One of the most interesting home products I’ve found on the market today are Eco Balls (also called Washballs or Aquaballs). If you have a large family like mine, the amount of laundry soap and energy used by the washing machine is pretty huge, and obviously not good for the environment, as well as our [...]

I am sure you’ve heard about the people who do not believe that global warming is real. The fact is that there are a lot of people who are not convinced enough that going green is a good idea. These people usually have arguments that keep them from “crossing over.” Let’s do some green myth-busting, [...]
Previously we asked you what your carbon footprint was. Well as we’re bloggers, maybe we should start with the very activity that we are doing at this minute- blogging! J.
