Being Religiously Green

What has drinking beer got to do with this building in Thailand?

The building is in the drinking and in this case in the form of a temple where one can seek spiritual abundance from the abandoned.

A New Life From Old

Guess what these are made off?

Tyres! Did you see it?

I do not know who the artist is as I received these images in an email. Look at what this person can create with old tires.

What could that be for?

Free flower pots for the garden!

That looks good.

Don't you think so too?

Not pregnant? Blame those receipts?

If like me, you have been recycling just any scrap of paper you can get your hands on, note this!

Recycling thermal imaging carbonless paper may not be such a good idea, after all.

If you know that you should avoid drinking from bottles with bisphenol A (BPA) because you have been reading reports that it can cause a number of health problems, including infertility, then watch out for that powdery feeling on any receipts that you get your hands on.

Janet Raloff reported in her article, "Concerned about BPA: Check your receipts," that what you feel is a layer of BPA, manufacturers coat on one side of thermal imaging carbonless papers.

What?!!! That's how most credit card receipts feel when rubbed against your fingers, right? So, stop doing that as she has also reported that a survey of urine samples of pregnant women in USA found that cashiers had the highest amounts of BPA in their bodies.

Janet may have us concerned about what we are recycling but I am sure that it is because of such reports that there are now BPA-free thermal-receipt paper in USA. But when will we see such used in Malaysia?

I guess that depends on how many of you are willing to talk about what you picked up today. Just remember that the BPA tainted paper we recycled could well be made into the packaging our food will be served in.

Small space? Multitask it.

Architect, Gary Chang, who lives in Hong Kong won't let tight spaces cramp his style. Watch how he does it in this video.



Love watching "World's Greenest Home", don't you?

Plastic bags? Sing them away.

Do you often tell your friends not to use plastic bags? Don't be a bore with your efforts. Sing about it the next time.
