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.

Sillapere Events & Environments

Why It's Good:

Based in San Francisco, Nicole Sillapere and her colleagues create modern events with style and sophistication—without the waste.

Why It's Green:

With its "buy local" mantra, Sillapere likes to pretend its clients exist on a remote island that can't be reached by the outside world. The result? Fresh local produce and flowers, reduced use of fossil fuels and packaging, and relationships with local artisans. Promoting sustainable style through its use of recycled paper invitations and eco-fleece confetti made of remnant fabric, Sillapere's parties are something to celebrate.
