Obama Calls Everyone to Go Green

The new administration has expressed its sincere desire and call for a green change. President Obama, in his speeches always emphasizes the need for an urgent move to go green.

We quote:

“It is critical that we understand this is not just a challenge; it’s an opportunity, because if we create a new energy economy, we can create five million new jobs, easily. It can be an engine that drives us into the future the same way the computer was the engine for economic growth over the last couple of decades. We can do it, but we’re going to have to make an investment. The same way the computer was originally invented by a bunch of government scientists who were trying to figure out, for defense purposes, how to communicate, we’ve got to understand that this is a national security issue, as well.”

The government has made a formal call. In this challenge, they will hold a different role and assume a bigger responsibility. The people, can join in the bandwagon by taking even the simplest steps such as using a natural cleaner to remove rust from carpet. More of simple steps to jump start your green lifestyle below.

1.Skip red meat. Did you know that skipping red meat at least once a week can help save the environment? Meat production can be very resource-intensive. Eating less of red meat and opting for pasture-fed beef one every seven days can save up to 840 gallons of fresh water.

2.Unsubscribe to junk mails. This way, you will be able to save water, trees and even emissions. If everybody in the United States reduced their junk mails every week, they will be saving 100 million trees every year.

3.Make it a habit to clean your dishwasher. Use a biodegradable dishwashing powder. These cleansers have been proving to be effective even in the absence of phosphates and bleach. Using natural rust removers to keep your dishwashers free from rust will also help save the environment.

These may be very simple and very small steps at first but are guaranteed to go a long way in helping the administration’s gigantic move to a greener and safer world.
