"When you've finished washing and dressing each morning,
you must tend your planet."
(said by the little prince in Antoine de Saint-Exupery's "The Little Prince")
(although this is one of our mom's favorite books, we discovered this quote in Green Chic)
Here are just some of the ways...
** FOOD **
...eat organic, shop at farmer's markets, grown your own food, go to a certified sustainable/green restaurant (check out dinegreen.com for a list in your area). Bon Apetit!
** DRINK **
...enjoy organic wines (made from organic grapes at Eco-friendly wineries). The author suggests a couple including Brick House Vineyard in OR and Quivira Vineyard in CA). You can also enjoy beer (the husband -Syd's- and the bf -Megan's- certainly enjoy a nice, cold beer)! The author suggests Peak Organic. Cheers!
** CLEANSE **
...beauty products (makeup and skin care) are also included in this book. Find companies that will recylcle their containers...LUSH will give you a free facial mask if you bring in five empty containers to recycle. The author notes that MAC has a similar incentive and will give you a free lipstick when you return six containers. The author also suggests Juice Beauty and Jason Natural for products (they even have toothpaste and mouthwash!).
