Fast and easy lifestyle changes
Now more than ever the planet and all of us people really need more to join up with our Eco lifestyles and make the change in whatever direction you can. The only way we can truly slow down global warming and breath cleaner air is if more people take notice and make changes today, here are some simple ways you can start living green!
First of all, you need to think about water. The earth is made up of mostly water, but thats not drinking water so think preservation. To really make a change we need to stop buying bottled water, the production of plastic bottles merged with the preservation of our water is all negative. Stick to pure drinking water or buy a water filter, its better for you longterm.
How about joining a local community that deals in preservation or recycling? Every city has something that deals with our planet and Eco living. If you cant find anything then why not create your own community, invite family and friends to join which will spread the word for you. Dedicate an evening or two a week to all things green.
Give up the cigarettes, aside from the obvious health effects smoking is really damaging to our planet, our clean air is already fading so passive smoking does not help the earths atmosphere. If your a big beef eater, swap it for something healthier the expensive production of beef is damaging not to mention the health issues from constant beef eating so make the right change today!

Green Friendly Lodge
Its always a hit with the tourists when a resort is dedicated to Eco-Friendly practices and resorts dedicated to green living. Now Indonesia has joined the list of popular destinations with a brand new lodge which is surrounded by wild orangutans all protected in a natural habitat.
The remote Rimba Orangutan Eco Lodge is based in South Kilimantan where a large selection of endangered orangutans are kept where visitors can greet the happy creatures and learn all about their habitat and how they can help protect them and other endangered animal species.
By using rainwater and compost systems the hotel also sponsors various conservation projects and and enlists local guides to take the visitors to see the orangutans in the wild. This is a very popular tourist activity and it really helps to promote awareness of the threat these beautiful animals face everyday in the wild.
This new addition to the Eco-Friendly tourism and local awareness will really promote a stronger awareness in Indonesia and surrounding area’s, especially since in the past it has come under fire over issues such as rising greenhouse gas emissions brought on by various negative activities. Already people are becoming aware of this protection for the orangutans and are flying over especially to see them and learn what they can in order to preserve this wildlife and many more. There are to many species becoming endangered everyday due to human interference and loss of their natural habitat so we all need to work together and do what we can to preserve these wonderful creatures.

Snack foods
In this fast moving world a lot of people tend to rely on junk foods for a quick snack during the day, every now and again its just a simple option but when you have this kind of food constantly it really benefits nobody, its all negative. There are many alternatives to junk food for a quick breakfast, lunch or snack in the evening and they are all Eco-Friendly and very healthy.
If you are looking for something to accompany your morning cup of tea or coffee in the afternoon then instead of reaching for a heavily calorie filled chocolate bar why not opt for a tasty organic cookie instead. Its light, organic and comes in different flavors including mint and chocolate. Newman’s own organics have their own brand available now.
A simple salad can give you a good source of energy during the day for lunch or a snack, lettuce, egg mayonnaise, tomatoes, and baby carrots with some fresh low fat organic dressing to top it of is a perfect alternative to a lunch time burger. If you are a big meat eater switch to a healthy salad for a change and your body will start to feel the difference, not to mention the environment.
Finally you can not go wrong with some fresh home grown fruit, mix some of your favorites together and prepare a fruit salad, its a very healthy option. Just be sure to purchase your fruit from your local market, its a better option in terms of transport and freshness.

Calendars for the home and office
As everyone knows there is a lot of waste involved in various types of paper products so calendars are no exception. However many people seemed to have changed their ways now and opted for different forms of calendars that you would find on your computer or cellphone. Now though, if you are a fan of the classic calendars then here is a selection of Eco-Friendly ones to start organizing your life and daily planner better.
OliveBarn have created some plantable paper calendars, meaning no trees where cut down in order to produce them. The base fiber is made from 100% post consumer waste and the paper is made with wildflower seeds. They contain beautiful patterns all around the design, with a variety of bright colors, you can find these as a desk calendar or wall calendar depending on your taste.
The main thing to look out for when searching for an Eco calendar is something that comes from natural sources without harming tree’s along the way. Trees provide our planet with some much needed oxygen and they are been cut down in very high numbers to create paper which is then disposed back into the atmosphere.
Eco calendars are just another positive step forward in the fight against global warming and our hope for an Eco world. You could even create your own using some recycled paper and some photographs to make it really personal with an Eco feel, it will brighten up your message and remind you each day of the important message it contains to live green.
