What is Green

The term Green has no regulation and so many companies are out there claiming to be Green but are they truly Green? What does Green really mean?

Well for a product to be Green to me it has to follow a certain set of standards.

1. 100% safe and Non-Toxic
2. Evironmentally Responsible Packaging - super concentrated, so less bottles enter the landfill, reusable and recyclable, biodegradable or compostable
3. Company making a Positive Environmental Impact - ask yourself what is Company X doing to better our environment and health
4. Keeping Green in my Wallet – being Green is about being resourceful and not all about buying Green. Can a single product be used for multiple uses. Green should never cost more in the long run, granted typically true Green products are more expensive upfront due to quality ingredients, fair trade..ect but they should last longer than their “non green” counterparts and thus saving us money.
5. Not Tested on Animals - being Green is about being Earth Friendly, we cant be Earth Friendly and harming animals
