Sure, we’ve all heard that our favorite celebrities are going green. We see photos of them buying organic, driving hybrid cars, and installing solar panels on their expansive homes. But a recent article in People described a new book that gives us an even closer look at not only what we can do, but what else our favorite stars and their families are doing to keep the green movement going strong.
The book, Healthy Child Healthy World: Creating a Cleaner, Greener, Safer Home by Christopher Gavigan, helps parents understand how chemicals and toxins in their families’ cleaning products, cosmetics, foods, home furnishings, and toys can be affecting their health.Gavigan not only provides simple and budget-friendly ways to make your home healthier and more environmentally friendly, but includes advice and personal anecdotes from a number of celebrities, including Gwyneth Paltrow, Tom Hanks, Keri Russell, Brooke Shields, and Michelle Obama.
The article outlined Gwyneth’s organic strategy, including a recipe for her kids’ favorite veggie sticks, how Tobey Maguire and Jennifer Meyer prepared their baby’s nursery with low VOC-paint and hardwood floors, and how Holly Robinson Peete deals with her kids’ asthma by avoiding carpets and harsh cleaning products. For once, these are some celebrity examples we might want to follow.
Healthy Child Healthy World is the perfect guide for any family looking for easy ways to go green and all parents trying to make their homes safer for their children. For more information, visit the book’s website at http://healthychild.org/book.
