I try to get everything used these days. Also, I’ve just learned to say no to my impulse to buy a whole lot more. Being broke has helped a lot in that department.

My best advice is taking a few small steps at a time. It can feel so overwhelming to try to “go green” all at once. I make a plan with reasonable goals. I have a list of many of the different ways to have a greener home such as using energy efficiency bulbs, using eco friendly cleaning products, etc.
I check off a few items each month to see how much progress I’ve made. This gives me a feeling of accomplishment and lets me see what my next step is toward my greener home.
This ensures that my plan for a greener home will succeed, then doing it haphazardly.

Reduce your consumption and waste. There are many, many ways to do this. Grow and make as much of your own food as possible, compost, eliminate use of paper goods and switch to cloth, move your thermostat up or down a few degrees to accommodate the seasons, reuse every thing–print on both sides of paper, reuse containers, etc.

My best tip for a greener and healthier home would be to invest in a shoe mat and take your shoes off either before or right when you enter your home. You will be reducing the dirt and toxins you drag from the outdoors throughout your house

we use mason jars to store our grains, legumes, etc. This way we can see what we have and nothing goes to waste. We use reusable sacks and buy from bulk bins.

With a baby in the house, we have gone green with a vengeance, trying to maximize our use of friendly products. That means a lot when one realizes that *everything* goes in a baby’s mouth. Of course, rugs are particularly challenging to clean, so you never have enough of them….

Keep chemicals to a minimum, and store them in a place away from food and play areas with clear labels that the kids can identify as things they should not touch. Indulge your inner botanist and bring as many plants as you can in and around the areas where you spend time. It makes the air feel better, and it makes everything look a little nicer too. If you can’t afford a tropical forest, plant some grass seed in some low, wide planters. Kids love to use it as a stage for their small toys to play on, and it looks modern and fresh. Open up the doors and windows as often as possible, and breathe it in. It’s tough to remember to do so on a work day when everything seems overwhelming, but its the best remedy for a long day and a commute.

My best tip on how we can make our homes greener and healthier places to live would be to follow the maxim of “reduce, reuse, and recycle”! Really, the top priority ought to be that we reduce our overconsumption of goods!
