Going Green for Baby (FM)

It seems that everywhere you turn you are encountering ads for eco-friendly products, companies that are becoming more eco-sensitive, and suggestions as to how you can live more eco-responsible.

For this show I brought back The Baby Planners (www.thebabyplanners.com) to talk about how the baby industry was expanding by leaps and bounds in this area. And how new parents are making an effort to "go green" with their baby, because of their baby!!

They shared what they have learned by working with "Green Experts" in this industry, as well as some of their favorite organic, natural and sustainable products available for newborns. You can also check out their Ultrasound blog on their website to get more specifics.

Then Missy Adams, a Greening Your Nursery Expert from Seventh Generation shared her company's new collaboration with Healthy Child, Healthy World to create an eco-friendly diaper bag with 100% of the profits going to educate parents about environment safety. Missy also discussed 10 Green Nursery Tips.

I was very impressed with Seventh Generation -- in the products that they have created for baby such as chlorine free diapers, wipes and specially formulated Baby laundry detergent, and for their cleaning products for the home. I also appreciated their mission of being "the trusted brand for your living home."
