Going green doesn’t take much out of you, and living in an environmentally-conscious home can be gratifying.
When we heal the earth, we heal ourselves,” said Professor David Orr. This statement holds a lot of weight, today more than ever, with all the incessant talk of global warming, depleting marine life, accelerated pollution levels and the increasing number of landfills. Whether we like it or not, every single person is responsible for adding to the carbon footprint in the world. So, if you’re driving to work, flying to Europe for your well-deserved holiday, painting your new home with VOC paints or simply purchasing your monthly household goods in a plastic bag—there is some amount of harm that is constantly befalling the earth. But, really, what can you do about it?
They say good starts from home, and in terms of going eco-friendly, your house is truly the best place to start. Now you may wonder: “For a working, busy man, how much can I really do?” to which we’d like to say, “A lot!” Contrary to popular belief, setting up an eco-friendly home isn’t a Herculean task; small bits of effort can go a long way.
