We’re not talking about love or marriage – we’re talking trash. Garbage is usually easier to dismiss than your last husband, boyfriend, or lover, but what happens to your crap after you’re done with it is actually a much stickier situation. So before you buy your next cup of coffee, choose your next set of wheels, or drink your next beer, learn how to navigate the debris field. Here are three of the least biodegradable things you can toss, and what you can do instead: Your Wheels – If you cringe at the thought of ponying up for a whole new set of tires, you should shudder at the thought of scrap tire stockpiles. Experts agree that tires pretty much never go away – they’ll last thousands of years, if not forever, in landf...

The chemical is now also found in an overwhelming majority of Americans, and a recent study found traces of it in 90 percent of infant cord blood. BPA exposure has been linkedto disruptions in the endocrine system, an issue that can cause reproductive, neurological, and behavioral problems. But he federal government has yet to make a final decision on whether low level exposure to the chemical is a threat to public health. The government is plannig to spend $30 million to investigate the risks associated to exposure to BPA, but since the feds are taking so long to rule its safety, states such as Wisconsin an...

Every day at about 7:50 I announce departure time. Time for school. It’s the last transition of many, in our finely honed morning routine. Currently we have a new hic-cup. My announcement prompts him, a reminder. Now he knows that it’s time to leave it also means that he remembers that he wants to take a Garfield book to school to share with his new pal. Instead of prompting him to move towards the car, I inadvertently give him a tip off to go and seek out the book. Wrong direction. Wrong prompt. Insufficient time to accommodate this new step.I bound after him, up the stairs, three at a time because I’m cross and I am utterly sick of the deviation from the routine. Late for school is a really bad way to start the day. It wouldn’t be so b...

Those 16 ounce bottles of water are my salvation when it comes to staying hydrated all summer. The plastic is not pro-environment, but our tap water isn't the best, so we often opt for bottled water. The risk of dehydration is higher for diabetics, and even greater when running high blood sugars on a hot summer day. High glucose levels trigger the body to draw extra water from the cells to flush out the glucose, which is then excreted in urine. This process requires the body to use its stored fluid. High blood sugars combined with sweating and inadequate fluid intake can quickly lead to dehydration or even severe hydration (dangerous). A...
