Our school has a fabulous garden program, but we lack a sustainable way to water our crops. We won a 'Build Your Block' contest from Umpqua Bank and are matching the $10,000 we won with $5000 we earned in the Greenworks 'Walk to School' contest to create a cistern for our veggie...

Rain falls from the sky, but rarely when your thirsty summer plants need it!
Rather than rely on water from a faucet next summer, why not capture some free rain now? Put in rain barrels or create a garden that can take advantage of this precious resource!
Record your rainwater adventures he...

If you have a car, it's so easy to just hop in and run errands. Sometimes quick convenience becomes a habit and it's good to shake things up!
This project aims to get you out of your single-occupancy car. For a trip that you were planning to do by car,...

So I read an article in Sunset Magazine about a woman in California who, come trash day, has NO TRASH AT ALL. I mean nothing. Zip. Zero. NADA. My thoughts ranged from curiosity, to sympathy (she must have issues), to revulsion, to defensiveness (we have LOTS of recycling, thank you very ...

Craft Centre
(kid-led)
by Isabel S.
Everyone should have a Craft Centre. It is a place where you would put old things that you don't need like cans, containers, used tooth-brushes, toliet-paper roles, old sponges, old chopsticks. Then one day one of these things might come in handy. For example my Mom made an advent calender out...

Storm Drain Cleaning
(kid-led)

Go outside with a rake and maybe a shovel and try to clear up all the clogged up storm drains. If you don't there might be big puddles in the streets and cars will go through them and splash pedestrians.
It's fun and wet!!
So far, our number of drains they cleaned is 7.

Go local for food, services, and work as much as possible. Buying working and hiring local saves fuel, water and cuts down on pollution, while boosting the local economy! Our country is about to implode on itself, relocalization is key to reversing the downward spiral.

Prevent Stray Animals
(kid-led)
by Emma S.
There are millions of unwanted of stray dogs and cats in the USA.They can reproduce quickly and then they could be abandoned.
But, if you get your dog or cat spayed or neutered, it will help the situation. Both of my pets are. Sure, Inky acted a little crazy at first, but he mellowed out afte...

Dana sent this document to some of us earthbongo creators, and I wanted it to have a wider audience. This is an amazing, beautiful guide to greening your own environment and learning about Wangari Matthai's Greenbelt Movement. The photos alone will knock your socks off.

That wonderful stuff you add to your potting mix is actually a thousand years old sphagnum moss. They are digging up irreplaceable peat bogs for your gardening pleasure. Better choices are coconut coir and compost. Some New Zealand farmers are harvesting peat in a sustainable way but how wo...
