I just got back from the store, and I still find myself changing over to greener buying habits, even when it takes more money (at times) to do so. It can take a hit on the grocery/toiletry bill and even make you feel like it’s a major pain.
Today, I introduced a greener toilet bowl cleaner and a Pangea Brand organic skincare product to my bathroom cabinet. The toilet bowl cleaner was priced just fine — the same as others — but the Pangea set me back a few.
But, there’s silver lining in picking up that greener laundry detergent, dish soap, or toilet bowl cleaner. And if you slowly replace your fleet of cleaners, toiletries, and paper goods, you will find it much easier to do so. I have slowly shopped myself into a greener life, one shopping trip at a time. As items need to be replaced, I purchase the greener toilet paper, paper towels, and waxed paper.
If you try to do it all at once, you’re likely going to drop a lot of money on the products, something many of us may not want to do all at once. Be prepared, if you so choose.
The better way is to gradually introduce greener options as needed. So next time you run out of something, consider purchasing the greener option!
