How to Make Your Bedroom Greener

danny_blogimage.jpgEco-friendly living expert Danny Seo was born on Earth Day in 1977, so perhaps it’s fitting that he has been actively involved in environmental causes since he was a young boy. In fact, he founded the grassroots organization Earth 2000 when he was just 12 years old! Here, he shares his top tips for making your bedroom more eco-friendly. (Stay tuned for more great ideas from Danny on how to improve other aspects of your life, from your school locker to your next birthday party!) For more info on Danny, visit dannyseo.com and his personal blog, dailydanny.com.

 ”I say start with the most obvious feature of the bedroom: the bed itself. For the best sleep, I try to get the healthiest, allergy-free sleep as much as possible. The easiest thing you can do is pick-up an organic cotton mattress pad/encasement cover for your mattress and bed pillows. This not only protects your bedding, but it creates a barrier between you and any microscopic organisms (like dust mites) that might be lurking inside. If you’re in the market for a new mattress, look for one made from natural materials, like natural latex and soy-enhanced foam. Not only do they come from renewable resources (rubber tree sap and soybeans), but they are inherently dust-mite, mold and mildew resistant. I actually designed a mattress line called the Simmons Natural Care by Danny Seo (naturalcarebed.com) that’s affordable, comfy and comes with a 20-year warranty. Finally, make sure your bed smells fresh by spraying real essential oil-based linen mist on your sheets before you slumber off (try Wholearth by Danny Seo body and linen mist; wholearthbeauty.com - available starting April 22).”
