Eco-novice Interviewed on the Green Divas Radio Show

Last Thursday I was interviewed by Green Divas Megan McWilliams and Mizar Turdiu on the Green Divas Radio Show. The green divas radio show is a weekly, one-hour internet-based radio broadcast that offers listeners information about green and sustainable living in an accessible, low-guilt, often humorous way.

During my segment, we covered topics such as:

• Whether or not I am still an "eco-novice".
• How I got started on my green journey.
• Cloth diapers: do I wash them myself and do I use one of those plastic covers that looks like a shower cap? Plus other fun facts about my and the Green Divas' experiences with cloth diapers.
• Easy green steps for parents, like using straight or diluted vinegar to clean any surface.
• The burden of green knowledge and how the Omnivore's Dilemma changed our lives.
• Plus: a cool tip for making bar soap more kid-friendly.

My segment starts around minute 40. Listen to the entire show to hear about local communities creating their own currency to support the local economy (and kick things up a notch from bartering), encouraging car companies to get greener, and where your Earl Gray (and other) teas come from. Find a detailed summary of the radio show on the Green Divas blog.

This was a fun experience for me - chatting with long-time greenies in real time with our real voices - since most of my interactions with other greenish types are virtual. I hope you enjoy listening.
