Breastfeeding contest. Breastfeeding is an act of green living. In Breastmilk is best -- for the Earth too!, Stefani of teensygreen asks us to consider all the resources and subsequent waste resulting from the production of artificial milk in contrast to all natural and environmentally friendly breastfeeding while writing about the Breastfeeding is Green contest. Sponsored by Nursing Mother Supplies, submit a witty catch phrase to raise awareness on how breastfeeding is great for the environment by April 30 and win a $300 dollar breastfeeding gift basket.

If you have been wondering where silicone fits into living green, MindfulMomma in Spotlight on Silicone investigates the facts about silicone and offers some interesting information.
