Alissa took imdoingit to Sudan on her trip in late May to research issues such as:
-the lack of clean drinking water as the foremost health issue in Sudan

Recycling Fetish



I work at an architecture firm that is filled with architects that are a part of the old school way of drafting on paper. This firm generates a huge amount of paper waste that many of the architects throw in the trash. My job as apprentice of this firm among other gopher work (gopher this gopher that) is to take out the one communal recycle box. As a dedicated environmentalist I also grab all paper that the architects have thrown in the trash and I relocate it to the proper receptacle. OCD? Yes a little, but more importantly I know that due to my efforts I have diverted tons of paper from the landfill to the local recycling center.

Kombucha Botanica

Yeah, I’m doing something about it everyday when Kombucha Botanica is available around the San Francisco Bay area- a refreshing mircro-brewed health elixir. Not only is it a great source of probiotics that aid digestion, boosts the immune system and detoxifies the liver- see kombuchabotanica.com for more info- but the company contributes 1% of it net sales to environmental organizations and engages in Fair Trade commerce by sourcing ingredients that are Fair Trade Certified. Triple bottom line all the way! Kombucha Botanica is committed to improving the health of the individual, natural environment and community!
