Eco-friendly ideas for cleaning up mother nature\u2019s winter wrath<\/p>\n

Athena Snow<\/span><\/span><\/a> <\/span> Jan 27, 2015 <\/span><\/div>\n

As I\u2019ve been watching the coverage of the most recent winter storm, I\u2019ve been wondering about the environmental impact these storms have regarding the materials used for clean-up. The biggest factor is the salt and its impact to the eco-system. Since there is nothing we can do about how our local governments treat the roadways, except voice our concerns about clean-up methods, there is action we can take when it comes to how we deal with the snow around our homes.<\/p>\n

Going Green During Your Winter Clean-up Around the House<\/em><\/p>\n

Of course the best green advice is a back-breaker: shovel. And then shovel more, and you know the rest of the story. But an alternative might be to locate and hire an eco-friendly snow removal company like\u00a0Eco Snow Removal<\/span><\/span><\/a>\u00a0to help you in the process.<\/p>\n

If you want to get high-tech in your snow removal method, you might want to consider having a professional install a\u00a0Sno*Melter<\/span><\/span><\/a>\u00a0on your roof, driveway or sidewalks. How jealous is this going to make your neighbors?<\/p>\n

But if you don\u2019t have the budget for a Sno*Melter anytime soon, then the most common de-icer method ends up being salt. There are all types of products on the market, so make sure to choose wisely because some products can wreak havoc on the environment (and your pets). The least toxic solution is calcium chloride or calcium magnesium acetate (CMA). Be sure to check the labels of the products you are bringing home to ensure you\u2019re not introducing harmful agents around your home. Here is a great\u00a0reference chart<\/span><\/span><\/a>\u00a0to help you in your next purchase.<\/p>\n

Have another green snow or ice removal solution? Share with everyone so we all can get in on the snow day fun.<\/p>\n
