There are a lot of magazines out there that tout their "green"ness whether they are printing on recycled paper (which is great), covering more eco-lifestyle topics (also great), or helping everyday folks on what they can do to help the environment.
I read a lot of magazines. There isn't a day that goes by that I'm not reading something. Most of the stuff I read is standard fare and occassionally I read something really cool and interesting and I like that share that with my friends and family. Well, I'm happy to share the March 2009 issue of Conscious Choice as one wonderful goldmine of an issue! Although available for free at many Chicagoland outposts, you can read most of this month's issue online at http://consciouschoice.com/index.html.
From a piece on Earth Hour, to a piece on shmeat (hint: it's test tube meat ... what?!), to keeping live chickens in your backyard, to 24 ways to green your life (these weren't the run of the mill change your lightbulbs - I actually picked up several new ideas!) to a great piece on Raj Patel, a food activist who supports fair trade but knows that alone won't save the world either...And the book reviews! Books I'd actually enjoy reading!
In my quest to simplify my life, I've started tearing out articles I either enjoyed or want to read later (like when I'm standing in line at the DMV). Well, I should have kept this issue intact because I found myself ripping out more than half the magazine and that rarely ever happens!
Conscious Choice, kudos on a job well done. I hope to see many more issues packed with helpful, interesting, informative piece like this one!
