Clean Your Grill - Without The Harsh Formulas

There’s a simple, organic way to clean your outdoor grill, without having to use the typical store-bought chemical formulas and sprays. All you need is a little bit of baking soda, a little bit of vinegar and a stiff brush. Apply some baking soda to the rack, then dab it with vinegar, which will create a foam. Then scrub the rack with the brush, and be sure to rinse it before its next use.

Make Your Swimming Pool Green - In A Good Way!

Pool owners can lessen your pool’s environmental impact by using a pool cover, as uncovered pools lose thousands of gallons of water every year through evaporation. Also, chlorine from your pool water can be very damaging to waterways or lawns, so you should avoid adding chlorine for approximately one week before draining the pool. Finally, consider a bubble cover or blanket that collects solar energy and locks in the heat for your pool water, rather than using pool heaters which require a lot of energy (and a lot of money) to run.
