While not 100% plastic-free, Bea Johnson's (nearly) Zero Waste Home is inspirational!  She certainly has embraced a lifestyle of wholesomeness, healthy food packaging & preparation, and an almost spartan simplicity.  Her blog on  thezerowastehome.com is well-written and full of interesting ideas.  A recent series of videos and an article on Sunset's web page might also prove interesting to many of you – (http://www.sunset.com/home/zer…..000073279/) .  And, recently the whole family was on The View – hopefully a good way to reach millions more with this message.

I know I'm inspired to use less, do more, do better, and educate others … thanks to people like Bea, and of course Beth!!!

Yes, I have found great inspiration, advice, suggestions, etc. from both Bea and Beth.  I am grateful there are others out there that can be so focused on their goal and then create a forum like this to support the rest of us!  Having long been attempting to make changes in my families lifestyle habits, I have made huge strides in the last year since I have been following both the B's!  Thanks!
