Whether you believe in making New Year’s resolutions or not, you have to admit that the start of a new year is a great time to contemplate positive improvements to your life—and the place you live. That’s why we’re going to present you with a project that we’re calling the Green Around the House Challenge.
Here’s how it’s going to work: At least once every week in 2009, you’ll see a post on The Home Know-It-All related to going green around the house. Some of these ideas will be easy tips you can do in minutes. Others will require a bit more manpower or money. But all will be geared toward making your home a healthier, more environmentally friendly place.
The goal with the Green Around the House Challenge isn’t to overwhelm you with eco-friendly to-dos. That’s why there’s only one per week. We’re all busy with work and family and friends and DIY projects. But one green challenge a week? You have to admit, that’s pretty doable.
We’re going to roll out the first challenge next Tuesday, when Katie fills us in on how to green our shower curtains. And the week after that? Stay tuned for cool green tools that can help you detect air leaks around your house and more. And that’s just for starters.
So get ready to get green. And be sure to share your going green success stories—not to mention the challenges you might face—in the comments section below each blog post. We really do want to hear from you!
Until tomorrow,
The Home Know-It-All
