As an eco-friendly consumer and an eco-conscious person I find that living this lifestyle is all about balance. When someone asks me what they can do to help lower their carbon footprint, I can talk about changing habits, lowering energy usuable, buying sustainable products but the fact is that sometimes we cannot change certain things without sacrificing the person we are inside. For example, I use recycled products where possible, I strive to reduce, reuse and recycle, we're a vegetarian family, we conserve energy, compost, grow our own food and yet people are shocked when we tell them that we dirtbike as a hobby. After all dirtbiking damages the environment, it pollutes, ...

FRESH PLANTS / FLOWERSLive or cut, a bunch of flowers can add beauty to your space as well as purifying the air. They have been known to neutralize the air by removing the formaldehyde given off by furniture or kitchen cabinets made with fiberboard. Live rubber plants, azaleas, and bamboo palms ...
For all those that take time to do their part to help the environment, be mindful of what you do with the rest of your time.
A new study at the University of Toronto concludes that people who often act in a 'green' and eco-friendly way on a day to day basis, are more likely to practice acts of subversion and social deviance, such as cheating or stealing.
Two professors from The Rotman School of Business, Nina Mazar and Chen-Bo Zhong, initiated the study, an idea they had based ...
In the midst of the holidays this year or if you're simply in the need of a great gift idea you may want to consider what you can give to friends, family, and co-workers that:
(1) they will use,
(2) will make them happy,
(3) will keep your holiday budget manageable, and
(4) is good for the environment.
My advice is to hop onto ECOBAGS.com and order a stack of reusable bags to give away. They even do custom print orders for you if you’d like to add a cute saying, a ...
Have you been on a quest to find the best natural deodorant for you that does not contain parabens or aluminum? My goal has been to find products made with natural ingredients, that are not tested on animals, and that make me feel like I am making a difference.
Aluminum is the ingredient in antiperspirants and deodorants that stops you from sweating – or glistening if you’re a lady (as my mother used to say). It’s very good at what it does so finding a product that has to figure out how to stop us from sweating naturally is difficult and in my opinion has not yet been mastered. So, there comes a ...

Journals are great to keep on hand for those who need to get their thoughts out on paper or even for those who are trying to keep track of what they eat and or how much they exercise daily. Journals also make a great gift for the young teenagers in our lives. The only problem is that journals aren't exactly very high up on the list of environmentally friendly products. Well, guess what? They are definitely making their way there now. Journals have evolved greatly. There are journals made from recycled paper all the way to journals made from banana (my personal favorite) and coffee ...
Here are the current results from last week's poll:
Judging by the votes it appears that while a few were enjoying their vegetable gardens this summer most of you weren't. That's okay, though. Gardening is not for everyone, especially vegetable gardens. The best fix for this is to simply purchase organic vegetables when possible and, of course, purchase locally grown vegetables as well.
