This biodegradable black mulch is made of plant-based starches and breaks down quickly, leaving behind no toxic residue. It warms the soil, helps keep produce clean, and naturally controls weeds! Each season, we eliminate the use of literal tons of plastic just on our farms alone.
This year, we are excited to support and advise an RIT team as they further exciting, Earth-friendly research and encourage wider adoption of biodegradable films! 🌎

As we rush (in the USA) unabated towards authoritarian rule………
All concerns environmental will be discarded by this bludgeoning, partisan, current government leadership.

This government is little less than an invasive illness to the body of American democracy.

That we are in this ‘place/predicament’ likely (along with other causes) is in part, a failure in education on a national scale.
We school our students, our citizens for viable economic careers while completely forgetting the critical concepts of basic citizenship.

We may pay irrevocably , for our lackadaisical national political ignorance and blundering.

As one other aspect of this president…… he has in the past had support of some faiths, however this support has been eroded by Trump’s actions, especially regarding more recent events . The Iran war.

This post is made because it is good to be aware of the broad anti-democratic , anti-environmental, anti-faith pressures that are being pressed on our democracy.

Since we know that switching to a plant-based diet has a very positive effect on mitigating climate change, we have been asked to share this message by the Rochester Area Vegan Society: For information about plant-based diet, including free programs, free recipes, and tips on how to spread the word yourself, contact the Rochester Area Vegan Society , Rochester Lifestyle Medicine Institute , or both!

Pictured : One option of many as a lease or purchase……the new ‘BZ’ it has very good distance range and it uses the highly reliable and convenient Tesla ev highway charging system.
Note:
All newer evs may be charged at home with portable 220volt chargers. Tesla as it happens, makes a very good portable charger that is adaptable to 120 or 240 volt inputs. This portable charger may be used to rapidly charge your EV at home and yet taken with you on EV distance excursions.

Charging an EV at home base:
To make things perfectly clear……..
Understand: there really is no need to install an expensive permanent, wall-mounted ev charging station at home……instead, just have a common 14-50 220v plug wired and installed by an electrician.

All newer EVs are now standardizing to to the NACS standard (the Tesla plug standard & for good reason)
Note/ Many EV sales persons … formerly fossil- fuel only sales persons, are not yet ‘up-to-speed’ on the best, least costly EV charging systems.
