Oh Mighty Tree
by Nancy Chuda, co-founder of LuxEcoLiving.com and Healthy Child Healthy World
Oh mighty tree must you stand so tall?
Do you know how long I have yearned to be near you?
To feel the touch of your skin against the weight of my heavy heart
Since the beginning of time
I have grown accustomed to your beautiful boughs and gentle swaying leaves
I have sat amongst the clustering of your youth
You have protected me against tyranny, hatefulness and shame. Coveted my innocence
shielding me against the preposterousness of war

Trying on Zero Waste Fashion
By Jessica Borges, LuxEco Living Editorial Assistant
Fashion design is an art, and just like other art forms such as writing, cooking, and painting, you need to scrap the first drafts and unruly pieces before producing your masterpiece.

This awareness has fueled designers in the fashion industry to attempt “zero waste fashion.”

Beauty’s Big Secret: Hidden Toxins in Fragrance
By Alanna Brown, LuxEco Editorial Assistant
According to the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette article entitled “Fragrance Chemicals and the Scent of Suspicion,” the fragrance industry has been keeping vital chemical information from the public. The article says two recent reports, one by the EWG and one by Women’s Voices for the Earth, have caused a stir amongst researchers, environmental groups, consumers, and industry legislation. These reports reveal that on the label of any given personal care product, bottle of perfume, or cleaning agent the word “fragrance” is loaded with unknown meaning. Manufacturers have used this one word, a nondescript listing among the other ingredients, as a catch-all to legally mask the dozen-or-more chemicals not actually listed.
