Green Your Home With Help
If you have ever wanted to green you home, in more ways then one, but don’t know where to start, there is help out there.
Green Home- the environmental store- can give you tips on every room in you house, from the children’s rooms to the basement.
Here are a few examples I just love:
Children’s Room: Polyester is a plastic that does not absorb perspiration and permanent press sheets are often treated with formaldehyde. Green Home suggests replacing polyester, polyester blend, or permanent press bedding with 100% organic cotton that has not been chemically treated. “Click Here For More.”
Bathroom: Conventional cotton towels are produced using 24% of the world’s chemical pesticides and fertilizers, yet occupies only 3% of the world’s farmland. Green Home recommends using towels made from 100% chemically untreated cotton. “Click Here For More.”
Green Home has all types of articles on greening your home, your pets and your car. Check out these other links to help you green up.
*Natural and Sustainable Living Tip: Always wash your clothes in cold water. The most energy that your washer ever uses is heating the water up every time you wash. If you always wash your clothes in cold water, the less energy your washer has to use to get that water hot. Some stains call for hot or warm water, but if you use a pretreater, most stains will come out with cold water.
