I think this is a worthwhile cause.

Battle Over the Bottle

In Concord, Mass., 82-year-old Jean Hill has taken a shot at plastic bottle waste by campaigning to ban bottled water. While some residents are pleased, others question the effect of the new law.

Over the fathers' day weekend, I saw Dr.Sanjay Gupta's show on the environmental exposures that our children are subject to and how their young bodies are showing increasing levels of carcinogins.

In our house, we have massively reduced inflow of plastics. We have still not completely eliminated plastics - it is very difficult to do but we are at say the 80% mark.  Whatever plastics are brought are recycled and taken out as quickly as possible.  We have wooden floor on all levels and I sweep the floors every day. Yep!  And, believe it on not, you get dust every day if you sweep...  Our space carpets/area rugs are woollen (rather than poly) and they do shed fuzz. It is part of what gets swept.  Our indoor air is wonderfully clean because of that daily sweeping. The first thing to go was plastic water bottles.
