”A la Carte Green” is about making green choices on a daily basis, in a manner that works for you. It's about trying and choosing greener options "a la carte" because there is no one size fits all solution. Not everyone can walk to work or have solar panels, but we can choose to bring waste-free lunches, or to dry our clothes in the sunshine. You get the picture. Small “A la Carte Green” choices made by each person will have positive impacts. Which green options will you choose?

Ecstatic over "Ecomat"
I needed a new rug in the mudroom and I found a really neat "ecomat". Of course the name caught my attention, but it looks wicked cool because it looks like river rocks, and is a multi-level surface that traps dirt. The durable base is made recycled rubber that is reclaimed from scrap tires! The mission of the company, Apache Mills is a "cleaner environment through the use of recycled materials in their products". I love the look of the rug, the function of the rug, and I especially LOVE that is made using reclaimed scrap tires. The more companies that figure out uses for recyclable materials the better. I smile every time I wipe my feet on it.
