The Importance of Green Pet Products
More and more people today are realizing the importance of ‘going green’ and that this process should include the family pet as well. There are many green pet products available on the market and these products are better for the environment and your pet. Switching to green pet products can improve your pet’s health by removing chemicals, artificial preservatives and fillers all while improving the nutritional content of their food, and help the planet by reducing the carbon footprint created through the manufacturing process through sustainable production practices.

You already know about the importance of nutrition in maintaining the health of your pet, and many non-green pet foods contain large amounts of reconstituted animal by-products that are considered to be unfit for human consumption. Green pet food products must meet USDA standards to be listed as organic. These green pet food products contain no unnatural preservatives and no artificial fillers or genetically altered products. These green products are also produced using more humane and sustainable practices.
Green pet products are also better for the environment as they are manufactured with sustainable techniques and recycled materials. This puts less stress on the planet’s resources and reduces the carbon footprint released by the manufacturing process. Some green pet products such as dog beds can be made from recycled and organic materials, and green pet cleaning products prevent dangerous and toxic chemicals from going down the drain and ending up in the water supply. Chemical free de-icing products, pesticide free flea medications and biodegradable pet waste cleanup bags are also good example of green pet products that reduce the amount of waste that can reenter the Earth.
Using green pet products is overall a healthier choice for you, your pets and for the environment. With all of the steps that need to be taken to help reduce the environmental stress we place on the planet, green pet products are certainly a good start.
