Organic produce is tasty as well as earth-friendly.
Green isn't just the color of St. Patrick's Day. It's also the color of eco-friendly living. With that in mind, we bring you another way to go green with these ideas from author and environmental lifestyle expert Danny Seo on how to throw a party that's kind to the planet.

Skip the theme..
Themes are cute, but those specialized paper plates, streamers, banners and decorations end up in the local landfill.

Buy recyclable materials.
Buy beverages in aluminum cans and glass bottles that can be recycled. By buying wisely, you can make a huge impact. Glass and aluminum can be recycled into more glass bottles and aluminum cans, and the process never degrades the quality of the material. It can be reused over and over again. Plastic is tougher to recycle, and the process of recycling breaks down the chemical structure of the plastic each time it's recycled, weakening the material. Plastic has a limited number of resuses.

Keep the food local and organic.
Shop at your farmer's market for fresh produce and select organic wines and beers.
