Green Solutions for St. Patrick's Day
1. Use cast iron pans instead of non-stick.
2. To avoid chemicals leaching into food, go easy on processed, canned or fast foods and never microwave plastic.
3. Buy organic, or eat vegetables and fruit from the "Clean 15" list.
4. Pregnant women should use iodized salt to combat chemical interference from the thyroid.
5. Seal outdoor wooden structures. Order a test kit to find out if your wooden deck, picnic table, or play-set is leaching arsenic.
6. Leave your shoes at the door. This cuts down on dust-bound pollutants in the home
7. Avoid perfume, cologne and products with added fragrance. Search for personal care products that are fragrance-free, or check the products you're already using.
8. Buy products with natural fibers, like cotton and wool, that are naturally fire resistant.
9. Eat low-mercury fish like tilapia and pollock, rather than high-mercury choices like tuna and swordfish.
10. Filter your water for drinking and cooking.
11. Learn your personal body burden. Take a step-by-step tour of your home to learn the toxic truth about how household products contribute to your body burden of industrial chemicals.
We can all work a little bit every day to do our part in keeping God's Earth green!!
