WHY SHOULD I “GO GREEN” ? The truth is that everything single thing we do every
day has an impact on the planet -- good or bad. The good news is that as an individual, you have the
power to control most of your choices and, therefore, the impact you create. From where you live to what you buy or eat, and use to light your home to where and how you vacation, to how you shop or vote, you can have global impact.
Embracing a greener lifestyle isn't just about helping to preserve equatorial rain forests, it can also mean improving your health, reduce spending (especially in the long term), and, ultimately, improving your overall quality of life. All that and you can save furry animals, too.
Why wouldn't anyone want to green?
