  1. Everyone wants to know "How can ONE person make a difference?". To be honest, this isn't a one person problem. This is a worldwide problem that everyone needs to help solve.

    If you stop eating meat, big deal.. one less cow has to be reared. But if 100 people stop eating meat, that is a significant number of cows reared, land clearcut, water wasted on growing foodstocks for the cows, corn eaten by the cows, etc. That is a significant amount of resources that can be re-allocated to serve another purpose, such as the re-diversification of plant life in that area.

    The same principle applies to a million different things. Don't buy another car= less metal ore needs to be mined, less plastic needs to be manufactured, etc. etc.

    If we all team up, we can restore the diverse wildlife that onced graced the earth, and one day... we might acutally be able to see LA!!


  2. By removing chemicals from our daily life, we reduce fuel emissions, keep our water and air cleaner, save animals and plants, and SO much more! Have you ever stopped and thought about where the average person's soap suds, (which reeks with chemicals,) goes? It goes to your local water supply, which could be the ocean, a lake, a swamp, wherever. It destroys the cleanliness of that water and makes it unlivable for fish, coral, and so they all die, and the ones who CAN live there overpopulate themselves. Not going green throws the natural balance of life out the window and makes up its own rules, without thinking about ALL causes and ALL effects. Natural means you're not disturbing things too much to live the way you want. Doing all this also prolongs the already shortened life span of our Earth, which is great for our future generations. You would be amazed to see how something, like even wearing clothing made of Polyester, is bad for the environment. Do you even know how they make Polyester? Let's just say it's not a very natural process since it involves a lot of fuel emissions and stuff. And I won't even begin to talk about Pesticides. They're SO terrible for the environment that it puts me on edge just thinking about it. If we just went green, we could eliminate these problems and focus on our world becoming a better place. We'd be helping the environment to feel as though it were the way it used to be, friendly and clean. This is a dream I have, to make it everyone's priority to make our Earth healed once again. I hope this is what you were looking for. Thanks for reading!

  3. One example to answer your question would be....

    If every household in the U.S. replaced just one bottle of 50 oz. ultra petroleum based liquid laundry detergent a Laundrypure, we could save 99,000 barrels of oil, enough to heat and cool 5,700 U.S. homes for a year!  

    Not to mention with this unit, we also save on our gas bill too by only using cold water.

  4. Generally, as has been mentioned, it is the accumulated effect of people making decisions based environmental issues that matters.  Also there is a "leading by example" element (not to be confused with self-righteousness).

  5. prevents flood. gives fresh air

  6. Do I have a wonder invitation for you to be your own boss and set-up your own company with products that are eco-friendly and organic safe and it's affordable for the poor the meduim the rich and the filthy rice, all can efford it  and easy to sell. Just visit my web site at www.shaklee.net/earthfriendly01  and see the beauty of these products it's all organic safe and great on the environment and there or millions of businesses using it to advertise that thier company have went totally green. Alot of business and home and cleaning business love the way it advertise. "GONE TOTALLY GREEN" no harash chemical are used in this product , that could harm you, your family and children and  your asthma, copd., and any kind of breathing problems that a person might have could be irritated by all the harsh chemicals that are being used in your house today and on the jobs where we work even by house maids or maid services.

    Nursing homes or one of the worst place to live because of all the chemicals that have to be use to maintain a clean and sanitary environment. But at the same time alot of our lod adult or being poison by the fumes that  the cleaning chemicals leave behind.

  7. Going green provides you with the smug, self-satisfaction of being better than other people.  You can wallow in sanctimonious piety looking down your nose at non-believers trying to live their petty lives.

    And that, my friend, helps the environment big time.
