Greener Dish Cleaning:

Many dishwashing liquids are non-biodegradable and contain phosphates that harm our freshwater sources. To clean pans without a toxic detergent, fill with cold water, a lot of salt and a slice of onion. Let pan set overnight, then bring to a boil for 5 minutes. Once cool, the burnt food will come right off.

West Elm Bamboo-Cotton Throw

Why It's Good:

This cashmere-soft bamboo-cotton throw provides just the right amount of lightweight warmth for air-conditioned rooms and brisk nights by the beach. Use it as a snug layer during the cold-weather months.

Why It's Green:

This throw is 70 percent rayon from bamboo and 30 percent cotton. Bamboo, a natural cellulose fiber that is converted into yarns without the addition of chemicals, is 100 percent biodegradable; fibers from bamboo stems are naturally cool, absorbent and antibacterial.
