Preservatives for Fruit Sauce?

I am making a passionfruit sauce that i am storing in glass bottles.

This is the best way without adding any chemicals to your sauce.

Place food in jars. There are two methods for doing this. In the hot pack method you heat the food first in a separate pot. In the raw pack method the raw fruit is added directly to the jars. It is okay to prepare many foods using the raw pack method, but for some foods, the heat process will not be sufficient.

Now pour boiling water, broth, juice or syrup over the food in the jar. When packing the food and adding water, be sure to allow for expansion by leaving some space in the neck of the jar. The amount of space to leave varies from a fraction of an inch for jams to slightly over an inch for low acid fruits and vegetables.

Use a paper towel to wipe off the sealing edge of the jar. Now place lids on top of jars; remember to leave enough give to let air escape during the sterilization process. There are various types of lids, some are self-sealing which means that they can be tightened firmly before sterilization.

Can one person make a difference regarding the environment?

I was reading an article in Sunday’s Houston Chronicle on a professor from the University of Texas named Eric Pianka, who in regards to caring for the environment, and lessening one’s imprint on the earth, stated that it more or less doesn’t really matter. Quoting the article, “In truth, it backfires”, and “when you walk or ride a bike or drive a Prius, all you do is encourage some expletive out there to drive a Hummer or an Excursion.”

everyone can make a difference to his or her own environment and to their local environment

decide what kind of environment you want, and then work to get there

I agree with your professor that if lots of people choose to use less of a certain thing, say gasoline, that will move to reduce the price of gasoline and therefore someone else may use more than they would have if the price were higher

but it doesn’t actually balance, most people don’t want to drive a hummer and won’t no matter how cheap gas is

It is equally true that the decisions that everybody makes matters and you are part of everybody. If everybody chose as you choose, then you would get the results you choose, so by making that choice yourself and encouraging it in others, you do in fact make a difference

It is a corallary to the “prisoner’s dilemna” to say that since others might make a choice I disagree with, I will do so also.
