Go Green - Go Aloeride!

The world's consciousness about preservation, recycling, and investment in our environmental future has exploded over the last few years. And nowhere in the world is this more evident than among celebrities in Hollywood. Many celebrities and others in the entertainment industry are leading the way by adopting a total Green-friendly lifestyle.

It has suddenly become very chic to GO GREEN in absolutely everything! In L.A. there are Green spas, Green furniture, Green stores, Green gifts, Green kiddie parties, and even an eco-friendly Green limo service for celebs. Electric and hybrid cars have literally taken over the freeways of Southern California-replacing the giant SUV's and trucks of the very recent past.

And if you still insist on driving into the parking lot of a Whole Foods supermarket in a gas guzzling SUV, you better be prepared to receive cold hard stares or even a full blown lecture from a complete stranger (or a celebrity,) on the errors of your ways! And for heaven's sake don't forget your recyclable clothe tote when you go shopping, because plastic bags are simply not available! So, in L.A. if you don't participate in Green then as Heidi Klum says, "You're (definitely) Out!"

But, this new found consciousness really does go far deeper. It is an appreciation of just how delicate our environment is, how it needs to be respected, cared for and nurtured. And as we move more fully into understanding our responsibility to the planet, we are also becoming even more acutely aware of the urgency to address the damage sustained to our own internal environment.

Celebs and others have been flocking en masse to spas (especially Green ones) in a quest to eliminate the toxins and repair cells from stress and pollution. But there is an honest recognition that external and topical treatments and even eating totally organic, are still limiting in what they can achieve. So the question becomes, what more can you do to help create a more perfect eco-balanced internal environment?
