Greenie represents our product approval team, which
uses a set of stringent guidelines for approving
businesses and products that are listed in our
natural products store directory. At a minimum, all
products are 100% natural, vegetarian, non-animal
tested, and free of ingredients that are harmful to
you and the environment, such as PVC, artificial
fillers and preservatives, and synthetic ingredients
often found in personal care products, like parabens,
sodium lauryl sulfate and petroleum derived
chemicals. We place a preference on products that
are organic certified (USDA, Quality Assurance
International, Oregon Tilth), use recycled
materials, and are sustainably harvested with little
to no impact on the environment. We also give
preference to businesses that are Co-op America
approved, Fair Trade Certified and who participate
in Carbon offset programs like the Carbon Fund.
Furthermore, we also look beyond what it means to be
Organic and Fair Trade Certified. We are committed
to supporting small farms and local businesses, who
although might not have the resources to get an
organic certification, are nonetheless committed to
sustainable and holistic living. Only after
having done a thorough investigation, including a
direct correspondence with these types of businesses
will we consider recommending them on our site.
During all of our travels, whether it's attending
"green expos" like the Green Fest in DC or in green
cities like Chicago and Portland, we are always on
the lookout for sustainable businesses.
In other words, we only recommend the freshest,
healthiest and most environmentally friendly and
sustainable products being sold on the Web. This is
important, because there are many companies seeking
to take advantage of the healthy lifestyle market,
but in reality, do not abide by the principles of
what it truly means to be non-toxic, holistically
healthy, organic, 100% natural and environmentally
sustainable.
Furthermore, our Greenie Seal of Approval means we
will never recommend anything to you in order to
make a quick buck. There are plenty of online
companies out there pitching "miracle cures" and
"secret guides to looking healthy". Believe us
folks, There is no "secret". The knowledge of living
a healthy and fulfilling life should be free for
all. The products and books listed at
SaveWithGreen.com are strictly to help facilitate
and enrich the holistic way of life, and nothing
more.
That being said, we guarantee your satisfaction at
all of the green online retailers listed at
SaveWithGreen.com.
Just look for the
Greenie Seal of Approval...
