Easy Ideas

  • Buy products made or farmed locally.
  • Wash your hair every other day- every day can strip it of natural oils that it needs, and puts more chemicals into the water.
  • Use non-toxic cleaning products - toxic products can hurt the environment and your health.
  • Wear animal-friendly clothes- don't wear leather and other animal products - the treatment process uses harmful chemicals.
  • Cook vegetarian meals for your friends and family
  • Try going vegetarian at least once a week. Eating 20% less meat makes the same impact as switching to a hybrid car!
