A Greener You

About the Book

Here in this guide you will find the most up-to-date links to websites that are dedicated to the environment. You can do something that has a greater impact on your environment. You will be able to make more sense of recycling codes, carbon offsets, and alternatives that are available for clean energy with solar or wind turbines. You can find services available to recycle your cell phone. Do you have the ability to carpool, or bicycle to work? If you think about all the small things you could alter in your life if it were just high enough up on your agenda, you can make time to steward your planet when it is on your watch. I believe all of us have a responsibility for this planet. Every small change we can make is an investment in our future. It is no new news that global warming is evident and is not reversing. All of us have heard of the polar ice caps melting. Learning is the key to developing a sense of the need to become a “greener” you. I hope to encourage everyone who hears about this book to make one new change in the way you live. Start recycling, begin to refuse those plastic bags at the store, (Do you always need one?) reuse, reduce, and be as green as you can be.

About the Author

I am a mother of 3. I live about 35 miles west of St Louis, MO. I have a wonderful husband of 16 years. I care for infants and toddlers for moms like me full time. Each time I thought to myself, why don’t people recycle? Why do people just use so much more than they have to without realizing what damage is being done? I would consider maybe people don’t know where to start or how important just doing something instead of nothing is. I had so many ideas every day. I thought compiling all of my thoughts and links to information in a manual, if you will a guide to being green. I learned everything I know searching for answers to questions that interested me. I would like to encourage the world to recycle all they can, waste less, and do more of what it takes to reduce fuel consumption, and reduce emissions
