Who said going GREEN is hard?


    Who ever said that going GREEN is hard? Whoever said that must have not looked at the small, inexpensive things out there that are all going GREEN! What small, inexpensive things you ask?  Well how about an energy efficient light bulb for example.
    Buying energy efficient light bulbs, like compact fluorescent light bulbs, not only help the environment, but is saves you money! Yes, I said buying something SAVES you money! A compact fluorescent light bulb of 26-watt gives off just as much light as a 100-watt "regular" light bulb and doesn't draw in all the heat a regular light bulb does. Speaking from experience; my husband and I use compact fluorescent light bulbs and they not only give off less heat, but that last forever.  We have had the same fluorescent light bulb in our room lamp (that we use every day) for about 3 years, and it's still going strong!
    So, how does this save you money? You save roughly 75% of energy per bulb, which saves money on the electric bill. This is just one way that a small change can help change our environment down fall and create a better future for our youth.
    As Renee Loux so perfectly say's "Being green isn't a privilege or a luxury, it's a responsibility we all need to accept, because a healthy, safe environment is the backbone of everything we rely on to live, thrive and survive!"
