In honor of Earth Day, which is today, April 22, FindAnyFloor.com has taken a company–wide poll to choose their top 5 favorite easy ways to live green. As a result, here is our countdown of Earth Day inspired “easy green living” choices:

5. Replace your harsh toxic household cleaners with green, eco–friendly cleaning products. This can include not only your floor cleaners, but just about any other cleaning product you have in your home. You can find a safe, green alternative for almost any common household cleaning product you can think of.

4. Start an at–home recycling program. It’s simple. All you need is a few large containers to divide your recyclables – one for plastic, one for metals, one for paper, and voila! You have an at–home recycling center.

3. As often as possible, walk or ride your bike instead of driving your car or SUV. This can not only help to reduce our dependence on petroleum, but can also promote a healthier cardiovascular system and help you save money, making it one of our top Earth Day “easy green living” choices.

2. Replace those old incandescent light–bulbs with compact fluorescent light bulbs (CFL’s) already! You’ve probably heard this one a thousand times by now, but seriously go do it if you haven’t already. This is one of FindAnyFloor.com’s top easy green choices as it not only helps to conserve energy, but helps to keep your dollars where they belong – in your pocket.

1. And FindAnyFloor’s #1 Earth Day “easy green living” choice is… Next time you purchase new flooring opt for eco–friendly green flooring choices. Yes, this is a little predictable coming from an informational flooring website, but using eco–friendly green flooring can have a huge impact on preserving our beloved planet earth.

Flooring makes the most sense when considering greener options .Think about it: we walk on carpet, hardwood, vinyl, laminate in our homes. We drive on concrete on our way to work... we ride up elevators with some type of floor or do up stairs with some type of flooring. We have to walk on something - stone, hardwood, fake hardwood, rugs etc!!! It is America, we have very few dirt roads here so why not make everything eco-friendly... that would help with pollutants and allergens in the air as well... this makes sense... (P.S. I rode my bike for my morning commute on Earth Day!)
