Welcome to "Living Green!"
"Green" has become such a buzzword lately, I almost hate to use it. To my mind, "green" or "eco" living is simply sensible living.
When we live green, we free ourselves from many of the negative aspects - the garbage and waste - of modern life. It's a way to center ourselves and lead a more balanced, healthier lifestyle. And (despite the high cost of organically-grown food) green living is very often cheaper living - which frees us up financially, too!
Although I'm no saint when it comes to treading lightly on the Earth, I have, over the years, picked up a number of good habits and quite a few kernels of knowledge. And this seems like as good a time as any to spread them around.
I hope that "Living Green" will:
- Encourage those of you thinking about making the switch to a more sustainable lifestyle to "just do it!"
- Provide practical suggestions anyone can use to make their lives a little greener
- Open up a green "idea exchange"
- And give those of us who've been at it a while a little extra reminder that we're on the right track. (To put it nicely. In other words, sometimes we all need a little kick in the butt to remember to do the right thing. Myself very much included.)
