Green Home and Garden

If you’re like most Americans, a good deal of your time is spent at home. Whether you’re sleeping, eating or just relaxing, there are many choices you can make to live the Green Life. Visit the links in the left column to see, Green Furniture, Green Fixtures, Green Flooring, Green Landscaping, Green Cleaning, Green Linens and Green Accessories.

Here are some great ways to Green our planet by making your home more “green-friendly”.

  • Use ceiling fans in the summer AND winter. By reversing the direction of the blades, warm air is pushed down, helping to keep rooms warm in winter.
  • Turn down the thermostat. Lowering it by just one degree can reduce heating energy costs by about four percent.
  • Conserve energy by purchasing major appliances with an Energy Star rating. Compared to a 1990 model, an Energy Star-qualified refrigerator would save enough electricity to light a home for more than four and a half months.
  • Repair leaky fixtures: one drop per second from a leaky faucet can waste as mush as 10 gallons of water each week.
  • Install low-flow shower heads, faucets, and toilets. Low-flow faucets reduce water consumption and the cost of heating water by as much as 50 percent; using a low-flow toilet can save Americans 2.1 trillion gallons of water and $11.3 million nationwide every day.
  • Purchase carpeting, rugs, window treatments and other textiles made from natural fibers, such as cotton or wool, which are untreated and free of toxins, such as pesticides or chemical cleaners.
  • Purchase flooring products made from rapidly renewable resources, such as bamboo. Bamboo is one of the fasted growing plants in the world, requiring no replanting and little fertilization or pesticides.
  • Select solid woods harvested from sustainably-managed forests, when possible, for furniture or cabinetry, rather than pressed woods or composites that may contain formaldehyde or other chemicals that may be toxic and hazardous to your health.
  • Eliminate waste by choosing products that are biodegradable or recyclable. Consider the “lifecycle” of furnishings and accessories before purchasing: Are they made of materials that can be reused or recycled when the item eventually wears out or is no longer needed?
