so i have decided that i won’t be contributing to the massive amounts of plastic in our landfills. i ordered a number of reusable bags from store chicobag.com to tote along in the vehicle or purse when i do my shopping. i do, however, need to have some of the non-biodegradable bags for the disposal of james and lottie’s compost, if you will….
i have never thought of becoming “green”. my father thinks that global warming is just another way for people to make money, which to some crazy republican point, i agree with him. but i do, with the onset of being a mother of 3, want to preserve this earth for my children. God has put us here ultimately to praise him and to win the lost for him. but along the way i do believe we should take care of his creation. on the side of my dad, i wish this was more afordable to do. i looked in to flushable diapers recently….yes, i was willing to pull apart a dirty diaper, use a swish stick to stir it and save the planet in the mean time. but to my dismay the adorable and earth-friendly gDiapers-were not wallet friendly. buying organic is the same. i do purchase some organic produce and my sister-in-law Lindy has enlightened me on how important organic milk is to my children, but to go completely organic means to take out a second morgage. so at this time in my life i think i am satisfied with being just a little green. so i will pack my reusable chico bags and set off in my gas guzzling environmentally hating tahoe to do my grocery shopping…only buying 20% organic!!

I so have been thinking about the bags for grocery shopping, but with as much as I buy I was nervous it would cost A LOT to get the bags. How much were they-if you don’t mind me asking.
I love this blog. When I first got saved I thought saving the planet was “New Ageish.” Now that I have matured a little in Christ I realize that saving the planet is not only good, but great. I am not sure what the future is going to bring with this earth, but it is so beautiful until it is hard to think that God would just discard it completely. So I am with you maybe not with bags, but with heart-wanting to do better. You know what they say “You can’t teach an old dogs new tricks,” but I am wanting to learn a few things. 🙂
Aden uses the G Diapers and I LOVE them!!! They are so awesome! But, you’re right, they aren’t cheap. I’m slowly learning about the whole “green” thing. Some people can become pretty fanatic about it though…lol. I agree, we should preserve God’s beautiful Creation for our children 🙂
