			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-98" title="paper-towels" src="http://greenteamindy.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/paper-towels-300x195.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="195" />With paper towels making up 3,000 tons of landfill trash every day, it&#8217;s hard to justify using those disposables—no matter how convenient they are—and it feels even harder to stop. But if you think about all the tasks you use a paper towel for, it&#8217;s easy to figure out how to replace them, from using microfiber towels on glass and mirrors to turning old shirts into rags to mop up messier spills. For more how-tos on giving up the roll, try these seven simple replacements.</p>
<p><strong> </strong></p>
<p><strong>1. To dry your hands</strong></p>
<p>This is an easy one: there are plenty of ways to dry your hands without using paper. Cloth towels are simplest—and the prettiest, if you&#8217;re interested in keeping the look of your kitchen or bathroom up-to-date; try organic cotton towels for an even greener solution. You could also take your cues from Ed Begley, Jr., and his wife, Rachelle, and install an electric hand dryer, especially if you&#8217;re providing your home with power from an alternative energy source, like solar or wind. Even simpler? Just give your hands a quick shake and let them air dry.</p>
<p><strong>2. To wipe the counter</strong></p>
<p>If you&#8217;re used to grabbing a paper towel for every drip, crumb, and splatter that ends up on your tile, then your household waste will see a big reduction by replacing those paper towels with the reusable option that worked so well for generations: the sponge. From pushing crumbs into the trashcan to using a damp sponge to wipe up coffee stains and spaghetti sauce, a simple sponge is one of the most utilitarian tools in your kitchen—and if you&#8217;re worried about spreading bacteria, use the tried-and-true trick of microwaving a wet sponge for about 30 seconds to kill germs.</p>
<p><strong>3. To soak up spills</strong></p>
<p>For sopping up simple spills—water, fruit juice, cooking splatter—use absorbent cloth towels and wash them with your place mats, cloth napkins, and other food-prep fabrics. For more complicated spills, like juice from raw meat, set aside separate towels and wash them after each use to prevent bacteria from spreading—and keep in mind that using your hand towel without washing your hands after touching food will mean it, too, needs to be washed more often.</p>
<p><strong>4. To shine glass</strong></p>
<p>You can make your own glass cleaner from lemon juice, rubbing alcohol, vinegar, dish soap, and water, but when it comes to applying it to glass, sponges can leave streaks and terrycloth towels can give you a mirror covered in fuzz. Instead, use microfiber towels from Method that are specially-designed to work on glass and mirrors—or copy another trick from housekeeping gurus and use newspaper for a streak-free shine.</p>
<p><strong>5. To scrub the bathroom</strong></p>
<p>We understand if this is the one room in your home that makes you most inspired to use disposable cleaning products, but the rules that apply in your kitchen apply here, too: use a microfiber glass cleaner; microwave sponges and wash your scrubbing towels after every use to kill bacteria; and use non-toxic cleaners to keep your bathroom free from harsh chemicals.</p>
<p><strong>6. To prep vegetables</strong></p>
<p>Using paper towels to pat dry vegetables might not be the biggest drain on your weekly supply of disposables, but removing excess water will help when steaming, blanching, or drying raw veggies (and those techniques can help you preserve your fresh bounty for winter use). Simple cotton towels are your new best friend, here—or look for linen towels that absorb just as well without releasing any fibers.</p>
<p><strong>7. To blow your nose</strong></p>
<p>Grabbing a paper towel instead of a tissue during sneezing fits is probably hard enough on your nose that you don&#8217;t need more incentive to switch; but if you&#8217;re apt to grab a towel when the Kleenex aren&#8217;t close at hand, then try this trick from grandfathers everywhere: a handkerchief. Just make sure to grab a clean one each morning and—as with all your towels—wash them regularly.</p>

To help your lighting become more eco-friendly, we&#8217;ve shone the spotlight on Planet Green&#8217;s &#8220;How to Go Green: Lighting.&#8221;</p>
<h2>Top Tips for Greening Your Lighting</h2>
<p><em>CFL:</em> Compact fluorescent light bulbs work like this: Instead of a filament lit up with electrical energy, there are two main parts in a compact fluorescent light bulb: a gas-filled tube (also called bulb or burner) and the magnetic or electronic ballast.</p>
<p><em>Sweet E-Motion:</em> Some areas of your house—garage, bathroom, porch, basement, attic, laundry room, etc.—aren&#8217;t as busy as others. That&#8217;s where motion sensors become practical. When someone enters one of these spaces, the sensor catches their movement and switches on the light. Otherwise, it remains dark.</p>
<p><em>Sun Worship:</em> Try as we might, humans are no match for the mighty sun and &#8220;daylighting&#8221; is one method to welcome some free sunshine into your home. Those who can might consider installing skylights or putting as many windows on the south-facing side of the house as possible. A much simpler choice is keeping your blinds open.</p>
<p><strong>Did You Know?</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>19% of global electricity generation is taken for lighting</li>
<li>10% of global electricity could be saved by switching to entirely efficient lighting systems</li>
<li>If every American home replaced just one standard bulb with a CF bulb, it would save enough energy to light more than 3 million homes for a year</li>
</ul>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-228" title="overflowing-dishwasher" src="http://greenteamindy.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/overflowing-dishwasher-300x195.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="195" />The New York Times offered some great advice recently for saving on home energy and water bills while also increasing efficiency and prolonging the life of home appliances like dishwashers and washing machines.</p>
<p>Read the <a href="http://www.nytimes.com/2010/03/13/your-money/13shortcuts.html" target="_blank">full story</a> for a better understanding, but here are the highlights:</p>
<p><strong>Too much soap = bad.</strong> Aside from being a waste, excessive use of soap can actually stiffen your clothes, shorten the life of your appliances, lead to buildup of mold and mildew, and at times will not be fully rinsed—which means wearing or eating soap. Mmm. The proper amount, reports The Times, is often &#8220;one-eighth to one-half of what is usually recommended.&#8221; (Check out Michael&#8217;s tips for determining how much dishwasher soap is right for your home.)</p>
<p><strong>Pre-rinsing = also bad.</strong> It&#8217;s a waste of water—we&#8217;re talking thousands of gallons. Plus, according to one dishwasher expert, it actually makes the dishwasher less effective because there will be nothing for the soap to work against.</p>
<p>So&#8230; except for when dishes really have food caked on, skip the pre-rinsing. Even in those cases, consider leaving the desperately dirty dishes in the sink while you wash other things—your hands, pots that don&#8217;t fit in the dishwasher, etc.—and let the wastewater from that do the soaking. Efficiency is easy! Or here&#8217;s a trick my dad came up with: instead of rinsing, simply load and start the dishwasher as normal, then stop it a minute or so into the cycle. Now that the dishes are wet (with water that&#8217;s already going to be used), let them soak, and then just restart a few minutes later.</p>
<p>Also, use eco-friendly detergents. The chemicals used in major brands are not only toxic for the environment, they&#8217;re pretty harmful to human health as well. When inhaled or come into contact with skin, they are absorbed by the body—an effect that is exacerbated by dishwashers and other appliances that use and emit heat (and release smaller compounds, which can work their way more easily into small spaces like the lining of your lungs and other organs). Brands like such as Seventh Generation are great—or you can always try making your own.</p>

And while there are some obvious environmental pluses to giving up commutes, take-out lunches, and weekly printer paper deliveries, setting up a home office comes with its own opportunities to cut back on energy use, trim waste production, and condense your carbon footprint.</p>
<p>Here are a few quick suggestions on how to arrange your workspace for maximum productivity and where to find recycled materials for your home office.</p>
<h2>Find a Job</h2>
<p>First, talk to your boss about ways you can change your schedule or responsibilities so that you could do more of your work from home—even cutting your commute just two days a week can make a huge difference in your carbon output. Not sure what to say? Try these conversation starters. If your boss won&#8217;t be convinced, then it might be time to look for a new job—preferably a green one—or consider starting your own business.</p>
<h2>Get a Desk</h2>
<p>You&#8217;re about to start spending a whole lot of your time at this desk, so find one that fits your work style—whether you&#8217;re looking for lots of storage, minimalist design, or a modular unit. There are plenty of eco-friendly alternatives; look for models that use sustainable wood or recycled metal with non-toxic finishes. Even better? Buy vintage for a one-of-a-kind workspace.</p>
<h2>Stay in Touch</h2>
<p>No home office is complete without a computer, but pay attention to your needs before you buy the fanciest kind; if you&#8217;re just using it for word documents and internet research, you can likely make do without all the bells and whistles. Look into buying a used or refurbished one to save money and energy—or if you are buying new, look for a system that&#8217;s either Energy Star certified (meaning it uses less electricity) or EPEAT certified (meaning it was made without hazardous materials and processes). Either way, do consider splurging on a larger monitor: It&#8217;s better for your eyes.</p>

Your dorm room is a great place to go green, stay green, and display green. To become big man/woman on campus, you might want to read this article.</p>
<h2>Top Tips for Greening Your Dorm Room<img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-221" title="dorm-room" src="http://greenteamindy.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/dorm-room-300x195.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="195" /></h2>
<p><em>Shop Local:</em> Going away to college is often a teenager&#8217;s first chance to be away from home. That doesn&#8217;t mean you have to bring home with you. The impact of shipping your furnishings, etc. is a guaranteed failing grade for those who identify as green. Check out local shops and other options like&#8230;</p>
<p><em>Shop Used:</em> Enhance your college experience by choosing used, re-used, pre-owned, re-purposed, upcycled, and downcycled. As any wise greenie can tell you, just about anything you need (or think you need) is available without buying new.</p>
<p><em>&#8220;Shop&#8221; Free:</em> This price is right—especially for your average struggling student. Check local listings, websites, bulletin boards, or simply start your own exchange program. You&#8217;ll get an &#8220;A&#8221; in economics by choosing bartering over conspicuous consumption.</p>

<li>University of Vermont student Ross Nizle purchased a 102-watt solar panel to help take his dorm room off the grid</li>
<li>25,000 pounds of reusable goods were kept out of landfills by this year&#8217;s inaugural &#8220;Green Apple Move Out&#8221; event at NYU</li>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-217" title="Verizon-Wireless-Music-Center" src="http://greenteamindy.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/Verizon-Wireless-Music-Center-300x171.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="171" />The <strong>Verizon Wireless Music Center</strong> (formerly known as <strong>Deer Creek Music Center</strong>) is an outdoor amphitheater owned by Live Nation located in <strong>Noblesville, Indiana</strong>. The center is the largest outdoor music venue in central Indiana with 6,000 seats under a pavilion and 18,000 general admission lawn seats. It is used mainly for large concerts but is frequently a host for high school graduations and as recently as October 17, 2008, a public speech venue for Alaska Governor and 2008 Republican Vice Presidential Candidate Sarah Palin.</p>
<p>Verizon Wireless Music Center is a large open-air concert venue capable of hosting live, high-profile concerts. This facility is capable of hosting outdoor music festivals, such as Ozzfest, Van&#8217;s Warped Tour, and Farmaid.</p>
<p>When it was known as Deer Creek Music Center, the Grateful Dead performed on July 2, 1995, in one of their final concerts before their last venue at Soldier Field in Chicago, Illinois, on July 9, 1995. During the Dead&#8217;s visit, a number of fans stormed a rear fence, attempting to enter without paid admission. As a result, the Dead&#8217;s last concert at the facility on the following night was canceled. Musician Keller Williams memorialized this gate-crashing event in his song &#8220;Gate Crashers Suck.&#8221; This is where Rush&#8217;s Snakes &amp; Arrows Tour ended.</p>
<p>Verizon Wireless Music Center was ranked 5<sup>th</sup> in the nation for ticket sales in 2006.</p>
<p>On December 28, 2006, Live Nation, the owner of the music center, confirmed they were putting up for sale the 203 acres (0.82 km<sup>2</sup>) of land that currently holds the Verizon Wireless Music Center. Regardless of the sale, Live Nation said it was committed to the 2007 concert season.</p>
<p>As of June 9, 2007, the <a href="http://www.ibj.com/" target="_blank"><em>Indianapolis Business Journal</em></a> reported, &#8220;But no acceptable offers have been received, and several local brokers say the unofficial asking price of more than $40 million is outrageous.&#8221;</p>
<p>On August 15, 2007, the <em>Indianapolis Business Journal</em> had a new report stating &#8220;<strong>Noblesville&#8217;s</strong> Verizon Wireless Music Center is no longer for sale and will host a full lineup of shows in 2008, the facility&#8217;s general manager, Steve Finkel, told IBJ this afternoon.&#8221;</p>

<p>After a long weekend of backyard BBQs, sizzling veggies, marinated, grass-fed meats, tastes-like-steak tofu and other grilled up green goodies, we’re willing to bet your little Weber has taken a beating.</p>
<p>If your once-like-new grill racks have started to cake up in layers of black, here’s a simple, strange and sustainable way to get them clean.</p>
<ol>
<li>Heat up the grill super hot so it will be easy for the clumped up gook to scrape off.</li>
<li>Cut an onion in half.</li>
<li>Stab one half of the onion with a fork and then with the flat end of the onion pointing facedown, use the veggie-utensil combo to rub down the grate.</li>
</ol>
<p>This will ensure your grill works well and keeps food tasting fresh and delicious all summer season—without having to use nasty, chemical cleansers.</p>

<p>The Arts and Design District already houses a plethora of <a title="Indianapolis" href="http://greenteamindy.com/category/local-articles/indianapolis-indiana/">Indianapolis</a> art galleries, interior designers, Carmel restaurants, antique stores, showrooms and specialty shops, inside a congenial neighborhood called “Old Town Shops.” An eclectic mix of retail establishments, Carmel businesses and residential town homes and condominiums, the Carmel Arts &amp; Design District is considered a prime artists’ community in the Indiana.</p>
<p>The fresh but nostalgic idea behind the Carmel Arts and Design District is to create a Main Street of old. Some $10 million has been invested by Carmel to that end, going for distinctive features such as street lighting that looks like gas lamps decorated with live flower planters, brick sidewalks and charming signage and historic facades. Lifelike sculptures by J. Seward Johnson adorn the lamp post lined streets of the Arts &amp; Design District.</p>
<p>There are now two highly visible and towering brick gateways to mark the boundaries of the Arts and Design District, one at Fourth Street South and Range Line Road, and the other at Fourth Avenue East and Main Street. Soon to come are similar gateways at the western and southern borders. Flanked by decorative brick columns, they consist of a graceful metal arch span with a large sign atop that reads “Carmel Arts &amp; Design District.” You can’t miss it.</p>
<p>The Lurie Building, located at 30 Main Street, is to be one of the stars of the new Arts and Design District. With four stories encompassing 30,000 square feet of space, it is anchored by the owner’s Evan Lurie Fine Art Gallery, featuring contemporary Latin American and European artists, many of whom are signed exclusively to this gallery.</p>

Art exhibits galore, grand openings and re-openings, giveaways and promotions, live Indianapolis music at the authentic Irish pub Muldoon’s, and tons of programs at the local library are just a few of the ongoing Carmel things to do in the Carmel Arts and Design District.</p>
<p>The ever-popular<strong> </strong>Carmel International Arts Festival (CIAF), a yearly weekend event that draws local attendees as well as those from other nearby Indianapolis suburbs and Indy, takes place within the Carmel Arts and Design District, bringing much exposure and activity to the renovated area. This Indianapolis festival is a free, annual event that brings over 30,000 people each year. Summer ushers in the Rock the District festival, a free all-day celebration with live Carmel music, great food, and superb Carmel shopping. December in Carmel also warrants a stop in the district for ongoing events, holiday sales, and an amazingly uptown, hometown holiday feel.</p>
<p>At the end of 2008, more than 100 unique, attractive businesses were already up and running in the <strong>Carmel Arts and Design District</strong>. More redevelopment projects, they say, are in the works. Carmel, it seems, is determined to metamorphose into the star of Central Indiana.</p>
