was out of season, etc etc. I thought the blog was an awesome idea but somehow I never ended up keeping up with it. Then the other day I was driving to work listening to the local npr station and a woman who worked at the station was going to try to be impact free for a whole week! In Houston! Amazing! and then later in the week I received an email about the No Impact Experiment. Here is a video from their website:


I'm trying as much as I can and once I don't have a million things going on in my life, this is definitely something I will be trying! For the month of September I didn't buy a single frivolous thing I didn't need! and it felt amazing but October was even more amazing when I bought new clothes. I need to break that habit!
