Conventional Pesticides

Conventional pesticides are not only highly toxic to us, our pets, our neighbors, and the environment, but they are also unnecessary.  In 2018 Cornell University tested homes for these powerful herbicides and pesticides and found each one in every home they tested:

  • ❌ 2,4-D

  • ❌ GLYPHOSATE

  • ❌ BIFENTHRIN

  • ❌ MCPP

  • ❌ PENDIMETHALIN

  • ❌ IMIDACLOPRID

  • ❌ TRIFLURALIN

  • ❌ MALATHION

Artificial Turf

❌ Avoid Turf linked to toxic chemicals. All artificial turf is made with toxic PFAS compounds and some types are still produced with recycled tires that can contain heavy metals, benzene, volatile organic compounds and other carcinogens, and a growing number of US municipalities and states have banned or proposed banning them.

Boston bans artificial turf in parks due to toxic ‘forever chemicals’

 

Organic Gardens and Parks

If you need expert guidance, resources, education, and information for your garden or for your city's parks to reach the Non-toxic Communities.  The president is Diana Carpinone, a national expert in removing harmful pesticides from our environment. I am excited to collaborate with her to remove pesticides from the parks of Beverly Hills!

For other information check AGZA 

Parks are places where we can all relax, have recreational experiences, and regenerate. Enjoy the green space and the healing effects that only nature can offer. We regenerate physically and mentally when in contact with nature. That is the way it is supposed to be, but when we are spending time in parks covered by pesticides we are getting intoxicated by the chemicals.

 

 

We should not be concerned for the kids playing around or for our dogs, we should be able to walk barefoot if we want to or have a picnic without concern about what we get in contact with and free to lay down on green grass and hug the trees to get their powerful therapy.

Nature is generous to us and we should protect it instead of covering and suffocating it with unnecessary harmful chemicals that are making someone these chemical companies rich.

A park that is free of pesticides offers a safer and healthier environment for people and wildlife alike, without the risks associated with toxic chemicals. Pesticides can contaminate the soil and water, killing off important insects and wildlife and contributing to the park's biodiversity. Without pesticides, the park can also offer a more vibrant and diverse landscape, providing a natural habitat for various species. Enjoying a pesticide-free park promotes a healthy ecosystem, a beautiful and welcoming landscape, and a safer and more enjoyable experience for everyone.

"We believe that all communities have the right to be healthy.  This means clean air, clean water, and an environment free from toxic chemicals. We support citizens to advocate for public health where they live."

Organic Miracle-Gro Composter 

I just started to compost.

🍃Composting can reduce garbage waste by up to 30% 

🍃Composting can reduce yard waste by 50% to 75%.

🍃Composting cuts down on chemical pesticide and fertilizer use.

To learn the basics on how to compost I recommend this page.

to turn your waste in garden gold directly in your balcony, patio, garden, porch, or rooftop garden in just 4-6 weeks.

Choose a composter that is BPA-free, food-grade, UV-protected plastic, which means you won’t need to worry about harmful toxins, like this one.

Then there is my favorite influencer's blog: Ecological.ly beginners guide to worm composting at home. Here her tips: "Compost is made up of a combination of “browns” and “greens.” Your “browns” are carbon-based items e.g paper, cardboard, newspaper, and dry leaves. Your “greens” are nitrogen-based and are food scraps like stale bread, vegetable peelings, and coffee grounds...A balanced compost requires a  2:1 brown: green ratio...

  1. Don’t add meat, dairy, or grease. They tend to smell quite rancid before they break down and can attract pests.

  2. Don’t compost onions and citrus. Worms are not fans of citrus, or even slightly acidic vegetables and so I also only add small amounts of leftover tomato.

If you are in the LA area check: 

🍃 lacompost.org/  Compostable LA is a small business partner of LA Compost’s. For $30-$45 a month, depending on pick up frequency, the Compostable LA team will collect your food scraps directly from your home. Here is their guide.
