Did You Know?: Breathe

The air inside a house can get stuffier than a nose in flu season, forcing many of us to spend time outside where we are exposed to the elements: The sun, fresh air, a spring breeze blowing gingerly across our knitted brows. Yes. Outside is awesome.

But we didn't spend good money on a house to laze near a bush. We spent that money so we could sit on a couch and eat pretzels while we watch sports teams futility compete in events of no lasting importance.

All kidding aside, the air quality of our homes can be affected by almost anything: The paints we use, our pets, our air conditioners, the finishes of our woods, particle board that lurks inside cheaply made furniture, cleaning products, etc.

With all that stuff floating around our homes, it's a wonder we can breathe easy at all. There are ways, however, to clear your home's air. Using green cleansers, buying green products and decorating with eco-friendly paints are a few of those ways.

"Did You Know" is a series of green tips and enlightening videos on planetgreen.com
