TIP TOPICS -- HOUSEHOLDS & FOOD

TWO DISCUSSIONS
LED BY LIBERTY GOODWIN,
TIP DIRECTOR
First given at the Riverside & Seekonk Libraries, now available to your group.

SEE DESCRIPTION OF BOTH TALKS

FOOD FACTS & FANTASY (printable Word document)

Consumers are bombarded with information about what and how to eat. Much of this advice is conflicting or commercially motivated, some just confusing or difficult to follow. Liberty will offer simple tips on how to choose the healthiest food options and avoid those that are harmful.

COMMON SENSE ABOUT CLEANING (printable Word document)

Clear up the confusion of commercial advertising claims about cleaning products. “Green” living is about more than energy efficiency, recycling and solar panels. Human health and the environment go hand in hand. Liberty will discuss ways that household products can impact both, and will offer simple steps to a really “green” household.
