Living Green
What does living green mean anyway?!? Well it means a lot of things, but simply put, it can be defined as reducing the negative human impact on the environment through eco-friendly living habits. For example, I'm sure you've heard of reusing grocery bags or recycling electronics or purchasing compact fluorescent lightbulbs. These things all have to do with reducing our environmental footprint and are therefore very important. Below you'll find some helpful information on green living as well as some great resources. Enjoy!
Remember: Being green does not mean being perfect and changing every one of your habits. If everyone does a little part, a huge difference will be made.
If every American recycled just one-tenth of their newspapers, we would save about 25 million trees a year. (statistic provided by Eco-Statistics)
