Green Angel Training Program - Basic
...for people who care about our planet and our future...
Become an Eco-Ambassador by learning about sustainable best-practices, energy and water conservation, and potentially toxic ingredients that are in our personal care products, cosmetics, home, office and school cleansers.
What does being an Eco-Ambassador mean?
You can utilize your knowledge by speaking at parent association meetings at schools, or by making appointments at homes or businesses to discuss the products being used, the ramifications of their use, healthy alternatives, and an action plan. Or, you can simply become empowered by the information you’ve learned to extend ‘the conversation’ to people in your life.
