What is green living?

Green living is about finding a lifestyle which causes no permanent damage to the planet. It's about finding sustainable answers to our needs and desires. And it's about living in harmony and balance with other living inhabitants of our world.

Please enjoy this website and I hope it will provide a few answers to your personal journey towards greener living. So come on in and green up your lifestyle with greenfootsteps.com!

Most of us would like to be greener - at least if it didn't hurt too much! Being “green” or eco-friendly in our lifestyle choices does not always look easy. Some green living solutions can be expensive and have a long pay-back time – for example, double glazing makes your home easier to heat but on average it takes about five years for you to recoup the cost.

Also, there’s a confusing wealth of information out there.

Information, Information, Information!

Every day becoming greener looks more and more complicated. And, as the news rolls in about climate change, more and more necessary.

Greenfootsteps is dedicated to making the task easier by finding the best tips and techniques which don't cost the earth. Every thing written about here should help make life cheaper, easier or healthier for you and your family. And, if it also makes life more enjoyable, that’s great!

An International Approach

See here for a real home business opportunity

Greenfootsteps also aims to be international in scope as far as possible. I'm from England, so many of the tips on organic gardening are most suitable for people growing food plants in temperate climates: that said, most of the other green living ideas should be applicable practically anywhere!

A brief note on spelling: - I've used mainly UK English spellings but there are also some US variants as more people are familiar with US English.

Please Note:

The ideas presented on this site are intended to help individuals and families to live a greener lifestyle. Many of the issues dealt with here have enormous political implications. This site does not address these political issues at all. It is simply intended for your personal information, to help you to find greener ways of living as things are at the moment.
