Going green is actually a pretty easy process. There is no need to stress over making big, elaborate changes, just start with baby steps! That is exactly what my family is doing. We are making small changes that will eventually add up to huge benefits! First we started recycling anything and everything that was recyclable. We cut down on our energy intake by turning everything off that was not being used and by unplugging appliances that were not being used. We have been diligently trying to conserve water by turning the faucet off while brushing our teeth and by taking no more than 10 minutes in the shower. Next, we converted our home to safer, non-caustic products. All of our cleaning and personal care products are safer for the environment, my family and my home, and they are all bio-degradable. Visit http://www.gogreentoday.info to attend a free online webinar to learn more about the benefits of going green with safer products.
There are many other, simply ways, we can all be "green." Below are just a few examples of simple changes:
1. Replace paper napkins with cloth napkins
2. Use old towels and dishrags in place of paper towels for cleaning
3. Replace light bulbs with compact fluorescent bulbs
4. Stop drinking individual water bottles
Everyone can do their part in helping to save our planet!
