This is not a sponsored post.  I use this stuff and like it.


Clean How To articles for green cleaning usually revolve around using vinegar.  Vinegar is a great green cleaner.  AngelFire.com boasts 131 Uses for Vinegar in their Clean How To post.  Some areas they suggest using vinegar include:

11 Places to Consider Using Vinegar as a Green Cleaner

  1. Animals

  4. Bugs
  5. Cars
  6. Clothing
  7. Garden
  8. Health

You can read the entire article here for their detailed Clean How To tips.  Vinegar is without a doubt a great green cleaning staple.  But, what if you don’t like the smell that goes along with vinegar cleaning?
The good people at GoldCanyon.com have you covered:

    “Homeology™ is aromatherapy for the home. Our plant-based, environmentally friendly cleaning products contain fragrant essential oils for a pure and natural scent that soothes you while wiping out dirt and germs. Our Homeology line of products includes all-natural cleaning supplies that are effective, biodegradable and safe to breathe.”

At my house we regularly use the All Purpose Rosemary Mint and the Floor Lavender Eucalyptus Sweet Orange.  I assure you that both of these cleaners smell better that vinegar.

7 Reason to try Homeology as a Vinegar Alternative:

    1. Active ingredients from active sources.
    2. Biodegradable.
    3. Non-toxic.
    4. No ammonia or phosphates.
    5. No chlorine
    6. Not tested on animals
    7. No artificial dyes.

    Magazines | Sports Online Subscriptions Make Good Green Sense

    Posted by W2G

    Magazines.com, Inc.

    Magazines | Sports Online Subscriptions Make Good Green Sense

    online subscriptions

    Magazines online just makes green sense.  Online subscriptions are gaining popularity, and for good reason.  Consider the benefits of online subscriptions.  Here are 6:

    Magazines | 6 Reasons that online subscriptions make good green sense

    1. Magazines take paper and a large amount of energy to produce.  Online subscriptions remove this step and bring you your favorite topics in a digital format.
    2. You can access your magazines, via your online subscriptions, at your convenience.  No more piles of unread magazines!
    3. You can read your favorite magazines anywhere.  Your online subscriptions are available to you wherever you can access the Internet.
    4. Online subscriptions do not need to be delivered via your local postal service.  This reduces emissions and conserves natural resources.
    5. Online subscriptions allow you to subscribe to green magazines related to: sports, solar, green living, green building, and more.
    6. Online subscriptions make great green gifts.  If you know someone that loves their magazines (sports fans), you can help them go green with a digital subscription.

    Magazines | Why sports online subscriptions?

    I, like many other Greens, advocate motor-less sports.  What a better way to encourage someone (ourselves maybe?) to live greener, than an online subscription to a magazine that emphasizes motor-less sports.
