Green House Fun!

Hello My Greenies!

Going green isn't as hard as people think that it is. I started a while ago, just by reducing my carbon footprint by reusing my water bottles and recycling my cans and some recyclable objects that I find on the side of the road on my daily walks. 
Yes, if you want to, you can get a little greener and grown your own food, but the last time I did that, I grew fat. 1 inch tall carrots. **Word to the wise, make sure the soil is loose before you plant your food. It works out a lot better that way. 

My mother plants all of her morning glories and moon glories around her house with some other flowers that I probably couldn't pronounce if I wanted to. That is a good way to go green as well. You don't have to do things like plant your own herbs and food in order to go green. Any planting that you can increases the oxygen in the air, which we obviously need to survive.
