Green RVing is the Real Deal in an Earthbound RV
What does it take to Go Green when you live a portion, or most, of your life in
an RV? Rving lends itself well to today's awareness of green products, renewable resources and renewable energy. RVers by the lifestyle's very nature are in tune with the environment.
Here are a few items to think about in your everyday RVing life, that will help you Go Green. Using small packages, to prevent waste, recycling plastic, paper and aluminum are all things most of us already do. Doing it in your RV is just a small bump in the road.
Replacing cleaning agents that are chemical based
with ones that contain natural ingredients is a healthy switch. Enzyme based,
formaldahyde and ammonia free chemicals are available for use in holding tanks to
eliminate bacteria
that causes odors in a safe and environmentally friendly manner.
Cleaning agents such as white vinegar and baking soda are easily stored for use in RV galleys and bathrooms, and will clean nearly anything. You'll find recipes for safe, eco-friendly cleaners that you can mix yourself at healthychild.org
Opening windows allowing fresh air to circulate improves the air quality inside of your RV as well as avoids using energy for heating and cooling. Plan your travels for warmer spots in cooler weather, and cooler spots in the height of the dog days of summer. You will save energy and enjoy your outdoor experience much more.
Stubborn odors can be masked in natural ways. Place some cinnamon, sage, cloves or lavender in a pan in some water. Bring it to a boil, then turn down and simmer for a few minutes. You'll love the warm and friendly aroma. Indoor plants are a nice addition inside of your RV and help filter the air as well. Flowering plants smell nice, and so does a sachet of dried flower petals.
The trend toward lighter weight towables has been increasing for two decades. Now with the introduction of the Earthbound RV travel trailer series made of V.O.C free recyclable materials, that are by nature more fuel efficient because of their low weight, the Green RV movement is coming full circle.
Solar Panels are routinely installed by RV Service Centers across the nation, and battery banks have made RVs self contained for years. Investing in Solar Panels is a serious committment to renewable energy and will save money in the long run on fuel for your generator. Most Solar Kits are expandable, so you can start with the basics and add panels as you need them.
No matter where you roam, our carbon footprint goes with you, so make sure you do your part to help make it as small as possible.

The RV industry is well overdue for change, and the industry pioneers behind Earthbound RV travel trailers have been diligently working on alternative materials, designs and construction methods, that they believe, will initiate that change.
Earthbound RV's objective is the introduction and distribution of a new, eco-friendly, fuel-efficient travel trailer into the US and Canadian marketplace. The travel trailer will revolutionize the towable RV industry with innovations never before seen in recreational vehicles. Earthbound RV will utilize lighter, recyclable, low organic volatile compound materials in an easily towed, family friendly RV, with an original, aerodynamic, automotive inspired design.
The founders of Earthbound RV have been working on the implementation of eco-friendly and family-friendly RV construction for over 5 years. Green travel trailers are the result. Earthbound RV are the original innovators.
