Taking a trip to the recycling center doesn't seem like it is very romantic, and it is wholly unromantic to take the light of your life to the junkyard to salvage some building materials. How can you add some sustainable spice to your green love life?

Here are three tips on how to have an eco-responsible love life.

  1. Take showers together. Two people using one person's water is very ecologically friendly. It is also friendly in other ways. Make sure to wash each other with natural sponges, eco-friendly shampoos made with nothing but all-natural ingredients and organic soaps.

  2. Turn of the air conditioner and walk around naked. This is a bad idea if your in-laws are coming over to the house for crab cakes, but it is a wonderful idea when you and your loved one are home alone on a hot day. And, if you can actually take your mind and hands off each other, think about the electricity savings.

  3. Set the mood with soy. I know, sounds horrible. But they make a line of soy-based massage oils and soy-based candles. You and your loved one can rub each other's backs, ease some tensions and ease the planet's burden all at the same time.
