In fact, growing plants upside down has numerous benefits for both the gardener and the plants, of which includes the elimination of grueling gardening tasks such as tilling, weeding, or staking plants. Watering is much easier, and the plants are more vigorous. Since plants hang above the ground, there’s no worries associated with their fruits touching the soil, which significantly lessens the chances of rotting or attacks from pests.

Although traditionally tomato and cucumber plants are most commonly grown upside down, a wide assortment of plants can benefit from upside-down gardening, from vegetables to herbs and a variety of flowers

Indeterminate types, by contrast, have more flexible, sprawling stems that produce fruit throughout the season and are less likely to be harmed by gravity.

# Plastic bags consume scarce resources and create pollution littering streets, beaches, trees and waterways.

# Plastic bags are perceived as disposable and are an impediment to San Francisco’s 75% landfill diversion by 2010 and zero waste by 2020.

# Plastic bags are difficult & costly to recycle – it costs more to process and recycle plastic bags than other items like aluminum. More on why recycling doesn’t work here.

# San Francisco uses an estimated 180 million plastic grocery bags a year with less than 1% being recycled.

# Previous measures taken by the city to curb plastic bag consumption (e.g. retailers managed their own recycling efforts) have largely failed.

# San Francisco spends millions each year for plastic bag cleanup and related costs .

# By switching to the compostable bags the city will be conserving 430,000 gallons of oil used to make traditional bags – the equivalent of keeping 140,000 cars off the street for a day. (Jared Blumenfeld, director of San Francisco’s Department of the Environment as reported by Christian Science Monitor)

# According to the Ordinance, plastic shopping bags in the U.S. account for the felling of over 14 million trees, the use of over 12 million barrels of oil, as well as the death of over 100,000 marine animals from plastic entanglement.

WHAT / HOW?

# Ordinance is designed to reduce the detrimental environmental impact of non-compostable plastic bags and non-recyclable paper bags by (1) prohibiting the distribution of such bags as checkout bags, and (2) imposing a range of graduated penalties for stores that violate the Ordinance.

# Ordinance requires compostable plastic, recyclable paper and/or reusable bags be offered at point of sale in San Francisco stores.# Retailers responsible are grocery stores (gross sales of $2 million or more) and pharmacies with 5 or more city locations (but excluding those within hospitals).

# Violators are fined $100-$500 for infractions.

# Ordinance goes into effect in 6 months for grocery stores and 1 year for pharmacies.

Bamboo Cheese Cutting Board

Think Bamboo Inc.

Great for home, travel or that special gift

perfect smal healthy cutting board

All the benefits of end grain butcher block construction, in a much handier size. This will be the first board you reach for any time you need to make some quick cuts. Butcher blocks are extra durable cutting boards, and they are easier on sharp knife edges because instead of crushing up against the grain, the knife edge actually slips between the wood grain. Less knife marks shop in the board as well, because instead of severing wood fibers as you cut, the knife just pushes them temporarily to the side. If you use a butcher block style cutting board for most of your cutting, your knives will stay sharper for longer.
