One of the best things about this Green world we’ve immersed ourselves into are the great people we meet who share the same ideals. I found Wendy Gabriel’s cool site, My Green Side, and told her about us and what we’re doing. And next thing you know, she asks to interview ME for her column on Examiner.com!
I’m here to give Wendy some blog love. She’s written this two-part series on Irradiation. Part I describes the process and how it’s really doing more harm than good for our health and that of the planet. In Part II, she talks about a study that focused on a “mysterious neurological affliction in pregnant cats that have been fed irradiated food.” She also quotes Dr. Joseph Mercola talking about how the best ways to avoid irradiation is by choosing locally grown, organic food or by growing your own. Amen.
While it seems that the Internet has made us more insular and separated, it also provides us the opportunity to find like-minded people. When I read these words from Wendy’s blog, I knew we were compatriots:
I created My Green Side as a way to remind myself, while hoping to educate others, on how to live thoughtfully and responsibly for our children, ourselves and our planet…The journey I’m on has opened my eyes to many simple things we can do to make a big difference in the world around us and in our own homes. If we don’t try harder to live better, we will all languish in a pool of empty plastic bottles.

I am so touched that you wrote a blog about ME! Thank you! I love the work you are doing. It is so important to educate people about the benefits of eating organic (and growing your own whenever possible). I feel like there is a lot of misinformation out there about how organic food isn’t really any better (when in reality it’s has higher nutritional values, it’s better for the soil and growing organically doesn’t deplete our natural resources like conventional methods), it’s more costly (the long-term health benefits outweigh any cost difference), etc. And you guys are not only educating people you are “walking the walk.” BRAVO!
