Go Green this 4th of July

That’s right everyone, 4th of July is just around the corner.  Go out and flaunt your red, white, blue, and….green colors!

While you’re out celebrating your country’s freedom and independence, support its sustainability as well by being eco-friendly.  It’s not unusual that one’s festivities on this national holiday are detrimental to the earth, whether it be the carbon emitted from grilling steaks or the litter we produce from using plastic plates, cups, and silverware.

I’m not trying to rain on your patriotic parade, but rather to offer some friendly advice on how to celebrate green.  Such techniques include avoiding plastics, which you can achieve by using New Wave’s EASTAR resin drinking water bottle to quench your thirst and packing your picnic food in New Wave’s 100% Bamboo lunch bag and stainless steel food containers.

Other tips include….

-Lightening up your fireworks

-Going green with grilling

-Including organic foods and sustainable vegetable-based items in your 4th of July Menu
