What is Green Living?

There are various facets to our day to day activities, starting from what kind of food we eat, to what type of cloth we put on, to our power consumption capacity, to what technology we use in our everyday life, to what mode of transportation we take, to what investment we make. Green living is making choices that promote the sustainability of our health, our communities, and our environment.  

 I tend to view green living as a sort of continuum that is highly personalized and looks different for everyone involved.  It is an extension of healthy living that helps people and the planet and is the act of living with the intent of interacting with the environment in a way that prevents as much harm to it as possible.   The goal is to change the purpose of how we live and create a balanced lifestyle that works with nature rather against it.  This is possible when personal awareness is tended to and eco-conscious choices are made in our daily lives.

What Can You Do For Mother Nature?

Global warming is the increase in temperature of the earth's surface. Because of the greenhouse gases like carbon dioxide, nitrous oxide and methane, the earth is unable to release the heat on the earth's atmosphere.

With enough awareness and actions, we'll be able to help preserve earth's beauty.  Here are some tips y

Understanding the Value of Time Management

Image
Time management should be one of the qualities that you should take very seriously if you are looking at your personal development.   It is rightly said that a person who does not respect time does not respect his or her own self.   How would one define time management actually?   Is it about making a timetable and abiding by it?   Or is it about allotting a specific time to do your daily tasks?   Or is it about separating time for work, play, food and everything else that a human needs to do?

When a person masters the art of doing that, they can be called as good time manage
