Sexy Easy Changes to Green Your Love Life

6. Sleep with your neighbor.
A quickie with zero transit time is a genius way to let off steam without letting off CO2. Driving just 10 miles to spread the love generates 8 pounds of CO2 emissions. So keep it in the neighborhood and really get to know that cutie next door.

7. Toy around with safer sex toys.
Could a little love cause self-and-planet-harm? Unlike children’s toys, adult toys are often unregulated or untested for safety issues like the use of PVC and phthalates, both potential human carcinogens. Try “playing” with something a little more natural.  Choosing items that are organic and PVC-free helps you eliminate the risks.

8. Save animals, use Viagra.
Wait, really? Yes. An unfortunate number of people turn to “libido-enhancing” shark fins, seahorses and rhino penises for added mojo, which effectively encourages poaching of precious wildlife. Try banging the gong using the many sustainable natural options (like ginkgo biloba and ginseng) that have been touted as real fire starters.

9. Rub ‘em the right way.
Massage is a great way to get in the mood for love, and there are a plethora of natural products out there to help smooth the way. Feed the skin a healthy diet by choosing oils and bars made with organic or all natural ingredients. After all, the skin is the largest organ in the human body, and it readily absorbs most of what you put on it.

10. Trash your condoms.
Throwing condoms in the trash when sexy-time’s over is the better option, since when flushed, last night’s remains could end up ruining a perfectly good beach party. Some flushed rubber accessories might be overlooked by waste management workers and could end up in our waterways. Unfortunately, no one’s figured out a way to recycle ‘em yet, so just stick ‘em in the trash when done.
