Loading ...Living green is an ongoing interest of mine. I’m not a huge expert, but I enjoy learning new ways I can contribute to helping the planet get healthy again and leaving our future generations a livable and natural environment.
One of my dreams is to eventually have our home outfitted with solar panels; maybe even figure out how our community can harness wind power and "grow" our own alternative, self-sufficient energy sources.
I’m becoming more and more conscious about the consumer products I use such as household cleaners. I really like the Method products for their earth-friendly solutions, fresh and unique scents, and stylish packaging. I love that!
Recently, I finally got all the bulbs in our house replaced with the energy-efficient flourescent ones.
One thing I’m trying to figure out is a greener alternative to garbage bags. It’s an easy thing to bring our own fabric bags to the grocery store, and in a pinch use paper over plastic from the store. However, I don’t know what to do about garbage bags.
We’ve always used the plastic grocery sacks from the store as our kitchen garbage bags. And given where we live, it’s simply not practical to use paper because it gets wet and the bottom breaks too easily.
So what’s the solution? If you have any ideas, I’d love to hear from you.
