    Most of my information has been gained through following blogs. There are a lot of "green" bloggers out there and it is very interesting to see what they do to help our environment.

    I generally find out information while watching tv programs and commercials. Sometime I receive information via email, but lately I've noticed quite a few tv ads.

    Most environmental products I see are on T.V. Some are commercials and some are from the media/news.

    I also find it really easy to use very basic products like: vinegar, hydrogen peroxide, alcohol, coarse salt, baking powder, bleach. It's very easy to clean if you have these around. I tend to use them more now to save on money.

    With all the positive press and air-time given to eco-friendly products, one can't help but be exposed to information regarding new products via any form of media. I think it is important for everyone to do as little or as much as they feel comfortable doing to support the "green" movement--for our future, but mainly for our children's futures.
