Green, Eco-Friendly, Organic, Sustainable Living Made Easy

Having grown up in Germany, I’m all about being green, reusing, and recycling. I often can’t believe the waste that’s being generated here in the U.S. — it makes my stomach turn.

I still remember seeing the mountain of trash that was generated after only one lunch period in a high school in Woburn, MA, I was visiting as a teenager during a school exchange. Since then I have been on a quest to educate people about the things they can do without much effort to help our environment. It’s so easy — go green!

Being green is “in” right now — I hope that isn’t just a phase. Small changes don’t have to cost a lot.
