​Eco Transport - When it comes to eco transportation there are many existing technologies that could be in use today as well as several very interesting technologies on the horizon. In this section we are actively looking for personal and practical eco transportation solutions from around the world.  Join us as we explore what green transportation solutions are available now and what is coming soon.

At Sustainable Living Magazine we are using our feet, bicycles or our electric vehicles to get around when ever possible. However in the past we have had to resort to fossil fuel vehicles for longer trips far to often.  Now that can change.

In the Planet Watch section we help our readers explore what is happening on earth from many perspectives. Planet Watch looks at our Climate In Crisis, our diminishing Biodiversity, the state of our Environment, from Fresh Air, Clean Water, Rich Earth to our Forests and Wildlife. We look at what is happening in our Biosphere and how it affects not only the human species, but the complex living systems that we are so dependent on.

David Suzuki reminds us that Science Matters and reflects on the world from a scientific perspective. He also looks at our culture and how it impacts both negatively and positively on our environment. Under The News we put an environmental Perspective on the latest International, National and Community news. These articles help us to stay informed about what is happening in our world.

Around the world, more than 110 nations recognize the right to live in a healthy environment, but not Canada. 
Here is a video by David Suzuki about the need for a environmental bill of rights.

​"Being green should not be a bragging point, it should be the way we all act in our everyday lives and work and play places.... Humanity has exploded in number, technological muscle power, consumptive appetite and a global economy and we are now altering the chemical, physical and biological features of the planet on a geological scale. The challenge is finding ways to live in a truly sustainable way in our home, the biosphere.” - Dr. David Suzuki

Science Matters is our column where Canada's foremost environmentalist Dr. David Suzuki shares his thoughts and insights into the state of our environment and our cultural priorities.

Eco Culture - Our future depends on our ability to develop a truly sustainable culture that is fully conscious and aware of our intimate dependence on our natural world. This is reflected in our intellectual and artistic expressions. Our Eco Culture section features reports and reviews on books in  On The Shelf , films and multi media in the Screening Room, and the arts in Eco Arts. You can also read about the greening of the Sports world and explore links to many eco cultural Online Resources. Here at SLM we celebrate and promote the growing awareness and expanding eco consciousness in our society.

Here is a video we produced for our Green Gear section about the power our choices have to effect change.

Picture


​In Green Gear we review and profile new green goods.  We want to provide the opportunity for people to have green product choices that are better for the earth and its inhabitants. Everything that is produced has an impact on the environment. We believe that when we become better educated consumers, a new appreciation of the link between products and their impact is a direct result. 

Changes in the product choices we make, will have a positive impact on the environment.  Here we take a look at a wide variety of earth-friendly products and services that meet our basic needs.  If we are conscious about our choices remembering the needs of our planet we could leave it better than we found it.  The power of our dollars can't be overstated.  If we consider our choices we could save the planet one purchase at a time.

We feel we are on a great quest pursuing the greatest mission of our lives for our planet, our home and our future. If you are interested in contributing in some way or joining our Green Team don't hesitate to contact us.
