Ecolo-Planet

In order to save energy and money, get yourself and install time-switches anywhere you can, inside or outside your house. In the summer, as soon as you start up your pool, the installation of a time-switch is a must.

Pool filters don’t need to work 24hours per day. Furthermore, stopping your filter will allow you to relax in your own backward, pool or spa! And if you sleep with your windows open, you will sleep better !

When it is the Holidays, while you put on your lights and Christmas decoration, don’t forget to install a time-switch. This rule is good for all the interior and exterior decorations. It is also valid for your Christmas tree.

You ca also install a time-switch for your vehicle’s motor block-heater, in winter time of course. Between 4 and 6 hours of heating is enough.

The respect of the ecology and the environment is everywhere nowadays. Either in the Medias, at work or in our homes…

The ecological trend is even in our wardrobe. Indeed, after the ecological shoes of Gisele Bundchen, here is the boutique La Gaillarde !

This boutique offers a quantity of eco friendly clothing and accessories. The mission of the boutique La Gaillarde is to offer ethical, ecological, practical and trendy cloths to her customers by promoting the local talents of our designers and to contribute to the economy of their neighbourhood (St-Henri, Montreal).

They advocate the reutilisation of cloths so don’t hesitate to go drop off the cloths you don’t wear anymore. You can also bring them practically anything. You can join them at (514) 989-5134.

The boutique La Gaillarde also offers you sewing lessons and they make every month a free fashion show. You will find more information about them on their website.

Congratulations to the boutique La Gaillarde for this initiative !

In a time where we need to diminish what we consummate, Ikea offers an interesting solution… With the Ikea car, you can contribute to reduce the global warming. Indeed, the Ikea car, that you assemble at home, with his reduced packing, allows a notable reduction of the toxically emanations… There is also a non-negligible benefit because of the reduction of the assembly factories that needs a lot of electricity.

We recommend, if you are quit crafty and dexterous, the Ikea car kit.

Please note : you will probably need a truck to transport the box of the Ikea car… the box is a bit bulky !

Changing the shower-head for a shower-head with a reduce debit will reduce the quantity of hot water used. And hot water is pricy !

So why so many people delay or refuse to do so ?

It is pretty easy to change the shower-head. If you are not at ease, ask an expert at your local hardware store.

Stop asking yourself why to change the shower-head and act now !

For a 4 person family that takes a daily shower, the savings are significant. So imagine the savings on drinkable water and energy for the society and the planet !

Citizens, those poor consumers, are called, with the help of brainwashing type publicities, to take the responsibility for recycling. Either, citizens are asking for it… People want to be very responsible towards their planet. They want their government to be as well. Just like municipalities and businesses.

But all of this has a cost. What is that cost ? Nobody knows, and nobody really wants to know! Why ? Because the recycling calculus is very complex. And we are not sure that we want to know ! Here is the recycling rip off working… let me elaborate… Read the rest of this entry »

When you leave a room, close the lights !
When you leave your house, close the lights other then the presence lights.
When you get to sleep, close the lights in the house and also the exterior lights.

Changing, in the house anywhere where there is a big lightning, the light bulbs for light bulbs of a smaller power (less of watts) is not necessary. For example, replacing the corridor 100 watts light bulbs for 60 Watts light bulbs. They need less power. You can also use graduated switch to minimise your using.

With many little actions like this one add up together, in one year, you will save some money and help the planet !

This is how we love our artists! Pretty and taking responsibilities for the environment !
