What is this all about?

This blog will attempt to share my views about the (ever uphill) journey towards social and corporate responsibility. I would like to make more educated consumer decisions; especially those which effect my own personal health and the health of others on a local, national and global level.

But let's face it: the fight for justice can be a real downer. Therefore, I will be adding in occasional highlights from my lovely life as a thrice all American (A Tacoma dweller and proud of it)!

I look at the box, but I do not stand on the box

Hi all! This is my first official post to my first official blog and I am not sure where to start. I guess I wanted to make clear what my intentions are: I would like to make more educated decisions about the products that I use, have in my home, and support through spending, on a local, national and global level.

That being said, a wise woman once said "You cannot live in a tree house and sleep on a bed made of horse hair." In other words, I am doing what I can to make these choices (and look forward to the blog as a space for education and sharing), but I am not the utmost socially responsible person around and I recognize that for myself and others, this is not an overnight process.

Lastly, let's face it: the fight for justice can be a real downer. Therefore, I will be adding in occasional highlights from my lovely life as a thrice all American (A Tacoma dweller and proud of it)!
