It’s so easy to save money and go green. Here’s 10 tips to prove it.
1. Having house plants not only look nice and add to your decor, they release oxygen and some of them actually clean the air of toxins. For example, Gerbera Daisies will absorb benzene (a known carcinogen found in plastics) and Golden Pothos will reduce formaldehyde, which emanates from new furniture and carpet. One thing to be aware of is that some plants (such as Aloe Vera and English Ivy) have defenses, and can be poisonous and so they should be used in places that small children and pets can’t access.

Due to this, many basic things that every business has always used are being given thought all over again. Even if a company is only interested in their bottom line, they may find that going green is far cheaper than ever. Let’s look at something that many companies rarely consider: disposable coffee cups.
The Latest Generation Of Energy Efficient Bulbs
December 24, 2009 by Siobhan Ostrowski · Leave a Comment
Regular light bulbs (also known as incandescent lamps) convert rather less than 20% of the energy they consume into actual light. This is because they quite literally burn a thin metal filament and as with all burning, most of the energy is dissipated as heat. To suggest they’re not therefore especially good at doing the one thing they’re supposed to do (i.e. turn electricity into light) is understating things somewhat.
