Greenwashing
So how have we gotten so far off course? When the label of ‘green’ was introduced, it was seen as a mission statement; something that would entitle the customer to some sense of comfort that they product they were supporting (which was usually more expensive) was working with the Earth’s best interests at heart. Instead we have simply completed a full consumerist revolution; the label has been taken, assigned a cultural identity and used to sell a piece of a lifestyle that is intended to speak more to your peers than to subsidize an environmental commitment.

That’s really cool, I never thought about making my own chalk. Thank you!

>lsf, we used to make it out of Plaster of Paris when we were kids, but eggs shells, that’s a new twist.

We never made our own, it was always store bought. But now I’m going to make some. I plan to use chalkboard paint on the front of a freezer for the grand children to play with when visiting so it will come in use often.

Since I eat many eggs a week this lesson on recycling eggs shells as chalk was rather useful.

>Alex, me too. I always throw my egg shells on the compost, but I am going to try this idea for Emmylee, she’s nearly six and would just love the idea of chalk for the pavement, etc. I hope I am not encouraging a new graffiti artist…

If you encourage a new artist into the world, well done!

[…] Make your own chalk from egg shells. Never heard of this? Me neither but I can’t wait to try it. […]
