Mrs. Cara Dafforn posted a blog postA Lady of Charity in Mourning
The American Civil War claimed the lives of over 622,000 men between 1861-1865. 210,000 were Hoosiers or called Indiana Home. With the heavy toll of war a Lady of Charity from 1865 would be in mourning over her family, friends and on April 15, 1865 we would grieve the death of our commander and chief President Lincoln. The mourning period for women lasted for at least one year and could continue for up to two and a half years. Mourning was done for different amounts of time determined by…See More

The Case Against CAFOs in Indiana
There are already far too many protections and allowances for the many CAFO’s in our state. A CAFO was proposed 2 years ago in Lakeville and our community rejected it. The CAFO would have released liquid manure into near surface groundwater. When stormwater reaches high levels in areas of near surface groundwater, karst, or other fragile lands, existing IDEM rules mandating manure lagoons to contain the waste are NOT adequate and the waste can overflow into nearby surface waters or groundwater. Methane emissions are huge from CAFO’s. A major contributor to climate change, methane is several times more of a concern than fossil fuel emissions....continue reading
First Green Tip for January, 2015
BUY RECYCLED PAPER PRODUCTS, such as greeting cards, paper plates, paper towels, computer paper, envelopes, gift wrapping, etc. It’s good that we all recycle our waste paper, but if there’s no market for the recycled product the system won’t work. Besides, using recycled paper products vastly reduces the amount of trees that are destroyed, and trees are crucial for absorbing CO2 from the atmosphere. Forests around the world are being decimated at a prodigious rate. “If every household in the U.S. replaced just one package of 40 paper plates made from virgin fiber with 100% recycled ones, we could save...continue reading
Climate Clues
You can’t tell anything about the climate by just looking out your window at the conditions in your backyard. Likewise you can’t tell anything about the global climate by looking only at the conditions in Indiana. Jeff Dukes, Purdue professor and director of the university’s Climate Change Research Center, tells how 2014 was relatively cool in Indiana but other parts of the United States were clearly warmer in 2014 and globally it was one of the warmest years on record. Check the Indiana Public Media website for the full article. Submitted by: Dick Sprague Regional Coordinator AndersonThe Butler Way Guides Butler University to Substantial Sustainable Changes
On April 16th, 2012 Butler University President, James Danko, signed the American College & University Presidents’ Climate Commitment (ACUPCC) in reflection of The Butler Way – Butler’s “long-standing commitment to selflessness and integrity.” The ACUPCC commitments are mapped out in the Butler Sustainability and Climate Action Plan (BUSCA) as a guideline as it grows and implements its new strategic plan, Butler 2020. The goal of the Butler Sustainability and Climate Action Plan is to achieve institutional climate neutrality by 2050 by mitigating campus greenhouse gas emissions associated with energy consumption of the university. The plan outlines current initiatives, strategies, and...continue reading

More on glass recycling
Another response to a previous question regarding recycling frame glass [http://www.indianalivinggreen.com/through-a-glass-badly/]:
I am guilty of putting large pieces of glass into the recycling bin — they must have a way to deal with broken glass because with all the combining of trash. There’s no way glass doesn’t get broken in [...]
