Keep It Green Ideas, Part 2
How about green gift giving? Yes, for any time of year and any occasion, think green. Instead of buying something that has to be made think about giving experiences. Examples would be tickets to a play, concert, or movie and even gift certificates to a spa. Think about a gift card for phone minutes. Loved ones can call you even if they don't have the latest in electronic phones.
Some simple green ideas for shopping are to give consumable gifts like fair trade organic coffee or tins of nuts. Another concept catching on is to not wrap gifts at all or put them in reusable gift bags with tissue paper so the wrapping is reusable as I suggested in part 1. Remember, Aristotle once said "We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act, but a habit." This works for using simple green ideas as well.
We hear a lot about using solar energy but most of the discussions are about solar panels on our rooftops. Many people cannot afford this and doing it yourself may not be an option. However, we can all participate in this by using solar lighting. You can get a solar garden light to brighten up small or large areas of your yard, garden, entryway, and patio. Some examples of solar garden light are a garden gnome with lantern, hummingbird chimes, solar butterfly light, or various dogs with a lantern in their mouths. A solar garden light uses sunlight and not electricity so it is cost effective and decorative all at once. If you need to light larger areas of the yard, garden, etc. there are various types of solar lights available.
If you are looking for other simple green ideas, go to hubpages.com and look for green living issues. You can also just do an Internet search for simple green ideas.
