<\/a>We had a remarkably good time this week, especially since our feature interview was with our favorite Green Reaper, Elizabeth Fournier,\u00a0green funeral director<\/a>\u00a0and author of\u00a0All Men Are Cremated Equal: My 77 Blind Dates<\/a><\/em>. Seriously. You gotta love a woman who has a book with this title! She introduced us to a new eco-friendly way of cremation that sounds (although some of the discussion was a little more detailed than we might\u00a0have needed) like a great alternative to traditional cremation. Did you know that 16% of all mercury pollution in the air is the direct result of cremation?!? Hope you\u2019ll listen to the interview to learn more about this potential alternative known as\u00a0bio-cremation<\/a>,\u00a0resomation<\/a>, or\u00a0water resolution<\/a>. Elizabeth has a marvelous way of making an often awkward subject interesting, entertaining and a lot less creepy.<\/p>\n Green Diva Lisa did a great report on a recent road trip she took to Austin, Texas. She had taken the opportunity to write about her experience as a seasoned road warrior and offered tips on how to be as green, sustainable and healthy as possible when on the big highway. NOTE: We KNOW that the greenest way to be on the road is to STAY HOME, walk, ride a bike or take a train or bus, but let’s face it, there are times when driving is the only way to go (this road trip was one of them). GD Lisa has some good tips for staying healthy on the road.<\/p>\n Here are a couple of tips for happy, healthy road tripping<\/strong>:<\/strong> Listen to this 5-min segment on local, sustainable community \u2013 this week\u2019s discussion was about\u00a0Local trail clean ups with groups like Adopt-A-Trail, finding a local CSA & finding beautiful scenic drives for spring (even in NJ!)<\/a><\/em><\/strong>.<\/p>\n As always, please visit our website for LOTS of relevant links & resources from the show –\u00a0Green Divas website<\/a>.<\/strong><\/p>\n The Green Divas Radio Show<\/a><\/strong>, podcasts,\u00a0audio vignettes<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0blog<\/a>\u00a0posts feature fun and low-stress ways to\u00a0live a deeper shade of green, while maintaining some comfort and style.
