It's Easy Being Green

Another quick steal I found.. To make the untraveled path a little more familiar & guided.. 

So I've been eye balling this book @ Dollar General now for about a month & finally decided to give it a go; I mean it was only $3.00(bucks).

I'm so glad I got it..

It's a handbook for Earth-Friendly Living

So everything from how to buy green (shows what labels to look for such as: Not tested on animals, Biodegradable, grass fed, recycled, tree free, & etc.), shopping green Online (websites w/ everything from "Urban chic fashion made of environmentally responsible materials @ coolnotcruel.com"; to body care "formulated with natural plant & fruit extracts @ babecology.com") , to Green-Living MYTHS ("It's hypocritical to advocate & practice environmentally friendly behaviors in some, but not all, areas of my life").

It provides information on where & how to take actions Online or through Public Comment Hot lines to suggest or report ways to help support "The Earth". 

For example: The "White House wants to open more Wilderness areas to oil exploration". So if you have any objections or ideas on other ways to go about the situation This Book provides ways for you to be able to get involved.

Lets just stick with the basics for now...

 Like "Buying Green"

It explains to you:

1. The Law of Green Purchasing "Buy not, Buy less, Buy green".

2. What a Green Company or Product is "Green is a generic term used to describe something that has a benign or moderate effect on the environment".

3. Eco-Labels 

(It gives you Labels & Attributes to look for).

4. Websites for Energy- & Resource- Conscious Online Ordering & Delivering

(I find this to be amazing b/c it instruct you to use the comment box on your ordering form to request used packaging).

(There is actual an extensive list (pages & pages) of websites for any & everything you can think of to shop for.

5. Decreasing usage of Power & Water 

(Includes websites to ask questions about savings on energy efficient products/ www.homeenergy.org).

Even if your expertise is on Green-Living; I feel like this book still has a lot to offer w/ plenty of go to references.

In Our Case (those reading this BLOG) We are learning, & Our Knowledge of this Lifestyle is @ an all time LOW. I feel this book is The Bible to the way of Green-Living. 

Another private way to becoming enlightened on a matter not so popular in Our Communities. Reading & self-educating is definitely a way to build confidence up to be able to speak on & convert others to becoming more aware on preserving "The Earth".

B/c the more you self educate before making it public that this is the LIFESTYLE you choose; the more others will feel comfortable about your trying to convert & enlighten them.

When you know facts & benefits on Living The Green Life you can speak confident & passionate about it.

You can began to "TEACH".
