Green, Green, Green

‘Going green’ seems to be the newest trend these days, but how many people are really going green? Many people are using the bad economy as an excuse for why they haven’t picked up any green habits. They think in order to make a real difference they have to buy a hybrid car or solar panels for their house. I think part of it is just an excuse because they are just too lazy to research and find out how much of a difference they could make — and the other part is they just don’ t want to change their lifestyles. There are many simple changes people can make in their everyday lives that really wouldn’t effect or change the way they live. There are also many simple changes people can make to their homes that can make a difference.

Before you go out to buy a new vacuum or bed sheets, check out this great website: The Green Guide. They have advice and reviews about many products and services that offer eco-friendly options for your home. It also covers green tips for personal care, travel, kids, and food. Simple and free advice on becoming a little greener! Enjoy!

The home was originally renovated 10 years ago.  The new owner thought the home was too dark and felt the need to bring in more natural light. Check out the rest here!
