3 Ways to be a Green & Natural Mama Activist Right Now
1. Ask your Senator to co-sponsor the Breastfeeding Promotion Act today!This will take 10 seconds of your time. Click on this MomsRising link to petition your Senator. Wouldn't our world be a better place if we all had the following?
HR 2758 would increase breastfeeding in this country by giving all mothers who want to breastfeed unpaid time and private, clean spaces to express milk at work. The bill would also protect breastfeeding women from being fired or discriminated against in the workplace. If breastfeeding is made more accessible and acceptable in the workplace, more mothers are likely to provide such crucial nourishment to their children.
2. Support the Climate Reality Project!
Climate Reality Project is hosting 24 Hours of Reality September 14th-15th. This will be a global, live-streamed event, for 24 hours, in 24 different places - Al Gore along with 23 other speakers will be discussing climate change and dispelling false claims made by its deniers.
