Want to join the green movement, but aren’t sure how? Intimidated that you might need to turn your routine upside down to be more eco-friendly? Green living expert and mother of three, Beth Aldrich, encourages families to try little things to make a difference everyday and to look for products that work for them and the environment.
That’s why Beth’s teamed-up with Airwear® to invite other environmentally-conscious consumers to share their visions of a greener world. Airwear eyeglass lenses from Essilor are now made using environmentally conscious practices such as 100 percent recycled water, 100 percent recyclable packaging, and the company re-purposes unused materials in other industries. With these new, green practices Airwear is conserving millions of gallons of water and eliminating 570,000 pounds of plastic waste every year!
Going green can be as simple as buying eco-friendly products or shopping locally for produce – every little thing adds-up to make a sustainable impact on the environment as a whole. As Beth says, “How you treat yourself, your family and your home all add up to how we collectively take care of our planet.
CONTEST DETAILS:
Beth, Airwear and TwitterMoms want to know what you’re doing to green your routine!
HOW IT WORKS:

Your blog post should include at least one link to LighterSaferGreener.com. Then, return to this discussion page and leave a comment with your blog link. That's it! We also encourage you to embed a “Lighter.Safer.Greener.” contest button on your blog (you get the button from LighterSaferGreener.com site) to encourage readers to share what their families are doing to make the world a greener place – they could win Airwear eyewear for the entire family. Feel free to upload photos or videos to show your “greening” in action. Beth and her son prove that recycling can be a fun, teachable moment! Contest officially ends on midnight EST on November 24. All participating bloggers will be contacted the week of December 7.

We are definitely a green family....from recently tearing out all our lawn to make room for organic garden beds, to recycling, to biking vs driving when possible and trying to buy things more in bulk with less packaging.
