Just thought I’d take a sec to point out the latest addition to my Blogroll (down there on the right-hand side): The Guardian’s extensive online section completely and utterly devoted to all things environmental. Who’d have thought those smoggy, bangers-and-mash-loving Brits would have such green hearts?

In yesterday’s post I wrote about switching my conditioner. Now it’s onto my cat’s hair — which in turn gets onto everything else. Because Sophie has grey fur, it tends to blend in with most things so I can be pretty lazy about picking it off; usually I just suck it up every week with my vacuum.
But when it clings on anything black, it seems to cling extra hard. Until now, I’ve preferred to use those sticky-tape lint rollers that really yoink up each and every last hair. Now, however, I’m switching back to the classic lint brushes, like Evercare’s Magik Lint Brush, which last pretty much forever and don’t contribute any paper waste.
I admit, it’s not as though landfills are overflowing with lint rollers, and there aren’t any lint brush activists marching the streets in protest. But this blog is about making small changes along with big ones, and today, I’m feeling the small.
