Hello everyone, and welcome to the first official
GOING GREEN
Those two words say so much , that I will never even come close to covering the entire topic. We hear it everywhere nowadays. All the talk about pollution, ozone depletion and global warming are overwhelming for some people, who still think those issues are far from them, and non dependant on individual efforts. The truth is that if an effort is not made by every individual to protect the environment, in the years to come mother earth will no longer be as we know her. I as a mother would like to do my best to preserve some fresh air for my children, grandchildren (eventually) and the generations to come. This is why I chose "Going Green" for my first theme.
I have been looking for an individual product or company to feature today, and the more I searched the harder it got to pick just one. It's such a broad theme ...
So today I will be taking you on a tour of my finds- some great products, and resources to help educate ourselves and others and become aware of our actions and their effect on the environment.Enjoy and don't forget to let me know what you think.
First let's take the Green-o-meter to see where we stand.

WOW! What a wonderful surprise to have my candles included on your blog and in the "Going Green" feature. I started making these candles about 10 years ago because I wanted to get away from petroleum products as much as possible and petroleum is what paraffin is made from. Thanks again. Lovely Blog.
