This addition of going green Monday is about a website called The Green Guide. This is a wonderful site I ran across while doing some research for next weeks going green Monday. They have many features, tips and products that will help you to live green and be healthy in the process.

They have a newsletter you can sign up for as well as daily tips for living green. There is a huge list of articles that can help you to live a green life. Today I read a great article about olive oil and what it does for you. I use olive oil a lot as it is healthier for you then butter and I think it taste a lot better too.

There is also another great article on green flooring. I talk alot about bamboo flooring on my Interior design blog. Bamboo is a great way to help the environment as it grows quickly and can be grown in many places. It also last just as long as other hard woods and can be stained any color.

Of course if you looking for some green design tips, stop here, then go on to The Green Guide for some more great info on going green.

Keeping your home clean is no easy task, but add in trying to live a green lifestyle and it makes it even harder. I found a great product that will help you do both and it works very well. It’s called Simple Green. Their line of  cleaning products are made from all natural sources and they do a great job of cleaning your home.

I have used the carpet cleaner myself and it really helped get the stains out. I was surprised at how well it actually worked. Once I have my own home I plan on buying some of there other cleaning products as well. I know I’ll have a good use for all purpose cleaner and the glass cleaner. Once the weather gets nice again I also plan on buying the car wash. I know after a long Michigan winter my car will need it.

So check out these products and let me know what you think.
