All Purpose Cleaner

There are many ways to approach all purpose cleaners. Technically you could use just water to clean something. As long as there's no grease or dirt particles on something it is clean, but that doesn't mean we should really be comfortable with that level of clean 😂 I use vinegar most often because it's the most simple, but I have a few recipes to choose from.

Vinegar Cleaner:

This really is the most simple option, but that doesn't mean it doesn't work extremely well!

1 part Vinegar (I love infused vinegar)

1 part Water

15 drops Essential Oil (optional, if using infused vinegar you may not find this necessary)

Castile Soap Cleaner:

If you don't feel like things are clean without a bit of soap this recipe is perfect for you! It's still incredibly simple to make.

2 cup Filtered Water

2-4 tablespoons Castile Soap

15 drops of whatever essential oil (optional, if you buy a scented castile soap you might not find this necessary)

These are great cleaners for basic cleaning to get the grime off, but neither have real sanitizing power. Isopropyl alcohol (also called rubbing alcohol) is amazing for disinfecting.

Disinfecting Cleaner:

This is great for cleaning with a bit of disinfecting power, but this is also an amazing glass cleaner!

1 cup Filtered Water

1/2 cup Vinegar

1/2 cup Isopropyl Alcohol

15 drops Essential Oil (optional, if using infused vinegar you may not find this necessary)

Lange says that bedrock environmental laws like the Clean Water Act, Endangered Species Act and National Environmental Policy Act have improved air quality and human health conditions in the United States, but at the same time they may also contribute to the lag in sustainable production of EV materials.“When we restrict access to natural resources, these international companies can choose to go elsewhere,” he says — often to countries with lax environmental and human rights laws.”

Panel Discussion on Critical Energy Transition Minerals.

Critical minerals such as copper, lithium, nickel, cobalt and rare earth elements are essential components of clean energy technologies, including wind turbines, solar panels, electric vehicles and battery storage. Rising demand for these minerals to fuel the renewables revolution presents risks, challenges and opportunities, particularly for developing countries. In response, Secretary-General António Guterres is leveraging the United Nations' convening power to assemble a diverse and representative group of governments and non-state actors to facilitate standards and safeguards, and embed justice, in the transition to renewable energy.

A newly established Panel on Critical Energy Transition Minerals -- co-chaired by Ambassador Nozipho Joyce Mxakato-Diseko of South Africa and Ms. Ditte Juul Jørgensen Director-General for Energy from the European Commission -- will develop a set of global common and voluntary principles to guide governments and other stakeholders involved in critical minerals value chains in the years ahead by addressing issues relating to equity, transparency, investment, sustainability and human rights.

Top Trends in Plant-Based Ingredients

[sparky-cryptidcrafts]

why did I decide I was mentally healthy enough for Esci classes.

I was warned before taking these classes that alot of students drop out for mental health reasons, I was warned it isn't a easy class emotionally. I knew how bad the situation was already, but I still had some hope ya know? just a little thanks to things like the land back and water is life movements and the pipeline protests.

And im trying to hold onto that, I really am, I don't want to give up. It's just really hard and I'm really tired and there's so many other things going on that waking up every day with a roof still over my head feels surreal. Seeing green grass feels surreal and I'm only seeing it right now because it was a el nino year.

I don't think most people realize the last time there were flowering meadows, forests, ect in Antarctica was between 55 and 38 MILLION years ago when the continent was a lot closer to the equator.

Eco-Friendly Cleaning Products for a Green Kitchen

When choosing eco-friendly cleaning products, consider the following factors:

Ingredients: Look for products that clearly list their ingredients and avoid those that contain harsh chemicals such as ammonia, chlorine, phthalates, and artificial fragrances. Instead, opt for plant-based ingredients and natural substances like vinegar, baking soda, essential oils, and citric acid.

Certifications: Check for third-party certifications on the product packaging, such as the USDA Certified Biobased, EcoLogo, Green Seal, or Safer Choice labels. These certifications ensure that the product meets specific environmental and health criteria.

Packaging: Consider the packaging of the product. Look for options that use recyclable or biodegradable materials and minimize the use of excessive packaging. Refillable or bulk options can also help reduce waste.

Infused Vinegar

Vinegar is one of the best all purpose cleaners in my opinion. I use it all over my house. I'm used to the smell after years of using it for cleaning as well as canning, but I know a lot of people really hate it. You could add essential oils to your cleaning products...or you could make infused vinegar! Infused vinegar is so insanely simple to make as well as cheaper and more sustainable than essential oils. Now don't get me wrong, I love using essential oils, but one bottle takes pounds of plant matter to make. With infused vinegar you can simply add your orange peels to a mason jar after a snack, costing you no extra money and reducing waste.

Orange peels are most commonly used since oranges are popular snacks, but you can use any citrus peels, herbs, or even pine needles! All you have to do is fill a mason jar with your dry matter (Peels, herbs, etc) and then fill the jar with 5% acidity white distilled vinegar and let it infuse in a cool, dark place for 2 weeks. I usually use a quart jar, but if you're not sure you'll like it you could use a pint. Alternatively, if you know you'll go through a ton of infused vinegar, you could make it in a half gallon jar.
