@paige green: Those would be yellow babies wouldn’t they?

I’m always amused by the term “green baby“. Are we raising a whole generation of children with jaundice?

But it’s great to see parents really taking the care to make these sorts of decisions. Keep up the great work.

Thanks for these great ideas – it is a very comprehensive article.

A couple of additions you might consider looking into:

5. Clean Green: what about not using shampoo? I’ve only just started doing this, a bunch of Mums on a forum I am on are doing it, here is one link about it;

For 3. Choose reusable nappies, or perhaps
8. Reduce, reuse, recycle
How about reducing nappy use with some elimination communication? I’m about to launch my own site on the topic, called Part Time Nappy Free. I have a page about minimising Cloth ‘real’ nappy use with EC at http://www.parttimenappyfree.com.au/Modern-Cloth-Nappies.htm
and a page about global warming and EC here: http://www.parttimenappyfree.com.au/global-warming-EC.htm

I’d like to invite you and your visitors to come over and visit my “Launch” page:
