What are the rules for using lichen?

The main environmental rule when using lichen is only to select and harvest lichen that is on the ground. 

What is more environmentally friendly - synthetic or natural dyes?

Jess challenged us to think about how environmentally friendly onions and red cabbage dyes are. 

Think about how we only use the onion skins, and bubble away for one hour. With red cabbage the whole cabbage is boiled for one hour. 

What do you think?
