Are you lost in a sea of green?  Without a guide book to navigate the way, the growth in public eco awareness has been largely through personal experience and situational application.  While general concepts can be used to describe the broad topic of living green, many of our clients approach us with confusion as to where to start in living a sustainable lifestyle.
