There are only two ways to live your life.


One is as though nothing is a miracle.


The other is as though everything is a miracle.


— Albert Einstein, physicist


Here are a few ways to be more environmentally helpful.
Shop for organic products.
Use reusable shopping bags.
Clean with cleaners that aren't harmful such as baking soda and vinegar.
Freshen the air with essential oils and potted plants.
Of course an energy efficient car helps with costs saving too.

Of course there is also recycling but I don’t mean the put it out on the curb for pick up kind. This is the re-use of items. A friend of mine is an eBay recycler. She truly enjoys finding ‘treasure’ and then listing it with eBay. Some things she has to fix but others are just ready for someone else to ‘treasure’. And besides she earns money for her family too!
