how to eat THE VIEW

for a healthier body and planet
I
t’s always nice when a win in one area of your life leads to another win – and that’s exactly what happens when you make eco-friendly food choices. Your body benefits from more nutritious meal ingredients, while the impact to the planet is minimized thanks to sustainable growing and production processes. Here are some tips to help you get started:
grow your own produce garden
Long shipping distances contribute to higher carbon emissions, so the closer to home your food is grown the better for the environment. And what could be closer than your own backyard? Spinach, strawberries and bell peppers are some of the easier things to grow. If you lack space, even growing your own herbs in a small windowsill can make a difference. Or check out a community garden.
4Rent.ca
October 21–November 4, 2023
choose sustainable wines
It can be easy to focus on choosing sustainable local produce and
forget about the other items that go into a meal, like condiments and even wine. There are plenty of Canadian wineries leading the way with green processes, like using
2 7
energy-efficient lighting and capturing rainwater for reuse. Whether it’s for drinking or cooking, do some digging to find a sustainable local vineyard for your wine.
research brands before buying
We can’t grow everything we eat at home, so whenever you’re grocery shopping, do your research and choose products from
companies doing their part for the environment. For example, Bimbo Canada, the country’s largest and oldest commercial bakery behind popular brands like Villaggio, has strong sustainability practices. In the last year alone, it’s saved more than four million units of waste from landfills and is on track with its carbon footprint reduction goals to reduce environmental impact by 2025. ■

home organization hacks you can tackle in 15 minutes
H
ome improvement projects enhance your living spaces, but it can be hard to find the motivation to tackle bigger ones. As many of us have been spending more time at home recently, here are some ideas for smaller tasks you can do that have a big impact.
organize face masks
We all have reusable face masks lying around and keeping them tidy can be hard especially if you have a big family. Hanging shower curtain hooks on a rod on the wall by your entryway or clothes hanger in the front hall closet is a great way to store them neatly.
4Rent.ca
October 21–November 4, 2023
review your insurance
An essential part of putting your home in order is making sure you have the right insurance coverage to protect your property and belongings. “If you plan to make improvements to your living space while working from home, it’s important to take the time to review your insurance contract with your broker or agent to make sure you have the coverage you need,” says Kristen Gill, head of personal insurance at Aviva Canada. “For example, if you plan to renovate your basement, consider asking about coverage for basement flooding and how to reduce water damage risk by including a sump pump or backwater valve.”
repurpose cardboard
We’ve all been shopping online more than ever and probably have plenty of extra boxes lying around. Upcycle them by cutting into strips to serve as drawer divider inserts that can organize everything from folded clothes to kitchen utensils.
install a desk pegboard
After nearly a year of working and learning remotely, most of us have created a setup that works. But if you have papers, pens and charge cords lying around, a pegboard can help you get organized. Paint it in a fun colour that matches your décor, and hang rods, hooks and planters to sort your trinkets. ■ — News Canada

natural ways to
fight fall allergies A
s the days become shorter and the weather cools down, a new crop of allergy symptoms can arise, turning the autumn season into one marked by sneezing, scratchy throats and itchy eyes. Medications can alleviate such symptoms, but allergy sufferers may want to investigate some natural ways to beat allergies. According to the American College of Allergy, Asthma & Immunology, ragweed is one of the more common triggers of autumnal allergies. Ragweed contributes to “hay fever,” which is a term to describe allergic rhinitis that occurs as a symptom of ragweed pollen in the air. Ragweed releases pollen in mid-August, and it can continue to be problematic until a deep freeze arrives. Other sources of fall allergies include leaf mould and pollen that is
4Rent.ca
October 21–November 4, 2023
21
present on fallen leaves. This gets circulated when people begin to rake or blow fallen leaves. Classroom pets and chalk dust in schools (although chalkboards are largely a thing of the past) are other autumn allergens. The good news is that many natural remedies work just as effectively as over-the-counter medications in regards to combatting ragweed and pollen problems. Here’s how to beat the fall allergy blues.
increase omega-3 fatty acids
It is well documented that fatty acids are good for brain health and cardiovascular well-being. But these acids also may help with allergies. A German study linked foods high in omega-3 fatty acids with the ability to fight inflammation, which is a hallmark of allergy suffering. Foods that are high in fatty acids in-
clude walnuts, flax, eggs, and coldwater fatty fish.
rinse off pollen
Use a mild cleanser to rinse the eyelids and eyelashes of pollen, as this is where it tends to congregate after being outdoors. Use saline spray to clear nasal passages of excess pollen as well.
take natural supplements
A study published in the journal Clinical and Experimental Allergy found participants who used tablets of the herb butterbar showed significant allergy relief after only one week. Select herbs from reputable manufacturers who certify them.
use eucalyptus oil
This oil is great to have in the house to help clear up sinuses and provide nasal congestion relief. Mix a small
SEASONAL
amount with coconut oil and rub onto the chest. There also is some evidence that adding a few drops of eucalyptus oil to cleansing products can help kill dust mites around the house.
stay away from pollen
Stay away from pollen and prevent it from being tracked indoors. Remove shoes when walking through the door. Take off clothes worn outside and launder them promptly, showering to wash pollen off of the body. Use an air conditioner or keep windows closed when the pollen count is high.
wear a mask
When doing housework or yard work, wear a mask to reduce the inhalation of specific allergens. Avoid seasonal allergies by exploring natural ways to find prevention or relief of symptoms. ■ — Metro Creative

do this and you’re going to get
H
ave you ever seen your neighbour do something so ridiculous you wondered, “Is he trying to get evicted?” We’ve all had a lack of judgment at one point or another, but there are some actions that could seriously jeopardize your current lease. If you are actually doing this in an attempt to get out of your rental agreement, note that you do not want an eviction notice on your record. Instead, talk with your landlord to try and break your lease or look for someone to sublet your apartment. If you actually love where you live and you want to stay (I hope you do), don’t say I didn’t warn you. If you’re doing any of these things, you’re asking to get evicted.
cash flow… slow, slow, slow
Non-payment of rent is the most obvious reason for an eviction, but your landlord can also file to have you evicted for habitual late payments. Get your cash flow situation in check, stop buying shoes and pay your landlord on time.

rule breaker
Hiding that stray cat in your room when you were nine didn’t work, so don’t think you can get away with having an English Bulldog in your non-pet-friendly apartment. It may seem like you’re only breaking a small regulation, but if it’s listed in your lease agreement and you’re breaking it, it could be enough to have you evicted in some provinces. Letting it jump all over neighbours, not picking up after it and letting it cause property damage will definitely get you evicted in all provinces.
are you alone in there?
Your friend was only supposed to crash at your place for a week, but next thing you know a week becomes a month and all of a sudden he’s living with you. It’s not a big deal until your landlord finds out. The name of everyone who is living in your rental should be listed on

your lease agreement. If not, your friend might not be the only one who’s looking for a place to crash.
damage control
Things break, I get it. I know that wine stain on the carpet was an accident and you didn’t mean to rip the shower curtains. What I really want to talk to you about is that hole in the wall, which is the size of my head! I don’t even want to know how it happened, just pay to get it fixed or it can get you evicted.
noise pollution
Break-ups are tough, but it’s been two months, Johnny! The neighbours can’t deal anymore with the outrageously loud crying session, followed by an hour of heavy metal music and your rendition of Shakespeare. There is never a good reason to disturb the other tenants in your building and it could be enough to have you kicked out. ■ — Jennifer Braun October 21–November 4, 2023

moving contracts H
iring professional movers can save you a lot of work and aggravation, especially when everyone understands what’s involved. The best way to ensure that situation is for all parties to communicate effectively. From the mover’s point-of-view, having a contract that is clear and agreed upon is the number-one way to achieve success. In Ontario, service agreements with moving companies come under the umbrella of Consumer and Corporate Affairs. When we provide you with a written quote in person, by law, we cannot charge you greater than 10 per cent over the amount stipulated in the contract – unless you change the conditions of the move. At Two Men and A Truck® – Canada, we price by the hour, whatever it takes. If you call and ask to have 100 boxes moved, and we show up to find 200, of course we have to charge more than what we agreed upon. That is considered a change to the conditions of the move. Moving takes time, and there are many unexpected situations that

consider dark mode
Need to give your eyes a break? While blue light blocking glasses can help, another option is to give your
eyes a rest by catching up on email from your phone using dark mode, which will help alleviate strain as you read.

your internet plan to ensure you get good download speeds and a reliable signal. But Wi-Fi is only half the equation. Connect with an unbiased mobile expert like those at The Mobile Shop virtually or in store to make sure your mobile plan is working optimally for you right now. If you have internet issues, you may want to consider an unlimited data mobile plan, so you don’t get dropped from conference calls.
use alarms and reminders
Have you dialed in late to a virtual meeting since working from your home office? Set up reminders and alarms on your phone to add extra security for important meetings and mix in reminders to walk the dog or check in with the kids while you’re at it. Our routine has changed, we can all use an extra nudge or two.
create space
ibility if you’re having to move rooms to accommodate other family members’ schedules. That said, the quickly draining battery and constant holding can be a pain. Look for a phone stand that has a built-in charger so battery life
doesn’t slow you down and you can dial in hands free.
Wi-Fi vs data
With home now acting as everything from the boardroom to the movie theatre, it’s worth assessing
Whether we’re at home or out of the house during the day, many of us need constant access to our mobile devices, so juggling the needs of family members who may need to get connected for at-home learning can be tough. Accessories like noise-cancelling headphones and phone stands can be game-changers if you’re not able to spread out. ■ — News Canada October 21–November 4, 2023
