You Might Be an Eco Chick If…..

….you’ve decided that since you’ve made it this far this summer without A/C, you’re just going to keep going and tough it out, just to know you still can (and to save carbon emissions and cash).

….going to the regular grocery store (and gazing into other people’s carts filled entirely with processed food) stresses you out. And inadvertently walking down the household cleaning aisle makes you feel like you were toxified with all the offgassing going on.

….you think that Cash for Clunkers should have had higher MPG requirements.

Hey Eco-Chick, I’ve been totally making it without the A/C thusfar. I was wondering if you had any opinions about the acclaimed Ecozuzu brand?

Oh, have you checked out those Terra Plana Mumbai shoes from SHOP.com I mentioned? the ones I got – http://bit.ly/DH2CE

Nope! I live on the Connecticut shore and it’s been a very cool Summer here so far, which has been amazing! Wish it was always like this….
