Eco Living Weekly Digest #6
Eco Living Weekly celebrates our collective efforts to live more harmoniously on Mother Earth, and walks hand-in-hand each week with @ecotrain's other curation, Eco Village News. It's a "best of" from posts on the steem blockchain this past week which have used the #ecotrain tag.
What kind of content will get you curated here? Practical, thoughtful, creative and personal posts about literally Making the World a Better Place. From recycling, art, natural health and organic-permaculture to eco-travel, creating change, spirituality, art-poetry-music, natural food preparation and growing-storing-preserving your food and natural medicine. Please attribute quoted material and images which aren't your own, and be thoughtful. You need to use the #ecotrain tag to be considered for an upvote. And please make at least part of your post in the English language - we MANUALLY curate so we need to be able to understand the gist of your post.
We DON'T require you to delegate to @ecotrain, but we'd ask you to please consider it. You can take it back at any time, no questions or stress. Delegation is nothing more than a LOAN of your SP so we can give YOU juicier upvotes. It's a no brainer, really. We also don't REQUIRE you to upvote or support others (all too school-marmy for us!) but, again, we'd ask you to simply give to others what you' like to receive, which is a generous upvote and a thoughtful comment.
MUCH APPRECIATION for the wonderful posts this week.
Please: read, upvote, comment, resteem the posts we've selected for you. And start writing YOUR next @ecotrain post.

Eco Living means eating what Mother Earth offers you from her bounty. For @senorcoconut, this week, it was acorns!! Follow his process from gathered, fallen acorns to yummy gluten free pancakes. This is a skill and a level of know-how many of us are going to need sooner than later.

Think you don't have space to grow a garden and help green the world? Check out what @olivia08 is doing in Saudi Arabia in the midst of seriously hot urban concrete with some space her boss has allowed her to use since 2009.
@eco-alex
Is convenience really convenient?
Convenience seems to be the divergent point between eco-living and rampant, destructive capitalism. @eco-alex asks some great questions about convenience and happiness, and challenges us to consider the price of convenience.
@thebigsweed
In Search of More Sugar Maple Trees
Freshly tapped organic maple syrup? Oh yeah!! @thebigsweed adn @farm-mom have been out in the woods showing us how to collect fresh syrup from the sugar maples. Wow! This is an eco-living definitely worth having! Yum!
@thegreens
So much focus on PLANTING trees, does anyone even go back and see if any of them survived? @thegreens did! And it's looking great! 7 years after they planted trees and shrubs at CBC Menda Primary School in Bamenda, Cameroon, West Africa, they went back for a look-see. Check it out!
@imransoudagar
