Okay this one is really cool or not, quite depends on how you view it. I once wrote about eco-friendly menstrual pads, which got a bit of a mixed reaction from my fellow readers. I guess it does put women off to learn that they have to clean, wash, dry and reuse their feminine towels. I agree it is quite the bother and it takes getting used too but frankly that’s how it was done in the olden days before disposable sanitary napkins came about.

But here’s ...



If the world was a perfect place and life was fair and just, then we’d all be peacefully making a decent living doing what we all loved the most. But since that’s not how it works, most of us are stuck at dead end jobs that we really stick to because it pays the bills and there’s hardly room or time to think of any joy to be associated to it. In all honestly my day job is a drag that’s giving me breakouts but I’m blessed because I found Girlsustainable which allows for me to combine my love for green and writing together.

Now perhaps it isn’t ...



One man’s trash is another man’s treasure...we’ve all heard that line before. And usually only 2 things come to mind when I hear someone say it – either the man’s talking about his grand collection of crap or he’s talking about a relationship. But never in my wildest dream did I actually think or see that phrase taking to life literally until Justin Gignac came along with his eccentric idea about boxing garbage ( I don’t mean those things that no one really has a need for but actual ...


This morning when I decided to type in the words –“eco + blue” into my browser’s search bar, I had a different expectation/intention for what would turn up and honestly urinals were not amongst them.
But that’s the great thing about the unexpected isn’t it? It leaves room for wonderful surprises and ‘amusing’ pieces of writings. Well whether or not this one counts as amusing is left to you to decide but one thing I do know is that it is informative so bear with me.

Continuing from yesterday, we’re visiting/introducing to you a world of luxury hidden amongst the many promises of eco-tourism. If you ever had the impression that going eco conscious on a holiday meant living in mud huts and bathing in rivers then this series of article will change that mindset forever.

South East Asia
I know we’ve already listed 2 luxurious resort for this destination but seeming that this region is a very popular vacation spot, it seems only fair that I cover more countries.

Thailand

It’s been a tiring day. I’ve driven miles across town in this sickening hot weather for one meeting after another and frankly it’s got me all worn out. Finally back in the comforts of my home I’m refreshed at the sight of these fantastic holidays advertised in the magazines. There are mesmerising, beautiful, picture perfect promises of tranquillity and everything that I would ever want in recuperation from burnout. Only problem is…such luxury are clearly beyond my means – that is if I want to come home from ...



These days, everything is expensive. Even the simplest of household problems can cost you a small fortune...well I blame commercialism but who can really say? And therein lays the beauty of sustainable living where the same kindness and respect we show for the environment will be in turn shown to our wallets. Bottom line is because loving the environment means we should reduce waste, green lovers tend to exercise their brains a bit more to figure out ways to be resourceful.

What I want to share with you here today isn’t really so much ...



Picking up where we left off with the party planning:

The decorations/setting
The success of any party is highly dependent on selecting the right theme. Now you would have done that and incorporated it into your invites but the decor is going require a bit more thought. When going green, remember that no theme is beyond your reach. You can go ahead and select any – as complicated and elaborate as you would like, it would not be an issue. All you have to do is  keep it to the 3 rules –

Be innovative to reuse/repurpose anything ...






The children are our future. And if nature is ever going to stand a chance at survival it will be up to us to ensure that the next generation is all for sustainable living. People often ask how and where we should begin to teach children to appreciate nature and be sensitive towards her in their every action.  Some sternly say it’s through education and I agree but education can be both in and out of the classroom. I say ...


Whether you are a newly wedded couple looking for a new home of matrimonial bliss or a growing family looking for more space or even just a single bachelor looking to setup  his own pad, house hunting is only the first of all your bothers to making that dream home your reality.

Once you’ve visualised what you want and you’ve found the perfect house to embody it, comes the horrid painstaking task of applying the cosmetics to it. You’ll find yourself ...
