Environmentally dangerous post

Face-washes have become very popular - especially ones with micro-bits to help exfoliate your skin. Many times these tiny tiny bits are made of plastic, and as they make their way down your plumbing, into streams, and into natural habitats, smaller and smaller organisms are eating these undigestible things and dying. Try to buy only organic, natural products and avoid any of these ingredients: polyethylene and polypropylene. Plastics plastics plastics - read The World Without Us by Alan Weisman to find out just how evil they are. I will probably review it at some point.

I'm always on the lookout for new ways for businesses to adopt environmentally-friendly practices. Wild Harvest Organic products http://www.wildharvestorganic.com/ use 100% recycled paper and vegetable-based environmentally-friendly inks for their boxes. The ink part is especially awesome. Sure, paper is biodegradable, but If you think about it, most paper that is thrown away has ink on it, and that ink will run-off with the rainwater, into streams, back into rain and into drinking water. Normal ink is a pollutant, and I didn't realize that there was a biodegradable alternative. Their food is also very tasty and organic, they boast:

Growing bodies are susceptible to pollutants. We keep unpronounceable ingredients out of our food and away from your family.

Unpronounceable ingredients are usually preservatives and super refined sugars and corn syrups. I'm not trying to advertise for this company, I really would just like to see more businesses to adopt environmentally-friendly practices.
