GREEN Living with Lauren

By: Lauren Rauschenberg
One part of keeping yourself healthy is keeping our planet healthy. Here are some tips to be more responsible:
1. Natural Beauty—Our skin absorbs everything that we put on it. Try to avoid products containing hormone-altering parabens or toxic laureth sulfates. Use organic and toxic-free products. www.cosmeticdatabase.com
2. Onions– Support farms that converts onion waste into renewable energy and high-quality cattle feed, providing hundreds of thousands of dollars in savings in annual electricity costs. www.gillsonions.com
3. Organic Foods—Eat organic foods. Foods that are free of toxins, pesticides and chemicals nourish your body. Eat only ocean friendly seafood. Blue Ocean Institute has an Ocean Friendly Seafood guide application for your smartphone. This app allows you to make the right choices about seafood and to be responsible.
4. Clean Vehicles—Drive a hybrid. Mercedes, BMW, Audi, Volvo, Honda, Lexus and Toyota are just a few of the manufacturers that offer hybrids. www.hybridcars.com
5. Clean with Green—Use green products to clean instead of using products containing high toxicity levels that can be harmful to your health and the environment. Use environmentally-friendly products.
