Free Food....Gleaning
Gleaners are keen for fruit
Derek Spalding, The Daily News

Terra Bohart drove to Wesley Street in downtown Nanaimo on Tuesday in a small, white GMC pickup. When she arrived, her gleaning team dispersed with ladders, buckets and baskets. Within minutes, they were plucking light green transparent apples from a large, fruitful tree, compliments of a generous chiropractor in the Old City Quarter who does not have time to pick the fruit himself.
The popularity of gleaning has grown as more people realize the abundance of delicious food growing, and often wasted, in their own neighborhoods. Nanaimo Community Gardens has a growing list of ready and available residents waiting for the call to go out and pick unwanted food from people's backyards. With so many gleaners, program organizers are looking for more fruit to pluck.
The process is simple. A resident, who doesn't have time, donates the food in their yards. Gleaners come in, pick the fruit, vegetables, or nuts and then shares the food with the owner. A portion of the picker's pile is often donated to Nanaimo Foodshare and is used to feed hungry families. Gleaning has several benefits: It saves people money on their grocery bill, it decreases the amount of wasted food and it feeds those in need.

Gleaners from Nanaimo Community Garden Society get started on another season of fruit picking. Jason Kristiansen plucks transparent apples from the backyard of a business on Wesley Street.
Not all emergency food providers can utilize the food because they lack storage facilities for fresh produce, but with the 7-10 Club nearly set to relaunch its full kitchen, some of the gleaned food could once again be used up.
"We try to operate with a one-third sharing (ratio), but often tree owners don't want that much and the pickers could use more," said Lee Sanmiya of Nanaimo Community Garden Society. "Our priority is to make sure the food is not wasted. We encourage participants to take as much as they want and as much as they can share in the community."
Sharing the food is the inspiration for Jason Kristiansen. From the top of a 15-foot ladder, he firmly and consistently pulled apples from the branches and gently placed them into a satchel slung over his shoulder.
He usually takes as much fruit home as he can and shares them with his parents and grandparents. Living in an apartment, growing food at home is not an option, so he regularly shows up for team picks organized by the community garden society. With cherry season behind him, he realizes just how much money the picks can save him.
"At $3 a pound, there is some definite savings there," he said.
Saving money is another incentive. Bohart started gleaning three years ago. For the past two years she's been a pick leader, which means she can be out at least three times a week. The time investment is worth it because she and her family spend less cash at the grocery stores.
"It's an inexpensive way to get unsprayed, fresh fruit," she said.
Depending on the season, however, she can end up with more apples than she can eat. Apples are the most common fruit, starting with transparents in late July and continuing with a variety of strains ripening through until October. Still, nothing goes to waste. With a large juicer, society members can quickly whip up apple juice to share with clients.
Too much food was going to waste before the gleaning program began. In the program's first year, volunteers pulled in 1,156 kilograms of food in just four weeks. As funding increased, so did interest from potential gleaners. The following year, the society hauled away 8,039 kilograms. That successful year has never been matched, but since 2005, when community gardens brought in 5,234 kilograms, the abundance of gleaned food has grown. Even last year, when funding started to disappear, the eager volunteers collected more than they had in most other seasons.
The majority of the food comes from the older neighborhoods, such as the Old City Quarter and Harewood. At least 50% to 75%, according to estimations from Sanmiya. Since that first year, the group has brought in more than 33,000 kilograms of food.
Kristiansen hopes for another abundant season as do most other gleaners, but with the growing popularity of the seasonal program, the society needs more people to donate their food. Apples are the most common food, but the society is more then happy to glean any other food that is not needed and otherwise going to waste.

Save $ - Green Tip of the Day
#1. Top up your car tire pressure
Get Better Mileage with Properly Inflated Tires
An informal study by students at Carnegie Mellon University found that the majority of cars on U.S. roads are operating on tires inflated to only 80 percent of capacity. According to the website, fueleconomy.gov, inflating tires to their proper pressure can improve mileage by about 3.3 percent, whereas leaving them under-inflated can lower mileage by 0.4 percent for every one PSI drop in pressure of all four tires.
Fuel Saving Plan
I am going to describe a business concept that applies to a specific location. But I think you might be able to apply the same concept to a geographic location near you.
Current Situation
4 million people travel by ferry from Vancouver to Nanaimo on Vancouver Island every year. 70% travel by car at an average cost of $50 (for the car alone). But the biggest cost of travelling by car is the amount of incremental time required to reach the ferry, line up, and load. At peak times this can reach 2-3 hours of quite unpleasant heavy traffic and waiting in line.
Proposed Solution
Travelling as a "foot" passenger has many advantages
- Busses go to the ferry from several parts of the city. They are comfortable and circumvent most of the traffic line-ups to the ferry
- There is at most a 5 minute line-up for foot passengers so you can arrive 15 minutes before the boat leaves worry free.
- There is a major environmental saving to switch to foot from car. Cars on the ferry are the limiting factor. To increase capacity of the system you need more ferries, bigger ferries, more docking capacity. Also of course, there is a major cost and impact of the fuel used to move all those cars.
What I propose is to create a service where travellers could park their car well outside the high traffic area, board a bus to the ferry, ride as a foot passenger on the ferry, be picked up by a bus at the destination, and be delivered to a car rental agency at their destination.
You want what?.....a urinal?
You want what?.....a urinal?
It’s hardly a trend, more like a trickle …or a dribble; but increasingly North American men are installing urinals in their homes. Now, they are not gracing the main bathroom or the ensuite where (god forbid) women might be exposed to that most male of fixtures. But they are appearing in workshops, games rooms, man-caves and home offices. How does this affect the environment-my area of interest? Well, a urinal flush can be set at 2 liters vs. 6 liters (.8 gallons) for a low flush toilette and 18 liters (3.5 gallons) for a regular toilette. But I suspect that the motivation to install a urinal has little to do with the environment and more to do with the . PS Since I now am responsible for toilete cleaning in our home I "get it" about putting the seat down. Clark Sorensen's Red Hibiscus - Part of the "Nature's Call" Collection
No-Cost Environmental Strategies
3 No-Cost Steps To Reduce Your Environmental Impact
There are many ways of reducing your environmental impact; unfortunately, many are costly. You may want to consider the following but this article focuses on strategies that actually save you money while reducing environmental impact.
· Hybrid cars are 20% more expensive than the equivalent gas-powered cars. At current gas prices, analysis suggest that lifetime (of the car) savings do not offset the initial cost premium.
· Organic vegetables are anywhere from 15% to 30% more expensive than regular and my experience has been that they are often not as fresh
· Recycled paper is often 20% more expensive than regular paper
All require paying a premium
Carpet Clean & Deodorize
By Jennifer Patterson, eHow Contributor
updated: January 17, 2011
Remove Carpet Odors & Stains
Carpets add a nice look to the home, but can become dirty, stained and carry odor. Pets can sometimes have accidents on the carpet or things can get spilled, leaving hard-to-remove stains and odor. Hiring a professional cleaner to remove carpet stains and odors can be expensive. You do not need to spend a lot of money to remove carpet stains and odors.
Difficulty: Easy
Instructions
Things You'll Need:
Baking soda
1/4 cup hydrogen peroxide
Microfiber cloth
Spray bottle
How to Remove Carpet Odors & Stains
1. 1
Clean stains from the carpet as soon as they happen, especially red wine and coffee. The longer they set in, the harder they are to remove. Mix 1/4 cup of peroxide with 2 tbsp. of baking soda in the spray bottle. Leave the remaining baking soda for the last step. Shake the two ingredients together in the bottle until the baking soda dissolves. The hydrogen peroxide will dissolve the stain and the baking soda will eliminate odors instantly.
2. 2
Spray the contents of the spray bottle directly onto the stain. Apply slight pressure to the microfiber cloth and rub away the stain. Rinse the cloth occasionally and repeat spraying and rubbing the stain. Spray some more of the peroxide and baking soda from the bottle onto the stain. Leave it for 15 minutes.
3. 3
Blot the stain and odor area with the microfiber cloth. Rinse and repeat the process until the area is clean. Rub the wet area of the carpet briskly to eliminate most of the wetness. Place a fan in front of the damp area to speed up the drying process. Sprinkle baking soda over the carpet and vacuum it. The baking soda will eliminate any remaining odor. Discard the rest of the peroxide and baking soda from the spray bottle.
Tips & Warnings
Place a slice of raw white potato on stubborn carpet stains to eliminate them.
Keep contents of the spray bottle out of the reach of children. Contents can be toxic if swallowed.

Baking Soda Cleaning
Probably the best known natural home cleaner is vinegar. Next to that might be baking soda. Baking soda cleaning offers a lot of advantages to cleaning in many different home uses and it is extremely inexpensive, besides being safe for the environment and fume free.
Baking soda can be used in cleaning in a similar way to gentle abrasive cleansers. It can be mixed with either water or vinegar and rubbed into the surface or area to be washed. It can then be rinsed away or you can allow it to dry first for more cleaning power.
Baking soda cleaning is also excellent for shining silver. Simply soak your silver jewelry or other items in a mixture of baking soda and warm water. Allow it so sit for a few hours. Then remove and rub the surface. Rinse and dry and your silver will be bright and shining once again.
There is something else that needs to be cleaned more than once a day that baking soda is good for. Your teeth! Baking soda acts as a perfect toothpaste when combined with hydrogen peroxide to make a paste. This is a mild and effective natural method for getting those pearly whites clean.

More on roof cleaning
You may have read somewhere on the internet that it's perfectly okay to clean asphalt shingles with a high pressure washer but this is just plain wrong. I can virtually guarantee that if you climb up on your roof with a power washing wand and blast away at your shingles from close range that you will dislodge countless shingle granules in the process. Yes, you might also remove the algae stains, but if you cut five years off the life of your roof in the process then what's the point? Not only can it cause real damage to your shingles, but it can lead to water penetration in places that water isn't supposed to be. I'm talking about high pressure water intrusion around skylights, chimneys, and flashing. In other words, high pressure roof cleaning can turn into an absolute nightmare.
This is why you need to clean the roof first with a safe cleaner that will kill the roots of algea or moss and allow it to be rinsed off later

Clean Roof Increases Home Value
Most home buyers (or inspectors) will judge a roof on appearances. If they see stains or moss they will assume that a new roof is needed now or will be in the near future. They will subtract the roughly $15,000 (for a 2000 sq ft ) roof.
For $35 and 2 hours of work you can remove this impediment from buyers motivation. In other words this is an incredibly high return on your investment. Most realtors tell you a new kitchen will return 80 cents of price vs $1 of investment. A clean roof will give you $428 return per dollar invested. The trick is how to do it safely. Safe for you and safe for your plants
First of all, you should be aware that the black stains you're seeing all over your roof do not consist of dirt, grime, tar, or oil. They actually consist of a hardy type of blue-green algae called Gloeocapsa Magma. If you have any familiarity with algae at all then you know it's a living and feeding organism that only gets worse with time. Ignoring it will not solve the problem. This algae uses the limestone filler in your shingles to feed off of and expand, and eventually your entire roof will be covered with the black stuff unless it is cleaned. Not only are the streaks unsightly, but they will ultimately shorten the lifespan of your roof by hastening the process of granule deterioration.

Hydrogen Peroxide is good for your garden
From "Using hydrogen Peroxide" http://www.using-hydrogen-peroxide.com/index.html
The benefits of hydrogen peroxide for a garden can be useful for any kind of a garden, and any method of gardening. Peroxide is great for plants that are planted in the ground, and it’s also great for plants in containers -- it is useful in hydroponic gardens, raised beds, and greenhouses.
Similarly, peroxide for gardening applies well with all kinds of plants: a rose garden, herb garden, vegetable garden, orchard, shade trees, flower garden or lawn -- any or all of these would benefit from hydrogen peroxide.
Peroxide works by releasing oxygen. It acts as an oxygen supplement for plants. It seems to really support both good health and strong growth for plants.
Hydrogen peroxide can also help with soil fungus: it aerates the soil, and it is anti-fungal. (It is also anti-bacterial.)

Some info from Wikipedia on Hydrogen Peroxide
Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) is a very pale blue liquid, slightly more viscous than water, that appears colorless in dilute solution. It has strong oxidizing properties, and is a powerful bleaching agent. It is used as a disinfectant, antiseptic, oxidizerSome horticulturalists and users of hydroponics advocate the use of weak hydrogen peroxide solution in watering solutions. Its spontaneous decomposition releases oxygen that enhances a plant's root development and helps to treat root rot (cellular root death due to lack of oxygen) and a variety of other pests.[21][22] There is some peer-reviewed academic research to back up some of the claims.[23]

Outdoor cleaners that are safe for your plants
Hi Folks
I am helping to market a new line of environmentally safe cleaners called Wash Safe.
Wash-Safe uses Hydrogen Peroxide as the base for its cleaners -- you see, hydrogen peroxide also has a wonderful quality of being good for the environment ;not just safe for the enviroment but actually beneficial!!. This benefit goes deep and wide. It is good for rivers, it is good for plants, and it can be used to replace chlorine bleach, ammonia, and other chemicals which are harmful to rivers and plants.
The following quote from Wikipedia explains this "Hydrogen peroxide is a strong oxidizer effective in controlling sulfide and organic-related odors in wastewater collection and treatment systems. It is typically applied to a wastewater system where there is a retention time of 30 minutes to 5 hours before hydrogen sulfide is released. Hydrogen peroxide oxidizes the hydrogen sulfide and promotes bio-oxidation of organic odors. Hydrogen peroxide decomposes to oxygen and water, adding dissolved oxygen to the system, thereby negating some Biochemical Oxygen Demand (BOD)"
. I will be publishing more about these cleaners; but in the meantime you can learn more or try them at http://www.wash-safe-canada.com/hp.html
