In my opinion Going Green means doing things that save money, saves natural resources and helps you to live a healthier and happier life. There are many small changes you can make in your lifestyle that don’t cost anything yet helps the environment such as car pooling, walking to the store once in awhile rather than driving or turning the television off for one night a week and playing board games with the family! You may have so much fun that you will wonder why you haven’t done this before. Living Greener around your home is not difficult or expensive, you can use grey water to water outside landscaping simply by running a garden hose from your washing machine! Take it a step further and you can start a small vegetable garden using grey water and benefit in a few months with fresh veggies that you and your kids grew together. Lighting is another way to GO Green. Placing solar lighting along pathways and garden areas is a great money saver, and not a lot of expense to purchase them.
Going Green at the office is another way to cut expenses by doing the little things that really add up over time, for instance, stop buying the paper or foam coffee cups and have office workers bring a favorite cup from home. You can purchase funny cups for each personality for the same amount a case of foam cups cost and never buy them again. Purchase small kitchen towels and stop buying paper towels, cloth napkins instead of paper. Try these office tips and give your office a more homey atmosphere and up productivity in employees, a win win situation.
