Green - Is it the new "black"?

Are you green? I am proud to say that we live a green lifestyle and I continue to research and make changes to become even greener. (Is greener even a word? LOL!) It seems that in our society being green is becoming the trendy thing to do. I am just happy that people are thinking twice about the decisions they make and the footprint that they are leaving.

What are some things that you and your family are doing to be crunchy?

Here are some of the things we do:
- We use CF bulbs where appropriate.
- We cloth diaper Oliver.
- I breastfeed Oliver.
- We use BPA free plastics.
- We use only natural cleaning products, laundry detergent and other household products.
- I use natural makeup.
- We recycle.
- We buy organic and local whenever possible.
- We don't blast our air conditioning and only turn it on if we are miserable.
- We reuse packaging when possible.
- We have energy star appliances.
- We do not use chemical pesticides or fertilizers.
- We use rechargable batteries when possible and rechargable lawn care toys such as the hedge trimmer and weed wacker.


Reduce - Reuse - Recycle
