Living green with orchids - The Philippine Star » Lifestyle Features » Modern Living: "MANILA, Philippines - Orchid growers and plant lovers think that they are one step ahead of everyone when it comes to green living just because they grow a lot of beautiful plants which contribute to improving the air quality in our environment. Contrary to their belief, they are one of the biggest contributors to the destruction of our environment because of their continued and constant use of synthetic fertilizers and pesticides that poison our earth and pollute the air.
Frequent use of these chemicals may produce beautiful plants and blooms, but this poses a health hazard to human beings and all life forms. This is why organic gardening and farming are now being heavily promoted in the country. Unfortunately, green living with a garden is not limited to composting and organic farming. Green living calls for a change in lifestyle with a conscious effort of conserving our natural resources and lessening our carbon footprint on Mother Earth."
