Stress that already affects the world's transportation infrastructure will continue to grow with the population to an estimated 8 billion people.
Do-It-Yourself vs Purchasing Name-Brand Products: Green Technology Doesn’t Have To Be Expensive
You can put more "green" into your pocket by taking advantage of do-it-yourself projects and making your own green technology.
By Derin Richardson, LuxEco Living Editorial Assistant
You really don’t have to sacrifice your arms and legs to be eco-conscious. Seriously.
Strangely, people still subscribe to the notion that they must maim themselves to obtain quality products--green technology solutions are certainly no exception to this nagging fallacy. Amid the venerable do-it-yourself methods, paying a fortune for novelties like solar panels is pretty silly.

If I Could

Hands by Guido Daniele
By Florence "Flip" Ross, LuxEcoLiving Advocate and Contributor
If I could bring the planet Earth, back to its natural beauty
If I could sing its praise, and make the world assume its duty
If I could make the industries clean up their foul pollution
Our air, our water, would be clean, and would be the solution
If I could force our corporations to help clean up our planet
Whatever Baby Wants…
By Bernadette Bowman, Comedienne and LuxEco Advocate who writes the LIFE GOES RETROGRADE series.
It all started when I updated my Facebook status this past week.
Bernadette Bowman thinks that children should be carded at Starbucks.
This bold statement after witnessing an nine-year old boy, who I honestly mistook as a “little person” speaking in tongues, spouting the following in rapid-fire speed:
“Venti half-white-mocha-half-caff-vanilla, easy ice, with 3 shots, pour affogato (this means: to drown) with extra whip, and caramel drizzle frappuccino.”
Parents, it’s three o’clock on a Wednesday afternoon:

Are Your “Organic” Eggs All They’re Cracked Up To Be?
By Lorri Ballance Laird, LuxEco Advocate
For many consumers, eggs are a staple in their diet. What’s better than a yummy omelet or frittata on a Sunday morning? While many food-conscious consumers make an attempt to buy products that are produced organically and/or sustainably, they may be getting duped when reaching for that carton of eggs labeled “organic” or “free-range.”

Cleaning Doesn’t Have to be Toxic
By Jessica Borges, LuxEco Living Editorial Assistant
I recently moved into a new apartment, and with that came a massive scrub down of both old digs and new. My roommates and I spent hours cleaning the old place after moving everything out, but the products we used were hardly eco or health-friendly. When scrubbing the Comet-filled bathroom tub, the smell was so overwhelming that I nearly passed out. While cleaning bathrooms isn’t normally an enjoyable task, it doesn't have to be one that puts people’s health and safety at risk.
