Reminder - EcoParents is meeting on Tuesday, Jan 20 at 6:30-8:30 pm at Linden Hills Park. Our topic will be "Household Hazardous Waste - What it is, How to reduce it, and How to properly dispose of it." Our guest speaker will be Sandra Nussbaum from Hennepin County.
We will also be making our own non-toxic household cleaners at the meeting, so we don't have to purchase commercial (and often chemical-laden) cleaners! All supplies will be provided, as well as 'recipes' for making additional cleaning products from non-toxic (or less toxic) ingredients.
Linden Hills Natural Home has donated an assortment of non-toxic cleaners, which we will give away at the meeting to participants. So, come for a chance to win! And thanks to Natural Home!
It might not sound exciting or sexy, but it is one of the most important topics we'll cover this year. Increasing our understanding about household hazardous waste has the greatest potential for reducing negative environmental impacts and well as reducing our families' exposure to toxic materials.
See you Tuesday!
