Green? The color of Kermit the Frog?
Thinking green? What the hell does that mean?
Are you minimizing the trips to the store so you won't add to polution? Are you going to the store to buy that toothpaste you forgot to buy? That's not thinking green.
Are you aware that there is a poison warning on most toothpastes? Whoa! You can look for it on the tube, but you threw out the warning with the box. Your face may turn green if it makes you sick. But it doesn't do it immediately. It takes time.
Do you know how many products are laced with the same anti-freeze the airlines use to de-ice the wings of their airplanes? This stuff isn't green, but you swallow it on a regular basis. You didn't know that? For one, this stuff is in many vitamin brands.
Do you know that there is a chemical in many toothpastes that is also used in a degreaser? Yuck! And, yeah, it's even in the one that says it's Natural (is it natural to tell a lie?). There is nothing natural about this stuff. I don't suppose you knew that either, did you? For the crazies that think Bush lied, there are way too many people selling you stuff that can cause you a lot of harm. Somehow that isn't what makes the news.
The FDA is lying by saying High Fructose Corn Syrup isn't harmful. Whoa! That stuff turns to fat, thanks to the liver, and it is one of many culprits that aid in the onset of Diabetes. It's in almost every soft drink (yum), almost every bread, ice cream, and much more. Modified Corn Starch, Maltodextrin, and Corn Syrup are many of the sugar substitutes that are causing you harm. It's time to read the labels and to stop buying garbage.
And how about our pals the Chinese? Poison in the toothpaste. Gotta love those Chicoms for poisoning the toothpaste, the dog food, and baby formula. Yeah, buy that cheap Chinese crap for your kids and then ask yourself why they aren't doing well in school. It just might be the lead in the toy that hasn't been outed yet.
It's ok to be green in your driving and daily habits, but what about your body? What are you putting into it or on it? You can buy that cheap stuff, but do you know what's in it? Don't go just half-way on going green. Go all the way. You'll likely last longer than your car if you do.
