Is living green healthier


I am living more and more all the time a more green lifestyle. Slowly transforming my living environment at home to almost totally green. Ive made substantial transformation to green at home and in my lifestyle. I may be older, but I am feeling better.

I made the same commitment in January, and I can't help but think it's healthier. For example,my ex used to use Tilex after every shower and I would cough and cough. Now I use a "green" brand and actually like the smell and don't cough at all.

But it's healthier for the planet in the long run. Kudos to you!

I'm going to say yes too.

I buy eco friendly/green products now for cleaning, and prefer them better then the other ones.

I have tote bags for the grocery store so that I dont waste plastic bags.

I also try and buy a lot more organic foods lately, and let me tell you, I do feel better.

Kudos to you for going green!

Question Re: Is living green healthier
Hello, I am a nursing student and I am trying to find information on laws and going green. Has anyone here know of any hospitals/nursing homes etc that their states have created laws for them to become green healthcare?
