The consumer and the planet

Description

Learn how small, everyday actions can conserve energy sources, reduce your carbon footprint, and even save money in the process. This video deciphers "green" marketing claims and labels such as "ENERGY STAR," "DfE," renewable and sustainable. We illustrate eco-friendly ways to buy, prepare, store and dispose of food, and explore methods of saving water, reusing and recycling and trashing trash. Also learn about environmentally friendly clothing care, green pet care, and how to turn a drink of water into an act of kindness toward the planet.
