Can You Make An Old House Turn “Green”?

With everyone going green and builders being cognizant of the desire for green homes, why not talk about more green products or activities? There are green vehicles, “windtricity” , organic foods, recycle centers, organic bedding, green plumbing products (toilets/ showerheads, sink faucets that conserve water), and many other amazing “green” earth saving ideas.

So your home isn’t “green” built, that’s okay, you can still have a Green environment by using Green cleaning supplies. There are many vendors, and online companies that one can buy household cleaning products that are Green. These cleaning ideas are in such demand that one can even find these cleaning supplies in their local grocery store.

Call your trash company to see if they offer recycling bins with service to pick up on trash days. Look into a do it yourself compost. There are also composting machines available for sale if you’re not into the extra work of a “build it yourself compost.” Look into government incentives that allow for tax credits, and even your local utility companies; many offer rebates for buying water saving toilets, showerheads, sink faucets, and washer machines.

Being Green doesn’t mean you have to tear down an existing home and build a new one, but there are ways one can become Greener. After all, every little bit helps!
