Thegreenghost.com - tips on caring for our environment and making our lives better

By: thegreenghost

The Green Ghost is a blog written to inform readers about small ways and simple ideas that can make a huge difference to our lives and help us all and the planet make it through the next one hundred years.

It is about thinking a little longer before using plastic bags, when a paper or cloth bag is more than good to carry your stuff and cause less damage to the environment. It is about how we can cut down the use of chemicals in our homes and pave way for natural products in our daily household work. Using organic cotton as opposed to ordinary cotton, which is responsible for one third of the world's use of harmful chemicals, or simply switching to organic tea or coffee, which will help reduce the amount of pesticides consumed, are simple ways to start living the 'natural' life. Another easy way can be followed right in your garden or backyard where you can save your peelings, used tea bags, eggshells and coffee grounds for your compost bin. Using natural pest control methods like cucumber slices or garlic to keep away ants or using baking soda in place of brand chemical products for washing bed linen to keep bed bugs away.


There will be useful information and help with going on green holidays rather than a normal holiday (picture yourself lying on the beach or admiring landscapes; seems passé isn't it?) which are safe, sustainable and environment friendly and help cut down on the impact of tourism on local environment and people. Readers will also be apprised about small ways by which they can indulge in recycling waste as much as possible, in day-to-day life.


In addition, links to other useful sites that cover some other tips and methods like green building, green burials, green funerals, etc. at a greater depth.
