Recess is indeed important for kids. They learn, make friends and play. But I would have to say it is also important for adults to have a break.

...Very healthy indeed- unless you are me and your back yard is 300yrds from a high volume freeway. Anything grown in my garden would require hazardous materials handling, I think.

I'm so glad you're writing about the need for healthy homes in low-income communities. This under-represented constituency in the green movement needs more voices like yours. Thanks.

The same goes for keeping chickens - many municipalities don't allow it. But with the Age of Cheap Oil coming to a close, people are going to begin calling on their gov't/HOA to ditch these frivolous regulations, I suspect. It is high time for a realignment of priorities, is it not?

I'm stunned that drying your clothes outside is illegal in some places. I've seen some people be very disrespectful to their neighbors in this regard but I also think it can be done in a private section of your yard without trampling on the integrity of the surroundings. It does save a lot of electricity and there's nothing like the smell of fresh air on sheets.

Wow, I too was not aware of all the energy it takes while I peruse online. Thanks for posting. Way to go for Google, I have heard how they were particippating in the 100 mile food club and about thier envoronmental friendly office practices. It will be great to see more of this catch on at other businesses!

Whew, when I think of the time I spend on the computer, moving back and forth--window shopping, blogging, banking--I feel like I am not wasting any energy at all. Yet when I drive, I always feel guilty.

Good post. Gets me thinking...
