environmental movement: Encyclopedia II - Menstrual cup - Insertion removal and cleaning

Menstrual cup - Bell-shaped cups. The different brands of bell-shaped cups all vary slightly in their design and size. The most significant difference is between The Keeper which is made of latex rubber and The DivaCup and The Mooncup which are both made of medical grade silicone. Women with an allergy or sensitivity to latex should obviously not use The Keeper. Another difference is that The Keeper comes with a very long tab allowing you to customize it for a higher or lower pl ...

environmental movement: Encyclopedia - Segregated cycle facilities

Segregated cycle facilities may consist of a separate road, track, path or lane that is designated for use by cyclists and from which motorised traffic is generally excluded. There are various types of cycle facility and different countries use differing, often legally defined, terms to distinguish them. In essence, segregated cycle facilities fall into two categories; "Off-road" and "On-road". The term "cycle path" is sometimes used as a blanket term for any off-road device. Caution is required when approaching discussi ...

environmental movement: Encyclopedia - Appropriate technology

Appropriate technology in a most basic sense means suitable technology. In practice, it is often something that might be described as using the simplest and most benign level of technology that can effectively achieve an intended purpose. Definitions differ, however, among those theorists, writers, and practitioners who use the term. The term has often, though not always, been applied to the predicaments of developing nations or underdeveloped rural areas of industrialized ...

environmental movement: Encyclopedia - Conservation movement

The Conservation movement seeks to protect plant and animal species as well as the habitats they live in from harmful human influences. The contemporary environmental movement and the Conservation movement have grown together in modern times, as the Sierra Club and Audubon Society have come to reflect the broader ethics of a more diverse society. It continues to admire and use nature, and assign it varying ethical significance. Today it is more correct to say that there is no clear distinction between the conservation ...

environmental movement: Encyclopedia II - Menstrual cup - Usage

Menstrual cups are worn inside the vagina. They are not porous, absorbent or fibrous, so the cup will not scratch or dry the vaginal walls, disrupt the vagina's natural self-cleaning ability, become difficult to remove if worn during the lightest part of a woman's period or leave fibers behind. (This is dependent on the menstrual cup's material as well. Cups made of latex rubber have some small degree of risk that bacteria will embed itself in the cup surface. This is not true for silicone menstrual cups) Nor have they been linked to toxic s ...

Intense debate surrounds all aspects of organic farming and organic food. Environmentalists, food safety advocates, various consumer protection, social justice and labor groups, small independent farmers, and a growing number of food consumers - among others - are ranged against agribusiness and many existing and proposed government agricultural policies.
