How
do I balance my baby's carbon footprint?
5 easy steps to a
carbon balanced baby
We
at carbon-balanced-baby.org understand
the daily
challenges that providing for an infant to toddler-aged child presents.
We also
understand that practicality and convenience can sometimes override a
“greener”
option when it comes to diapering your baby, what kind of laundry
detergents
you use, toys to buy, etc. We have also seen, as has been described on this
site,
how regardless of your choice in diaper options they
will always be a
significant impact
on the environment and the greenhouse effect. But every
effort on your part, small or large, will have a beneficial reduction
on
your
baby’s footprint size and improve our planet’s health. Our goal
is to provide you
with the information and resources necessary to decide,
for yourself, how you
take care of your baby, keep her comfortable and responsibly balance
her effect
on the environment. We want your feedback
and ideas as
well, so please respond
to us when you can.
