Sushi January 17, 2009
Here is some shameless plugging.
My friend Casson has just published a book called
Sustainable Sushi: A Guide to Saving the Oceans One Bite at a Time (Paperback)
www.sustainablesushi.net
And you can buy it from Amazon for £7.83
http://www.amazon.co.uk/s/ref=nb_ss_w_h_?url=search-alias%3Daps&field-keywords=Sustainable+Sushi%3A+A+Guide+to+Saving+the+Oceans+One+Bite+at+a+Time+(Paperback)&x=0&y=0
So quick get one fast while stocks last (no pun intended!?!)
Also if any of you are ever in San Fransisco or know anyway who is there then send them to his sustainable sushi restaurant.
It is the best sushi I have ever eaten (and for those who know nick know that that is allot!)
So pls tell all SF people about

Coke and Forests December 1, 2008
Some 2.2 million hectares of rainforest has been lost to cocaine production over the last 20 years.
Columbia is the second most biodiverse country in the world and cocaine is fuelling environmental damage.
The drug barons devastate the country’s soils and water sources by using harmful or banned pesticides.
And just for some celebrety gossip – apparently we can blame a lot of this on:
As a friend went to a party with her and said she is a complete addict….
Food Seasonal Planner July 9, 2008
The chart tells you when produce is in season, when it is in storage and when it is available but carries higher production costs, for example, when soft fruit is grown under glass.
Best probably to print it out and then keep as reference…
Food disposal June 21, 2008
What to do with your food waste…
BEST
1. Reduce the amount you produce
2. Compost it in your own garden
3. Have it collected by your council for composting or anaerobic digestion
4. Put down sink using mascerator (not fat or oil)
5. Put in bin
WORST

Rainforest Alliance Certification
This is another certification of sustainable agriculture.
A product has too meet high standards of land conservation, integrated farm management practices, and fair labor conditions.
Coke (good for the loo) June 4, 2008
Right if you have a brown stain in your loo…
Get some Coke Cola and pour it down your loo and leave over night.
Then in the morning flush and give a quick scrub with loo brush…
It is amazing!
If not all comes off just repeat.
Much better than horrible bleach etc…
