Use Non-Toxic Cleaners – Every year we toss tons of bottles into landfills and pollute our indoor air quality but putting unnecessary toxins in our air, which can extremely effect our and our families health. Make the change and purchase a Get Clean Kit, this kit is everything you need for a cleaner healthier home, plus because everything is super concentrated you will be saving tons of bottles from entering the landfills.

  1. Start Composting – Composting is a simple way to not only avoid scraps from entering our landfills but it does wonder for your plants. Did you know composting can lessen the amount of garbage you put at for pickup and even decrease your garbage pickup bill.
  2. Drink CLEAN Water – Every year we throw tons of plastic water bottles into landfills, start using filtered water and refillable water bottles like SIGG and Klean Kanteen and ditch the plastic bottles. Check out the Best Water Pitcher, this pitcher is fridge door friendly and filters ordinary tap water.
  3. Buy Local Produce– Support your local economy and start shopping at the local farms. There is nothing better than some farm fresh food and in most instances it will be cheaper than the supermarkets. For local farms near you go to www.localharvest.org
  4. Recycle your Indoor Air – Simply open your windows for 5 mins and let some fresh air in. Also check out the AirSource 3000 air purifier that dramatically reduces all three of the major forms of indoor air pollution, including particles such as pollen, pet dander, dust and cigarette smoke; microbes such as mold and bacteria; gases and odors. It purifies the air up to 3000 sq. ft. making it ideal for most homes.
