CARING FOR OUR BEAUTIFUL COAST
December 23, 2009
When you own a luxury home along one of America’s stunning coastlines, you belong to a small elite group of homeowners who enjoy private access to the unique pleasures that such an exceptional property provides. Along with the enjoyment comes a special responsibility.
The ecosystems along our shores need just the right conditions in order for them to thrive, and it is surprising how much of a difference one homeowner can make. The chemicals we use in our kitchens, bathrooms and on our lawns play a huge part in the future health of our coastal waters.
Try to find a natural way to clean. To help our oceans maintain the necessary but delicate balance for health, switch all your cleaning supplies over to natural, biodegradable products. Our ground waters can be
contaminated by chemicals contained in pesticides, plant fertilizers, used motor oil, paints, varnishes and thinners and pool care chemicals, which leave your home as wastewater. Properly disposing of potentially harmful materials can help reduce the amount of pollutants that enter the water. Your beautiful seaside property is yours to blissfully enjoy for a lifetime. Just be sure to remember the generations who will follow, and make the simple changes that will keep our oceans healthy.
