A good article and an excellent site!
My site is mostly a religious one, but I have posted a few articles on green issues such as this the recent ones by philosopher SH Nasr and some early posts here:

I’ve been reading you for a while but never really commenting. Wanted you to know that I nominated you for the Blogger Reflection Award.

I was just wondering if you ate a vegetarian diet during your pregnancy and and if you might have some resources that you could recommend. Also if sometime you might be able to post about having an “eco friendly” pregnancy and child rearing. I mean obviously there is cloth diapering and sling wearing but I’m sure there is so much more to think about. Like sippy cups, i know you don’t use plastic but do they make other kinds? I don’t know. Things like that. Maybe it could be a series. Sorry if thats an awfuly big wish list, but THANKS!

Oh, of course you own a Westy. Of course you would. I hate you. No, not really. I’m just pooping green, I’m so envious.

Oh, is that not what you meant by *green*? Oops.

Seriously, thank you for being such an encouragement to me!

Sara,
Thanks so much for sharing your story- mine’s still ongoing, and many of my “steps” have been encouraged as of late by you!

(Confession time: I’ve switched to cloth diapers, am thinking of cloth wipes, am about to buy cloth napkins for our new home overseas, and -gulp- am even inwardly considering cloth t.p.) WHOA! I feel like a neon green-y!

Thanks for your fun and inspiring blog!
Blessings,
Jess @ Making Home

I cut my “simplicity teeth” in the 1970s reading More With Less and then we moved to a small interior village in Irian Jaya, Indonesia to be linguistic missionaries. The simple life style has always appealed to me although sometimes I have “lost my way”. Now, nearing retirement and being empty nesters, we’ve made the decision to have less and enjoy more. We moved 2 weeks ago and have downsized AGAIN.

I agree that Christians should be the people in the forefront of caring for God’s creation. I enjoy reading your blog. If you get out to Southern CA, stop by!

My blog is mostly about knitting, but it’s also my journey to peace and simplicity.
