My name is Heather O'Neill and I founded Eco to the People in 2008 after being laid off for the second time in a year.
Committed to living a green lifestyle, I worried that my decreased income might affect my efforts to spend my money in an eco-friendly way. The seed for Eco to the People germinated when I started researching whether I could be green on a shoe string budget.
What I have found is that if you lead a simple life, you do not have to spend more to be eco-friendly. If you are fancy, you do not have to give up life’s little luxuries to be green. And by no means do you have to wear Jesus sandals or eat twigs for dinner in order to do your part. In short, you can be green and be yourself. You just have to know what to look for and what to avoid.
What you’ll find here at Eco to the People are products that my team and I have tried and tested and found to be wonderful, as well as some stupid-easy, step-by-step ways of reducing the waste in your life. I am expanding into book reviews and how-to videos and promote all of my work on Twitter and Facebook so become a fan.
