How To Tell If A Product Is Actually Eco-Friendly, From Alexandra Zissu (VIDEO)

How can we tell if a product is really eco-friendly? Green living expert and author Alexandra Zissu says that in order to really know if a product is green, you need to do your homework and be a smart consumer.

True green products will have a certification, not just a claim that it’s green. For guidance, you can use Alexandra’s website to see which products are truly green.
