So Far So Green...It's simple!

Everywhere you look these days, it seems that there’s a new way to go green. But trying to understand the importance of water conservation and indoor air quality and how to improve them can seem like an entirely different language. So Far So Green is the first free email newsletter and website that promotes green products and services that you’ll actually want to use. It’s a straightforward green guide for anyone trying to do their part without drastically changing your lifestyle.

Many products and services don’t seem readily available or accessible for the busy lives we’re accustomed to today. Plenty of companies are trying to jump on the green bandwagon, when their practices and products don’t actually reduce their carbon footprint. So Far So Green helps you avoid this “greenwashing”. They’ll do all the research for you – filtering, vetting, testing - in order to bring you the green products and services that really work.


Launched by a founding team member of Gilt Groupe and fashion industry insiders, So Far So Green offers a new way of looking at green that combines style with an environmentally conscious attitude. So Far So Green was started by Lara Meiland-Shaw and Rachel Wolkowitz. As an expecting mother, Lara found herself much more aware of the household products she was using, what she was eating and thinking about the future of the environment for her children. Rachel was always aware of the importance of taking care of the planet, but over the past few years she felt it her duty to also do more.

As a brand they committed to the idea that going green shouldn’t and doesn’t have to be so hard. They created a “how green” system by taking a product’s entire lifecycle into account. They do all the research in order to bring you only the best green products and services.


Clos-ette’s now received four So Far So Green newsletters and has learned about four great new products – with coupon codes! We didn’t even have to lift a finger – we just signed up for the So Far So Green newsletter on www.sofarsogreen.com. There will be 5 emails weekly, each with a specific target. Monday – Kids, Tuesday – Products, Wednesday – Ask the Expert, Thursday – Travel/Luxe, Friday – Local Services. Most will have discounts and access to perks attached to them. It's green made simple.

To start doing your part, all you have to do is sign up for the newsletter at www.sofarsogreen.com. Or become a fan on Facebook.

XOXO,
Clos-ette
