Education, an On-Going Process

What do you think of when you hear the word “Education”? Most people think of Grammar School, Junior High, High School, Technical School and/or Collage or even higher education. I feel that every person should make an effort to learn something new each and every day. If we learn something new each day the day was a success.

One thing that can help everyone in this ongoing learning process, regardless of age, is providing a safe toxin free environment in which to learn. It’s been shown that a good breakfast aids in the concentration and comprehension of students. With this in mind it makes sense that not just the foods we consume but all of the things we are exposed to on a daily basis will also have an effect on our ability to learn and retain the things we learn.

It’s also been shown that exposure to the harmful chemicals in the household products that most Americans use on a daily basis contributes to health problems, both physical and mental.

Consider these sobering facts:

Ø More than 7 million accidental poisonings occur each year, with more than 75% involving children under age 6!
—The Columbia University College of Physicians & Surgeons

Ø According to the U.S. Poison Control Centers, "A child is accidentally poisoned every 30 seconds at home..."

Ø The Average American Uses about 25 Gallons of toxic, hazardous chemical products per year in their home...A major portion of these can be found in household cleaning products.
—"Prosperity Without Pollution,"by Joel S. Hirschorn and Kirsten V. Oldenburg, 1991

Ø Women who work at home have a 54% higher death rate from cancer than those who work away from home. The 15-year study concluded it was as a direct result of the much higher exposure rate to toxic chemicals in common household products!
—Toronto Indoor Air Conference 1990

Ø The toxic chemicals in household cleaners are three times more likely to cause cancer than air pollution.
---Environmental Protection Agency report in 1985

Ø Cancer rates have increased since 1901 from only 1 in 8,000 Americans, to 1 in 3 today! By the year 2010, this disease will afflict 1 of every 2 individuals!
—American Cancer Society

Ø Of chemicals commonly found in homes, 150 have been linked to allergies, birth defects, cancer, and psychological abnormalities.
—Consumer Product Safety Commission

What can we do to increase our odds in this toxic world? We don’t have full control over every aspect of our lives. For example we cannot control the types of products used in public facilities, rest rooms, waiting rooms, offices etc. One thing we all have control over is the types of products we expose ourselves to in our own homes. What about the toxins we have already accumulated in our bodies?

The first thing to do is rid our homes and personal work spaces or study spaces of the dangerous products we’ve been accustomed to purchasing. The next step is to use an effective cleansing system or detoxification system; this will help to purge the harmful toxins from our bodies. One excellent “Cleanse” or “Detoxification System” is the BioCleanse System from BioGreen Systems Inc., but this will be a waste of time if we do not change the way we view the products we’ve been using. We need to detoxify and follow up with a change in habits, our buying habits.

This is where the learning something new each and every day comes into play. We need to learn to buy safer non-toxic products instead of just following the same old routine or what has become a habit. The human body and mind are amazing things and the ability to learn is limited only by our desire to learn. Use the opportunity and make the change in buying habits for yourself and your loved ones. Each and every one of us have the power and the ability to accomplish anything we set our mind too. Let’s educate ourselves in a “Greener Way of Life”. “You are the only person on earth who can use your ability.” Zig Ziglar

Cold and Flu season is just around the corner and there’s nothing we can do about it…OR MAYBE THERE IS!!!

For more than eight years now I’ve used, and I’m a firm believer in, a product called “Immune System Booster”. “Immune System Booster” is a targeted nutritional supplement from BioGreen Systems Inc.

In the early and mid 80’s I was making my living as a production welder. Welding is a dirty job and as a result I was having some respiratory problems, I would catch a cold and be unable to shake it and it would often turn into Bronchitis.

After using the “Immune System Booster” as directed I noticed I wasn’t getting sick nearly as often and when I did get sick I was able to recover faster. Over the years I’ve developed a daily routine of taking my “Immune System Booster” along with vitamin C and a multi-vitamin also from BioGreen Systems Inc.. I now seldom catch a cold, even when others around me and those I come into contact with have colds or the Flu and I strongly believe I owe this to the “Immune System Booster”.

The following is from the
BioGreen Systems Inc. website.
Your immune system is the most complex system in the human body; it is what guards you against illness from viruses, bacteria and disease. If it weren't for your immune system, every cold, flu or even a small cut on your finger could be fatal. It manufactures the antibodies needed to fight substances, which can cause disease and must be kept strong to do its job effectively. Age, poor diet, stress and external germs can weaken the immune system. Also, the nutrients found in foods for a healthy immune system are weaker due to environmental toxins in the air, water and chemically treated agricultural soils. IMMUNE SYSTEM BOOSTER combines proven effective Guaranteed Potency Herbs, herbal extracts and phytonutrients to stimulate the immune system and aid your body in fighting illnesses.

IMMUNE SYSTEM BOOSTER'S natural defense formulation combines herbs that boost immune system function, kills bacteria and helps your body adapt to the change of season.

I encourage everyone to give “Immune System Booster” a try. You’ll be glad you did.

"Going Green" Mind, Body and Soul

As we continue to educate ourselves on the importance of “Going Green” in our homes we become more keenly aware of the reasons we need to “Go Green”. By using “Green Products” we’ve learned that we not only help create a safer home environment for ourselves and our families, we also have the opportunity to protect the environment.

Did you ever think, though, that you also need to help your body “Go Green”? When you consider this thought it’s important to remember that it’s next to impossible for any of us to avoid the toxins and pollutants in the air, water, food and soil that we are exposed to on an everyday basis. They originate in the pesticides, industrial waste, chemicals in products we use in our homes, food additives, our treated water systems, among other things that constantly surround us.

Consider the following facts:

· Many drinking water systems in the United States contain over 700 chemicals, including dangerously high levels of lead

· Municipal water systems are the repositories of millions of tons of chemicals, waste products, fertilizers, herbicides, and pesticides, much of which finds its way into our food supply.

· Approximately 3,000 chemicals are intentionally added to our food, and close to 10,000 chemicals are used in the processing and storage of food items, in the form of solvents, emulsifiers and preservatives.

· Our bodies are unable to discard these toxic compounds fast enough to maintain anything near optimal levels of health. These toxins are stored in our tissues, and the levels keep increasing.

· It’s not surprising that in 1979 the Environmental Protection Agency declared that up to 20% of all deaths in the U.S. were caused by the harmful compounds found in the air we breath, the water we drink and the food we eat.

By using “green products” in our homes we can limit unnecessary exposure to toxins. From the facts noted above, on our website Going Green 2day and information available from Parent Awareness Center, we can gain knowledge of the effect toxins have, not only on our health, but also the environment. Since some things we are exposed to are beyond our personal control, we must be diligent in our use of “Green Products” and we, also, need to detoxify our bodies and in a sense, help our bodies “Go Green”.

It’s a fact, we cannot totally avoid the health hazards in today’s world, but we can protect ourselves and our family from many of their harmful effects. BioGreen Systems, Inc. offers a wonderful product called BioCleanse System, a formula consisting of a combination of vitamins, minerals and nutritive herbs, which safely and effectively support the body’s detoxification.
A very powerful attribute of our BioCleanse System is its ability to help your body eliminate harmful toxins. Through a safe and natural process, this is an exceptional and proven method of ridding the body of heavy metal toxins such as lead, cadmium, arsenic and mercury as well as other environmental toxins at a cellular level. Years of research and testing have been invested in this product formulation creating exciting results for our customers and Associates.

“Green Parenting”: Learning to make the “Green Choice”

As parents, we know how important it is to provide our children with the very best education possible and instill in them our family priorities and values. Providing a safe home environment for our children, so they have the opportunity to learn and reach their full potential, is also very important.

It’s necessary not only to provide our children with a safe learning environment in our homes, but also a safe living environment. Interesting thought, isn’t it? With the world’s focus on protecting the environment and “Going Green”, it’s only logical that we start in our own homes. By “Going Green” in our homes we not only make our homes safer for our families, we also have an impact in preserving the environment that surrounds us. One way we can do this is by carefully choosing the products we use on a daily basis and simply switch to using safe, non-toxic, “Green Products”. Recently, I became acquainted with a very informative website that I would like to bring to everyone’s attention,
http://www.parentawarenesscenter.com/. This website is dedicated to providing parents with information on how they can help keep their children safe by “Going Green”.


Here’s an excerpt from
Parent Awareness Center:

How to Go Green

Good parenting begins with educating yourself so that you can make the best decisions in raising and caring for your family. Parent Awareness Center is dedicated to providing free comprehensive information on "How and Why to Go Green", eco friendly choices, health, possible health hazardous that could effect the well being of your children, parenting articles, good parenting tips, and help for the working parent. As caring parents, we do everything possible to protect our families. We always buckle them securely into car seats, make sure they eat right, schedule regular visits to the pediatrician, and insist they wear helmets and protective gear at play. What most of us don't realize is that one of the biggest threats to our children is the arsenal of toxic chemicals that we have in our homes. Going Green just makes sense!

Here are some startling statistics:

  • EPA surveys find that indoor air is 3-5 times more chemically polluted than outdoor air.
  • After analyzing 2,983 chemicals used in personal care products, 884 were found to be toxic. (National Institute of Occupational Safety and Health)
  • According to the National Safety Council, more children under the age of four die of accidental poisonings at home than are accidentally killed with guns at home.
  • Asthma is the number one cause of absentees in the schools today.(Asthma Awareness Online)
  • Of chemicals commonly found in homes, 150 have been linked to allergies, birth defects, cancer, and psychological abnormalities. (Consumer Product Safety Commission)

At Parent Awareness Center you will find a wealth of information about how you can “Go Green” in your home and in the process make your home safer for your family. The information they provide shows how important it is to be aware of the potential harm the products we now may be using can have on our family’s health and the environment. Parent Awareness has the same purpose and goals as our Going Green 2Day Blog and our Going Green 2Day Website have, which is, to help everyone we can to make the “Green Choice” to use “Green Products” in their homes. By doing this we can help educate ourselves, our children, our friends and others about the importance of “Going Green” and impress upon them how easy it is to do so.

Choose to Make a “Green” Choice!--Choose "Green Minded" Businesses

I have a few friends that I would call mentors, two of whom are Mr. Leroy Cox, CEO and Advisor of BioGreen Systems Inc., along with Mr. Ron Torel, recently appointed, President of BioGreen Systems Inc. Many times I’ve heard them say, (I’m paraphrasing here); “Set your goals and then surround yourself with those who are positive, supportive and have the same interests and goals as you have”. Teamwork is essential to achieving goals of any kind.


The choice whether or not to “Go Green” in our lives is a decision each one of us has personal control over. One area we may not have considered involves the companies that we do business with or purchase products from. Of course we cannot control others, but we can choose who to do or not do business with. We can help to make a difference far beyond our own personal corner of the world by choosing to do business with companies and corporations that are truly making an effort to make a “Green Difference”. In other words, create a group or “Team” of “Green Minded” businesses to work with. The way we, as consumers, spend our money sends a powerful message to Corporate America. With the economy in the situation it’s now in, that message can be louder and stronger than ever!

I was recently introduced to a printing company that is making a “Green Difference”. Bacchus Press is a Certified Green Printer in the San Francisco Bay Area and is a member of “Bay Area Green Business Program” and is also FSC (Forest Stewardship Council) Certified. If your company or project requires printing I encourage you to take a look at their website.

As we state on our website “2Day is the First Day of a Greener Future”. Each and every day we can learn more about “Going Green”, more ways to “Go Green” and more ways to implement our knowledge or put into practice what we have learned. In what we do, what we purchase and from whom we purchase it, makes a statement and an impact. Choose to make a “Green Choice”.

Paper, Plastic?---Neither!!!

Recently, I was introduced to a wonderful website Bags On the Run. This website really brings awareness to, both the individual consumer and businesses alike, the impact we all have on the environment, just by our use of plastic bags. I knew the importance of recycling the plastic bags our store purchases are placed in each time we shop. But, this website was quite an eye-opener, showing how many of these plastic bags, that we all have used, are not being recycled and are ending up in the environment and the damage that they are causing.

Here’s some information from Bags On the Run
:

STATISTICS:

  • The EPA (Environmental Protection Agency) estimates that plastic bags take between 500-1000 years to break down in landfills.
  • Plastic bags result in killing huge numbers of birds, whales, seals, turtles and other animals every year.
  • According to a Wall Street Journal article “A Guide to Going Green”…”The EPA says solid waste, per person has nearly doubled to 4.4 pounds a day from 2.7 pounds in the past 35 years—filling up landfill sites and wasting materials that could be reused to save natural resources and energy.” Reusing items like our Bags on the Run reusable bags is an effective way to reduce your day-to-day use of materials such as plastic or paper bags which end up in landfills.

I urge you to visit: http://www.bagsontherun.com/ and check out their reusable, economical, “green” bags. This is just one more step any one of us can take to help protect and preserve our environment. Be sure to take a good look at the startling statistics at: www.bagsontherun.com/environment_articles.php.

Our Passion for Traveling

One of our families’ passions is to go to one of the state parks or national forests in our area with our fifth-wheel camper, sit among the trees and just listen to the sounds of nature. With the cost of fuel as high as it is we tend to stay a lot closer to home these days, none the less it’s still a nice break to be able to get out and commune with nature. While doing this it really reinforces upon our family the responsibility we have to do everything in our power to protect our environment.

Staying closer to home does have its benefits, it saves fuel which is a good thing and we have less travel time which means we have more time to sit in the woods and enjoy nature.

When we travel we look for and utilize the recycling bins that are now in most recreational areas. If we don’t find a recycling drop off point in the park we happen to be in, we carry our recyclables with us to the nearest park or rest area that has these facilities.

It bothers us to see the garbage cans full of glass bottles, aluminum cans, plastic jugs and paper that could be easily dropped into the proper recycling bins. Many times this is in an area where the recycling bins are provided. Some people, depending on where they may live, might not be accustomed to the recycling programs that most urban areas have adopted. Unfortunately we have observed some who are just too lazy to put forth the effort.

Another area we would encourage everyone, who like us enjoy RVing, to consider is the types of products and chemicals we use in and around our RVs. Many household products contain chemicals which, even in very small quantities, can be detrimental to wildlife and/or foliage. If you’ve read some of our other posts I’m sure you’ve noticed that we’ve mentioned our family uses products from
BioGreen Systems. BioGreen offers an extensive line of products that are Eco-Friendly and Non-Toxic. These products can be used safely around children and pets. We encourage everyone to use Eco-Friendly Non-Toxic products everywhere you may roam.

Camping in the woods also brings up the subject of bugs. Here in Minnesota that includes mosquitoes and ticks. One way to help combat these pesky insects is to use a product from
BioGreen Systems called BioSol. Mixed with water and sprayed on the skin, or on the fur of your pet, makes a good insect repellent. Sprayed on the screens and around the door openings helps keep the insects away.

For more Eco-Friendly ideas please take the time to visit our "Green" Alternatives
page at our website Going Green 2Day.

Is it a Case of “Greenwashing”... Revisited

This past June 16th I posted a short note called "Is it a Case of 'Greenwashing?" Last week my wife ran across this article she had saved from the Mankato Free Press. I thought it deserved posting.

Article from the Mankato Free Press
, August 5, 2007 by staff writer Tim Krohn.

"Green-Washed" companies in it for Green-Back$ ---- Not Saving Earth


The rugged, yet sensitive trucker in the television ad is driving his big rig along a drab, sepia-toned desert highway.
As the big, diesel 18­-wheeler heads down the road the sky behind the truck turns bright blue, the grass greens, butterflies and birds dart in the air. A pretty young woman walking through a field of now colorful wildflowers smiles coyly at the trucker.

I figured it must be an advertisement for air fresh­ener or maybe an organic lawn fertilizer. Turns out it's put out by some coalition of international ener­gy conglomerates. Their message isn't just that they're burning fossil fuels that spew out a bit less mercu­ry and carcinogens - they're appar­ently cleaning the landscape to its pristine state every time they fire up a coal plant or refine some more gasoline.

Big polluting corpora­tions trying to frame them­selves as environmentally friendly -"greenwashing" themselves - isn't anything new. It started around 1990 on the 20th anniversary of Earth Day as companies scrambled to cover their pitiful environmental records. Nothing like a slick ad campaign to detract from the Exxon Valdez oil slick.

Recently Ford touted its environ­mental commitment by focusing on its hybrid vehicles - even though those hybrids account for one-half of one percent of its fleet and Ford makes money mostly from its big fleet of F-150 trucks which had the worst-in-class fuel efficiency.

BP is even bolder. The gas com­pany's logo, a green and yellow sun­burst, resembles the sunflower logo of many green groups, and they have a slick ad campaign called "Beyond Petroleum." It's supposed to show their commitment to alter­native, renewable and low-polluting fuels. Never mind they're being sued for letting hundreds of thousands of gal­lons of crude oil spill onto the Alaskan tundra or that they face crit­icism around the world for human rights, pollution and safety viola­tions. BP sold solar panels that will save a half-million tons of carbon dioxide over their lifetime. Still, the compa­ny's fossil fuels emit some 1,300 mil­lion tons of carbon dioxide every year.

These days corporate America is refining the way it presents its green facade.

Wal-Mart is doing everything short of sending their "associates" to our homes to screw in the new ener­gy-saving compact fluorescent bulbs in its effort to help us be kind to the Earth.

Bank of America says it will spend $20 billion for sustainable projects.

IBM - known as Big Blue - has launched a Big Green campaign.

If this keeps up, I expect to see the CEO of Exxon holding hands with a Greenpeace volunteer singing "Kumbaya" on the banks of a sparkling clear river teeming with happy fish…Oh, wait, Greenpeace is already spoken for - by McDonald's! Not long ago that would seem far­fetched, but McDonald's has actually teamed up with Greenpeace to fight deforestation in South America.

I don't know about you, but I don't feel better knowing short-sighted, money-driven multinational cor­porations say they're going to take care of our environmental problems.
I still like real environmentalists. They're often unrealistic wing-nuts, but they live what they passionately believe in. Forget Ronald McDonald peddling recyclable Whopper cartons. Give me a guy in non-leather shoes and a banana-leaf shirt chaining himself to an old growth fir tree to stop the bulldozers.

There's some things we can't trust to the Fortune 500. The environ­ment's one of them.

Going Green + Network Marketing = A perfect combination to create a lucrative home based business.

With the focus of the majority of consumers on a “Greener” way of life, the opportunity exists to create a profitable home based business while improving the environment in our homes and our neighborhoods.
Many people are afraid to even mention “Network Marketing” or “Multi-Level Marketing” (MLM’s). The truth of the matter is that “Network Marketing” is a good opportunity to expand ones horizons. Consider this; “Man's mind, once stretched to a new idea, never goes back to its original dimensions” Oliver Wendell Holmes.
When the economy takes a downward turn as it is at present, network marketing is one area of the economy that continues to grow. Combine that with a network marketing company that produces high quality “Green” “Environmentally Friendly” “Non-Toxic” consumable products (products that are used on a daily basis) i.e. soap, shampoo, dish washing liquid, laundry liquid, glass cleaner and the list goes on, you have a perfect opportunity to start your own home based business.
A good network marketing company with a good business plan can give a person business training, experience working with people, more self-confidence and also teaches the fundamentals of and demonstrates the building and maintaining of a network.
BioGreen Systems Inc. is one such company. Based in Littleton CO. BioGreen Systems manufactures an extensive line of high quality “Green” products and is a network marketing company that has an easy to follow, straight forward Business Plan.
We encourage you to join us and our team at BioGreen Systems Inc. You’ll be glad you did.

Consider the following article from Entrepreneur online;

Is Network Marketing Just a Scam?
There's a huge difference between network marketing and pyramid schemes. Learn the truth here.

“Going Green” Saves You Green!

As we continue on our journey of learning how to “go green” we find that there are so many easy ways that we are able to do this. By simply changing some of our everyday habits we not only see that we can have a part in preserving the environment, but by “going green” we can, actually, save some “green”.

At times I have heard some say that “going green” is expensive. My question is “How much is your health, the health of your family and the health of the environment worth?” Priceless! Think about it… Reduce, Reuse, Recycle, is what we are encouraged to do. Doing these things is easy, costs absolutely nothing and all it takes from us is a little bit of effort on our part.

Another way of “going green” and saving “green”, is by changing our buying habits. When we choose to purchase “green products” for our everyday needs we can learn how easy and economical this can be. Since most “green products” are highly concentrated and multi-purposed, they last longer and cover more uses than their toxic counterparts that you may now be using and, as a result, will save you money. BioGreen Systems offers a complete line of “green” cleaning and laundry products that will definitely save you money while at the same time keeping your home and the environment safe. Here are just a few examples of the many uses of BioGreen Systems “Green” products:

BioGreen Laundry Liquid: Costs only 18 cents to 36 cents per wash load! (Per wash load use just 1 oz. for hard water or ½ oz. for soft water.)

Use a couple of drops of the Laundry Liquid in a bucket of water, add a capful of Fabric Conditioner for a mopping solution that results in a streak free floor. You can also wash your car with this same solution.

BioGreen Fabric Conditioner: Costs about 15 cents per wash load!

Mixed 10:1 with water in a spray bottle, makes an incredible ironing spray, making fabrics easy to iron, with a light starch-like finish.

Mixed 5:1 with water, it makes a great furniture polish, by giving a high shine and decreasing dust attraction. You can use it on your floor dusters and dust mops, also.

BioGreen’s POW: One 2lb. container makes 60 gallons of cleaning solution at just 25 cents per gallon!

POW is an incredible, high energy, oxygen based cleaner. It cleans, removes stains and deodorizes virtually every washable surface. Use it as a tile cleaner, spot remover, laundry bleach alternative, mold and mildew cleaner, in your dishwasher and the list goes on.

To learn more uses for all of BioGreen’s fantastic, economical “green products” check out the "Green" Alternatives page at our website: Going Green 2Day.

"Going Green"- Is it Just a Fad?

I have to shake my head when I hear some say, either to my face, on the Internet or in the Media that “going green” is just a fad. I don’t think they actually know what a fad is. The definition of a fad is… “Something that is very popular with a small group of people for a short period of time.”

Maybe, in the case of some of the big businesses, it is just a fad and nothing more than a marketing opportunity for them. It may be a fad for some individuals, whose only purpose for “going green” is just because everyone else is doing it. When you really look around, though, you can see there are many companies and individuals who have made “going green” an essential part of their businesses and their lives, for many years. And others, who may have just recently started “going green”, are sincerely doing everything they possibly can to fulfill their commitment to preserve the environment. So, to say “going green” is just a fad is certainly incorrect.

BioGreen Systems is one such company whose values and concerns, from their very beginning, has been to manufacture & provide high quality, non-toxic, green products. The products, from BioGreen, not only make the environment in your home safer, but through the use of them you have the opportunity to have a share in protecting the environment.

I am inclined to believe “Going Green” is a trend more so than a fad and I feel it needs to be turned into a way of life.

Is It a Case of “Greenwashing”?

With the focus of the media along with the general public on the “Green Movement” everyone is trying to get their “Piece of the Pie”. This “Green Movement” has not gone unnoticed by big business. It’s commendable to try and do our part, be it one person or a large corporation. There are companies that have been “Green” from their inception and there are also companies that are moving in that direction.
Unfortunately, we as consumers must be on the watch for “Greenwashing” by some businesses. Of course not all companies are guilty of this, but it makes a person wonder when you go into a store and see the flood of new “Green” products and right next to them is the entire line of dangerous toxic products, offered by the same companies. Are these companies genuinely trying to move toward being “Green” or are they just trying to capitalize on a situation with only monetary goals in mind, i.e. “Hey, we can make a bundle of money here if we claim to be Green”.
We as a family choose to use products from
BioGreen Systems, a company that’s been “Green” from its very beginning. Whether a person decides to use BioGreen products or products from any number of other truly “Green” companies it’s important to make the move and by doing so sending a message to the companies that are guilty of “Greenwashing”.

Choose to Make a “Green” Choice!

As we all make steps towards becoming more “green”, in whatever way we choose, it’s important to keep in mind an important thought. “In any moment of decision the best thing you can do is the right thing, the next best thing is the wrong thing, and the worst thing you can do is nothing.” Theodore Roosevelt.

Think about that as you make your decisions on how you want to “go green.” Everyone will choose their own way that they want to help in preserving the environment, and no one way is the right way or wrong way, but just a different way. The most important thing we must remember is that the worst thing we can do is nothing. Since there are so many easy ways for any of us to “go green” there is no reason to not make an effort to do so.

Probably one of the simplest ways to “go green”, is to just switch your buying habits on the things that you are now already purchasing on a regular basis, at your local stores. Everyone, no matter who they are or where they live, washes their clothes, cleans their homes, takes a shower, washes their hair, and the list goes on. By starting here, in our homes, we not only help make them safer, we also have a positive impact on the environment.

No need to be concerned that “green products” are going to cost more than the products you’re now using. “Green products” are generally highly concentrated and many are mixed with water before using. (Example: BioGreen’s EcoPure, mixed 20 to 1 with water, costs just 50 cents per quart!) Since “green products” are so concentrated, they require less packaging and less fuel to ship, and as a result have less of an impact on the environment.

“Green Products” also have multiple uses, so they can tackle more cleaning tasks than traditional, non-green cleaners. So, the more jobs a cleaner can do, the fewer products you need to buy, again another way to save you money and cut waste. Check out the multiple uses for
BioGreen's products at our website: Going Green 2Day.

“Going Green”…The Right Thing to Do

It seems everywhere we turn, in the media, the entertainment world and big business, we are hearing about the importance of “Going Green”. Most of us are fully aware of the importance of recycling and conserving energy as a valuable way we can help preserve the environment. We may not realize, though, that there are other, very simple ways we can have a share in protecting and preserving the environment.

Think about it…each and everyday we ALL have the opportunity to not only protect our family’s health, by the choices we make, but by making the right choices we are able to protect our environment. Remember, each and every one of us is a part of the environment, so whatever we do to the environment, we do to ourselves.

We may ask ourselves, “What can we do that will actually make a difference?” As one person or one family, we may not be able to change the world, but we can have a share in protecting and preserving our little part of the world, our homes. With the world’s focus on protecting the environment and “going green”, it’s only logical that we start in our own homes. By “going green” in our homes we not only cause our homes to be safer for our families, we also have an impact on preserving the environment that surrounds us. One way that we can do this is by carefully choosing the products we use on an everyday basis and simply switching to using safe, non-toxic, “green products”.

Because of my desire to provide a safe home for my family and protect the environment, I was very excited when I was introduced to the BioGreen Systems product line. I am proud to be a part of a company whose mission is to provide meaningful solutions to the health problems created in today's toxic environment and sharing in the preservation of the environment. BioGreen manufactures and distributes a complete line of reasonably priced, highly effective, non- toxic, “green products”. The products that are available from BioGreen Systems will replace every toxic product you now have in your home, from cleaning, to laundry and personal care products.

This blog is dedicated to providing information on how, by just making simple changes in our buying habits, we can take one step towards having a share in protecting the environment. It will also be providing information on how, if you choose, you can start earning extra money from home without spending any extra money, just by the use of these products and sharing them with others.
