Easy Ways To Go Green

How To Make Your Home and Lifestyle More Earth Friendly.

We recently stumbled upon an amazing speech by Elizabeth Kapu’uwailani Lindsey called “Navigating An Ancient Future” in which she shares many profound insights. One in particular is from her mentor, master navigator Pius “Mau” Piailug from Micronesia.  We were so moved we felt the need to share it here with this article on adapting sustainable practices into our daily lives.  We hope this quote inspires your life and business as it has our own…

“The island is the canoe, the canoe is the island” meaning – “aboard the vessel resources are finite.  The way one crew member uses those resources affects everyone.  The planet is our canoe and how a society, a community, an individual uses the resources affects all of us. “

There are lots of small lifestyle changes you can adapt that will not only help sustain the environment you live in but they can also save you money. How to start?  We hope you will try some of the easy ways to go green suggested here as we offer user-friendly proposals that you can try at home and work.
