I consider myself green. I can be more green, but I am doing my part. I drive a hybrid vehicle. I use reusable bags at the grocery store, department stores and anywhere I can remember to bring the bag into. I try to buy things with less packaging so there’s less waste. I use 7th Generation laundry detergent and fabric softener. With the baby we plan to use 7th generation diapers, buy as little non-environmentally friendly plastics as possible.
For the business, we have cut back on a lot of the waste. There are no longer paper proofs, proof books (except weddings if requested) and unnecessary handouts. HOW are we changing out packaging? Currently we use really cute orange and blue tissue paper, pretty ribbons and gift boxes to wrap your art in. Guess what’s coming soon?
REUASBLE CANVAS BAGS! We are so excited about this. Simply bring home your prints in the bag (they’ll be protected) then for your next session, bring me your bag and I will reuse it for your next print order 🙂 HOW cool is this? Look for it in the next few months!
Don’t think it’s necessary? Check these facts out:
Borrowed from http://reusablebags.wordpress.com
1) A Plastic bag takes 450 years to biodegrade.
2) The production of Paper bags causes 70% more pollution than Plastic.
3) When Plastic “photo degrades” it ends up in our oceans. Incidentally, it appears much like a plankton, and is then consumed by fish. Fish eat it, and it winds up on your dinner table.
4) The recipe for making paper bags starts with 1 part pulp, 400 parts WATER.
5) The recycling of plastic emits heavy metals into the air causing extreme air pollution.
6) An average person will use over 350 bags in a single year!
7) In New York City, one less grocery bag per person would reduce waste by 5 million pounds and save $250,000 in disposal costs. 
In 1999 more than 14 million trees were cut down to produce 10 billion paper bags that were used by Americans that year.
9) Reusable bags save 700+ bags over the span of their lifetime!
10) if we spread the word about the importance of reusing our grocery bags, work together, and somehow this movement catches on, the end up benefit to the Earth is going to be huge! We are talking millions of gallons of fresh water saved, millions of gallons of fuel saved, and hundreds of thousands of acres of forest land saved every year!
