This blog is about recognizing the connection between the health of the environment and the health of a people and strengthening both. "It really all boils down to this: that all life is interrelated. We are all caught in an inescapable network of mutuality, tied into a single garment of destiny. Whatever affects one directly, affects all indirectly." - Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., Dec. 1967

Babies on the Crawl...
From Seventh Generation's Youtube video: "Babies are getting on soapboxes to demand toxic chemical policy reform from Congress, and to rally support for The Million Baby Crawl"
Check out Seventh Generation's website to find out more info about non-toxic products for your family/household. There is plenty of information, lists of events, and safe products you can purchase. There are also lists of places you can go to find such products.
As taken from their website: "Seventh Generation is committed to becoming the world's most trusted brand of authentic, safe, and environmentally-responsible products for a healthy home. For 20 years, the closely held Burlington, Vermont-based company has been at the forefront of a cultural change in consumer behavior and business ethics.
One of the country's first self-declared "socially responsible" companies, Seventh Generation is a business that operates according to a new and different set of principles and values that in many ways are a marked departure from those long considered "traditional." Its business practice is focused on offering people avenues to express their idealism, passion, and commitment to causes larger than themselves at every point along its supply chain—from suppliers and partners to shareholders, customers and its own staff.
The company derives its name from the Great Law of the Iroquois that states, "In our every deliberation, we must consider the impact of our decisions on the next seven generations." Every time you use a Seventh Generation product you are making a difference by saving natural resources, reducing pollution, keeping toxic chemicals out of the environment and making the world a safer place for this and the next seven generations."
The video is one of many videos circulating that are spreading the word for a campaign called "The Million Baby Crawl," find out more about why they are crawling here.
