Green Living & Resources

-- Quote of the Day --

“…Green product purchasing doesn’t mean we encourage over consumption – but there are products that you do need and we help to direct people to better choices… than just the mainstream products that we may be used to. …Often people would tell me ‘this is a green product’ but I would be wondering WHY that product was green. …We do a number of things to green our shipping we default to ground shipping because it is the most efficient per order. We use 100% reclaimed boxes and packaging materials (from neighbors, friends, companies) and use that for our shipping. We also purchase carbon offsets for the shipping involved in purchasing on BuyGreen.com. And actually – there have been studies that show how shopping online can actually reduce one’s carbon footprint. …Going green doesn’t have to be done all at once; it can be done one step at a time.” ~ Allison Huke Sept 15 – 2009

Today's quote was excerpted from a fascinating interview with Allison Huke in which she shared information on her belief that green living doesn't have to be overwhelming, that we can start with one simple, small step - and take the journey one step at a time.
