April 30 at 6:07 AMI had never heard of silvopasture. A major advantage is the shade provided to livestock. With global temperatures continuing to increase, adding trees to pastures or adding forage to wooded areas will be an important solution for improving the wellbeing of livestock. I was surprised and happy that one of the resources provided by Project...

April 29 at 10:10 AMThere are so many different choices I can make to reduce my carbon footprint. One change I recently made was replacing my old thermostat with a smart one. It allows me to be more energy-efficiency-minded with less effort.

April 28 at 9:43 AMI learned that steel, aluminum, glass and insulation materials can have a significant carbon footprint. I found some articles that can help me learn more about carbon footprints. One of them is dezzen.com has an article highlighting ten materials that store carbon, including bioplastic cladding and mycelium insulation. It provides solutions as...

April 28 at 9:27 AMMy son got a free tree from his school to plant for Earth Day. We got a native tree that we put in our backyard but it is sooo small. A reminder of how much care and time each tree needs to become the big trees we respect and are in awe of helps you think differently about your paper/wood use. Digging in our Oklahoma clay was indeed something...

April 28 at 9:24 AMI found videos on YouTube as well as articles online that explained the impact of refrigerants. Supermarkets rely on hydrofluorocarbons, to keep food cold or frozen, which are potent greenhouse gases. The refrigeration systems in supermarkets are leak-prone which contributes to emissions.
