Who We Are

So you wanna take the plunge and dive into a greener life, eh?

That’s awesome! Wondering where to start?

Here at The Fun Times Guide to Living Green we think that every little step counts.

Some people might say that’s green washing, but we say, let them eat [organic] cake.

You’ll find lots of FUN, simple, creative, easy, and inexpensive ways to begin (or continue) living green!

The good news is you don’t have to be viewed as a weird tree hugger by all your friends in order to live a green(er) life.

Likewise, you don’t have to empty your bank account, cover your roof in solar panels, install components to harvest rainwater, or build a new house out of hay bales either.

Welcome to the journey. Maybe TOGETHER we can change the world.

I think every little step toward living green is an awesome one... but eco-snobbery sucks! My goal is to help newbies learn the most important steps toward living green -- individually and collectively. Personally, I strive to have as little impact as possible on Planet Earth while I'm here.

As an advocate for good health, I usually try to choose the 'greener' option over other more dangerous and/or wasteful options. Generally speaking, if it's bad for your health or the planet, I try to avoid it. In my effort to live green, I like to find new (healthier) budget-friendly ways to do things -- from cleaning to recycling to home decorating. My goal is to help you take the chore out of living green by sharing fun new ecofriendly ideas that you can try today... or any day! My all-time favorite way to live green is to repurpose items and give them a new use -- and I've written a lot of DIY articles showing how I've done it.

I like reading, gardening, and writing about lots of different topics. I'm always scribbling down ideas at weird times and in weird places.

My experience with living green consists of taking baby steps (like making one big change each year as my New Year's resolution) -- because I've seen too many people burn out on trying to 'Save the Planet'. I share a lot of Simple Ways To Go Green, as I find new and successful strategies that have worked for me. While I'm baby-stepping my ecofriendly habits in life, you will find me at the corner of Good News & Fun Times as publisher of The Fun Times Guide (32 fun & helpful websites).
