Part of what sets Green Evolution apart from other sustainability consulting companies is our attention to the residential sector. People are faced with many choices every single day, and these choices have a direct impact on our environment and our community. To make matters more confusing than they already are, we have been bombarded with greenwashing, environmental marketing claims that sound nice but are technically meaningless.
Rather than simply providing you a number of oversimplified tips on how to be more environmentally friendly, Green Evolution uses everyday examples that are specific to your situation to help you understand the impacts of your decisions and make better choices now and into the future.
Green Evolution provides in-home consultations to address issues specific to your situation and your immediate environment. Some of these issues include:
- Carbon Footprint Analysis
- EMF / RF Radiation
- Energy Efficiency
- Environmentally Preferable Purchasing
- Food
- Green Building / LEED Management
- Indoor Air Quality
- Pollution Prevention
- Renewable Energy
- Toxics
- Transportation
- Water Conservation
- Water Quality
- Zero Waste / Recycling
In addition to reducing impact on the environment, solutions to these issues can save money and reduce health risks. Contact us to discuss your situation and your goals.
Save Money
Green Evolution understands that no matter how good the intentions, financial considerations are often the strongest influence on any decision. Good thing that in many cases, actions that save the environment also save money! We focus on solutions that save you money in both the short term and the long term. These savings come in many forms, including:
- Reduced resource costs (energy, water, fuel)
- Reduced product costs
- Reduced disposal costs
- Potentially reduced health care costs over the long term
Reduce Health Risks
During the last 50 years, more than 80,000 synthetic chemicals have entered the environment. Many of the conveniences of modern life are made possible by these chemicals. But because of a loophole in the law, most synthetic chemicals are not tested for toxicity before they enter the market. This is an important point, as many Americans assume that products would not be allowed into the market if they were not safe. Unfortunately, this is not the case. Now these chemicals are finding their way into our bodies, and we are witnessing unprecedented increases in human disease and ecological damage, despite rapid medical advances.
The policy trend has been to wait until toxic chemicals like DDT take a devastating toll before banning them and the medical trend has been to focus on treating health problems after they have already developed. At Green Evolution, we believe humans are more than chemical guinea pigs and want to help prevent health problems from developing in the first place.
The risks are everywhere and can seem overwhelming, but you cannot lead a green and healthy lifestyle without understanding the impacts of your daily decisions. Green Evolution can show you steps you can take to protect yourself and your loved ones and arm you with knowledge that can help you for the rest of your life.
