Thesexygreenhome rating system
It is almost impossible to create a product that does not have some kind of negative environmental impact. However there are now many positive things that can be incorporated into production and manufacture that can help offset those negative influences on the environment.
Environmentally sensitive producers today are coming up with new and imaginative ways to reduce their eco-footprint and strive towards cleaner and safer materials for the home.
We thought it might be fun to create our own green material and product rating system to help you know the environmental credibility of the product your are curious about right away!
The eco-friendly materials mentioned on our site have the potential to accumulate green points up to a total of 10! The higher the rating the more environmentally friendly the product!
