Of all of the areas in your life to green over, baby stuff might just be the most important – not just to train the littlest members of society in environmental awareness, but because chemicals and toxins that are already iffy for adults have a greater impact on babies 1/20th our size.

Fortunately, over the last few years a crop of books, blogs and web sites has surfaced to offer advice on the growing variety of organic baby products.  Sifting through thousands of pages and weighing sometimes contradictory opinions may seem like a daunting task for an overwhelmed parent or parent-to-be; after all, only the best – and safest – for baby will do. So we've scoured the literature and canvassed the experts to create a concise guide that can get you started. Each section – clothing, gear, food,  the nursery, and diapers and baby care products –  gives you a summary of health concerns and a host of solutions to give you peace of mind and give baby a happy, healthy start.
