The eco-friendly lifestyle sometimes gets a bad rap as being reserved only for the privileged. Here’s why:
–  While organic food + hybrid cars are certainly green, they have hefty price tags + therefore aren’t accessible to everyone.
– Some eco-friendly products will save money in the long run, but their significant up-front costs deter consumers from ever purchasing. (A $30 box of disposable diapers is much easier to swallow in the short-term than a $250 set of cloth ones!)
– Finally, there’s a growing market for sustainable goods (Think: silicone bags, beeswax wraps, microfiber-catching washing bags, dryer balls + many more). As a result, it can sometimes feel as though living green requires spending money.
But sustainable living isn’t just for the privileged; it’s for you + me, too. This week, I’m thrilled to offer 25 unconventional ways to be eco-friendly that don’t cost a single cent.
Even better? Adopting just *some* of today’s ideas will save significant money in the long run.
Enjoy!
